  • boris graffiti 5.3 question about charts and % sign

    Posted by Emmanuel Duchemin on June 6, 2009 at 9:44 pm

    Hello guys
    I try to make a simple chart in FCP, using Boris graffiti 5.3.
    Everything looks nice, but I have a issue concerning the values.
    I use a pie chart, with percentages. In the value tab, I check values to have the values displayed
    SO the numbers are displayed, but NOT the % sign.
    And I need this %…

    Hi Emmaneul,

    You can display the percent sign in Graffiti for pie style charts. Here’s how:

    • create a Chart Container track with the values that you want to show
    • select the Chart Container so that it’s parameters are visible in the Controls Window
    • in the Values Tab, set the following:

    – set the “enable values” checkbox to the on or checked position
    – value type pop-up should be set to percentage
    – precision slider should be set to 0

    • In the Chart Tab, set the following:

    – set the use pop-up to Value and Percentage

    Hope this helps.

    Cheers,

    Peter.

    Thank you for your fast reply.
    But when I follow what you said I have a “/” sign after the % sign 🙁

    If you can please send me an email I’ll send you a Graffiti settings file that has this set up correctly. I followed the instructions that I posted in my last response and was able generate a pie chart with visible percent values so there must be something else that is preventing the numbers from being displayed on your system.

    My email address is peterm@borisfx.com.

    Cheers,

    Peter.
