Deviations

Deviations Config

See Deviation Configuration.

Semantic Axis

If Semantic Axis is activated, the axes of the deviation representations are drawn according to the Base Series' data type.

Axis Width

Determines the thickness of the deviation axis.

Deviation Good/Bad Color

Specify the colors for the deviations.

Negative Deviation Is Good

If positive deviations are not estimated as good (as for example, for actual cost-of-cost comparisons), activate this checkbox.

Show Deviation Labels

Show Deviation Labels controls the visibility of the deviations. If the option is deactivated, only the graphic deviation elements are visible, but not the exact values.

Textual Deviation

If no deviation diagrams are desired, but the deviations should appear as text columns, this can be set.

Deviation Label Size Factor

The size of the labeling of the texts in the deviation columns is determined according to the text size of the table (according to the IBCS). The default factor is 0.7: the font size multiplied by 0.7 gives the font size in the deviations. This factor can be adjusted.

Please note that there may be errors in the display for factors below 0.3 or above 1.2.
Outlier Mode

Choose the appearance of the outliers here. In the mode Short the outliers are shown as small triangles on the axis. In the mode Long they are drawn over the entire available area – according to the rules by IBCS.

Apply Pin Color, Pin Color

As a rule, the negative or positive deviation color (depending on the sign) is used for the color of the deviation pins in percentage deviations. If a different color is to be used for the pins, the Apply Pin Color property must be set to true and a Pin Color must be defined.

Deviations From NULL

This property affects whether a NULL value is interpreted as 0 or as non-existent in the calculation of the deviation. If the property is set to false, the value is considered non-existent and no deviation is drawn; otherwise the difference between 0 and the value is calculated as the deviation.

Standard Pin Heads

The Standard Pin Heads option displays the pinheads of the percentage deviations according to the IBCS.

Internal Scaling

The deviation diagrams are not scaled within the table by default. If a scaling is desired, however, this is possible by hooking this setting.
