Changing Pie chart to Bar chart

    I have just downloaded the trial version of the software and it looks to be exactly what we are looking for within our small business.

    I could do with some advice regarding bar/line charts. I wrote a simple query which displayed ok as a pie chart but when I changed the chart type to anything except pie/pie 3D it is blank. I tried putting in a dummy third column as suggested in the tutorial but it still did not display. See screenshots below.

    I also tried creating a barchart using a basic spreadsheet as a data source but could still not get it to work. Am I doing something wrong or is it a limitation of the trial software?

    Once you create one type of chart, it is not possible to change to a different type. For e.g in your case you created a Pie chart so in order to test the line or bar chart, create a new chart with the same query but before you click apply, select a line type.

    The trial software is fully functional so you should be able to achieve anything you needed. Feel free for any more queries or help.

    With the new release of InfoCaptor this restriction is removed. You can change the existing chart type as long as the SQL query returns the desired number of columns to support the chart type.
