How to plot time variable in VA

gyambqt — Sun, 31 May 2015 23:46:00 GMT

Hello Experts,

How do I plot time variable (like 00:05:05) again a numeric variable in VA? I tried time series but it only works for date variable rather than time variable...

If you use line chart then you lose the x axis label...(or scale).

I know there are many other charts can solve the problem but I really want to do the plot using chart similar to line chart

Thanks

Hello,

I am able to create a time series plot using a time variable:

Are you getting an error message when you try to apply a time variable to the time series plot? Also, what version of VA are you using? Can you show a screenshot of the properties for your time variable?

Thanks,

Sam

Hi gyambqt,

You can plot the time varaible in time series as well as bar chart which I had tried.May be there will be lot of other charts which can be used..

If you are getting issue while plotting the chart, try using "New Calculated Item" and use "Hour" or "Time Part" from "Date and Time Part" in operator section to get your variable in the appropriate format.

Thanks,
