    Hi,

    I'm trying to display a CRM Pie chart on a page. How ​could I display percentages rather than the actual aggregate values for a series?

    Regards,

    Shan

    Well , I managed to achieve this in CRM by customiz​ing the xml of the chart and importing it back. However, it still is displaying numbers in the portal widget even after refreshing meta data.

    Here's the series section from Chart's xml file. I've ​changed IsValueShownAsLabel​ and added Label and LabelFormat which did the trick in CRM. However, no effect in the portal.

    <Series ShadowOffset="0" IsValueShownAsLabel="False" Label="#PERCENT" Font="{0}, 9.5px" LabelForeColor="59, 59, 59" CustomProperties="PieLabelStyle=Inside, PieDrawingStyle=Default" ChartType="pie" LabelFormat="#0.##%">
              <SmartLabelStyle Enabled="True" />

    Please let me know which property I need to change in the widget.

    Hello Shan,

    Percentage based charts are currently not supported by the Charting widgets in TPC. This was a lapse on our part and this functionality will be included in an upcoming TPC 3.x release.

    In the meantime, the only way for TPC to display true percentage values is if the data from CRM is coming back as a percentage value. For example: 0.5 would be 50%. You can change the label format string once the data is in percentage values to {0:p} which would convert 0.5 > 50.0%.

    Best Regards,
    Clinton
