Range Bar
Show AllShow All
Hide AllHide All

The Range Bar data visualization displays a 96 by 96 dpi bar image. The colored bar renders as half the height of the image, centered vertically. The amount of colored bar to render to the right of the Start argument (or to the left in the case of a negative value) is based on the Length argument. If the Length argument is zero, a diamond renders. 

The Minimum and Maximum arguments determine the range of data. The area between the Length argument and the Maximum argument is transparent (or between the Length and the Minimum in the case of a negative value).

Parameters

You can use static values or aggregate functions (e.g. Min or Max) to set the parameters. For more information on these and other aggregate functions, see the Common Functions topic.

Syntax

=RangeBar(Minimum, Maximum, Color, Start, Length)

Usage

Use an expression with this syntax in the BackgroundImage Value property of a TextBox or the Value property of an Image. This renders a bar in the color specified, the length of which changes depending on the number returned by the Length parameter, in the case of the simple example, GrossProfit.  If your data contains only positive values, Start corresponds with Minimum at the left edge of the DataBar. The area between the Length and the Maximum is transparent.
