Hi All,

Please can i know how to show the dates in historgrame full view when printing? When i print histograme with bar chart, i could see the dates when printing. When i move histogram to full view when print it, the dates just dissapeared

Is this something going wrong with my settings or maybe Asta doesnt has a dates view when we use histogram in full view more to print?

 

Thank you.

Hi Mike

Try this:

In the Print Options -

1. Set to show date at the foot of the page.

2. Set Vertical max 5 lines

Then

Summarise everything so that you only have one summary bar at the top.

Drag the top of the histogram to the top of the chart view - just under the date lines.

Preview the print - the 2nd page should be your histogram with the dates at the bottom.

In version 12 you do not need an app to generate a graph - just select the histogram view with "chart" and it exports the data and the graph.

Best regards

Hi Mike,

Thank you for the advice and hope you had a brilliant and resful weekend. Can i know if there is anyway to show the calender in full histogram view when printing without exporting data into excel? 

P.S. I learnt about exporting histogram to Excel in my Asta Trainings a few years ago but I never tried to use it at work so I am not very confident to use it. I remember I have to download a plugin then click the plugin and click next buttons. I am not very familiar and therefore I am not confident of using it. 

Many thanks,

Planner.

Hi Mike

A simple way round is to export the histogram to excell.
