Configure a Pie chart

Configure a Pie chart object to get data from a project node or a database.
  1. In Project view, in UI, right-click a container and then select New > Data controls > Pie chart.
  2. In Properties, create a dynamic link between the Model property and a node.
    Selected node Combo box
    Database object Values contained in database tables.
    Project node Values of attributes or properties of all direct child nodes.

    For more information about dynamic links, see Create dynamic links.

  3. (optional) Specify the kind of items to display in the object by setting ItemKind.
    Tip:

    The ItemKind property is automatically set with the object or variable type recognized among the child nodes.

    For example, if the model is based on a folder node that contains several instances of a Motor object type, ItemKind is automatically set with the reference to the Motor type. In this case, the values that display are the attributes or properties of different instances (Motor1, Motor2, Motor3, and so on).

  4. Configure chart labels by creating a dynamic link between Label and a variable argument such as, @BrowseName.
