FileMaker Bar Charts

Submitted by eow on Sun, 05/31/2009 - 07:02

This is a followup to my FileMaker Dashboard Post.  I figured out that making bar charts with pure native FM is even easier then my original idea.  You can use a simple global repeating text field to create as many different bar charts as you want with out having to modify the database schema. 

Download the sample file here.

UPDATE:  just fixed the download link!

A solution to your challenge

Hello Todd,

Thank you very much for your nice idea of using conditional formatting to show bars. I took your challenge and have a solution for it. The solution makes it possible to increase and decrease the length of the bar with drag and drop. It's also possible to move the bar, even between records.

Here is the URL to the solution:
