Graph Labels NOT Showing Correctly

ModernElectric — Tue, 10 Sep 2013 15:21:27 GMT

Having issues with the titles (X-Axis) and (Y-Axis) in my graphs not working properly. I have it set in a Python script to make it "KWH_USAGE" but when the graph is created - it shows "kwh_usage"... Why is it only showing everything as lower case?

Also - I want to include the data from a specific field in a feature class to show in the title. So if I have 14884512 in a field called "TWACs_Number" - I want the title to include that. How would I write that?

Thank you

Chris,

I believe I was assisting your before. I think the title of the axis's being lowercase is a bug. I was able to reproduce this same behavior. I would recommend following up with Tech Support.

As for the title, you can use the 'getValue' method to retrieve the value of your field. Ex:

import arcpy from arcpy import env env.overwriteOutput = 1 env.workspace = r"C:\temp\data.gdb"  table = "Meters"  fields = ["METER_NUMBER"]  list = []  rows = arcpy.SearchCursor(table) for row in rows:     list.append(row.METER_NUMBER)  del row, rows  #remove duplicates from list list = dict.fromkeys(list) list = list.keys()  for n in list:     arcpy.TableSelect_analysis(table, r"in_memory\table_sel", "METER_NUMBER = " + str(n))          #get TWACs_Number value     for row in arcpy.SearchCursor(r"in_memory\table_sel"):         TWACs_Number = row.getValue("TWACs_Number")          out_graph_name = n     out_graph_pdf = r"C:\Temp" + "\\" + str(n) + ".pdf"     input_template = r"C:\Temp\KW Demand.grf"     input_data = r"in_memory\table_sel"      # Create the graph     graph = arcpy.Graph()      # Add a vertical bar series to the graph     graph.addSeriesBarVertical(input_data, "KW_DEMAND")      # Specify the title of the left axis     graph.graphAxis[0].title = "KW Demand"      # Specify the title of the bottom axis     graph.graphAxis[2].title = "Meter Number"      # Specify the title of the Graph     graph.graphPropsGeneral.title = TWACs_Number      # Output a graph, which is created in-memory     arcpy.MakeGraph_management(input_template, graph, out_graph_name)      # Save the graph as a PDF     arcpy.SaveGraph_management(out_graph_name, out_graph_pdf, "MAINTAIN_ASPECT_RATIO", 600, 375)

Jake-

Yes - huge help on one of my previous posts to get the Python script to create the graph. Nice to know that there is a bug in the tool/script. I have been trying multiple different things for the past few days to get it to work. I will send a note to Tech Support and see what can be done. Thank you for the help.

Chris

import arcpy
from arcpy import env
env.overwriteOutput = 1
env.workspace = r"C:\temp\data.gdb"

table = "Meters"

fields = ["METER_NUMBER"]

list = []

rows = arcpy.SearchCursor(table)
for row in rows:
    list.append(row.METER_NUMBER)

del row, rows

#remove duplicates from list
list = dict.fromkeys(list)
list = list.keys()

for n in list:
    arcpy.TableSelect_analysis(table, r"in_memory\table_sel", "METER_NUMBER = " + str(n))
    
    #get TWACs_Number value
    for row in arcpy.SearchCursor(r"in_memory\table_sel"):
        TWACs_Number = row.getValue("TWACs_Number")    

    out_graph_name = n
    out_graph_pdf = r"C:\Temp" + "\\" + str(n) + ".pdf"
    input_template = r"C:\Temp\KW Demand.grf"
    input_data = r"in_memory\table_sel"

    # Create the graph
    graph = arcpy.Graph()

    # Add a vertical bar series to the graph
    graph.addSeriesBarVertical(input_data, "KW_DEMAND")

    # Specify the title of the left axis
    graph.graphAxis[0].title = "KW Demand"

    # Specify the title of the bottom axis
    graph.graphAxis[2].title = "Meter Number"

    # Specify the title of the Graph
    graph.graphPropsGeneral.title = TWACs_Number

    # Output a graph, which is created in-memory
    arcpy.MakeGraph_management(input_template, graph, out_graph_name)

    # Save the graph as a PDF
    arcpy.SaveGraph_management(out_graph_name, out_graph_pdf, "MAINTAIN_ASPECT_RATIO", 600, 375)

Just ran into the same problem and am wondering if there is a workaround?

Thanks.
