Copying a Chart

To copy a chart, use the Export and Import functions. Export saves the chart definition locally in an XML file. Edit the XML file as desired (for example, to change the chart name) and then import the XML file to create a new chart definition. To perform the export and import actions, your user role must have the Dashboards and Reports View and Dashboards and Reports Author permissions. Note that system charts can be exported using the Dashboards and Reports View permission.

To Copy a Chart:

  1. On the Analytics menu, click R6 Charts.
  2. Locate the chart group containing the desired chart in the tree on the left. Click the chart group to display the charts. Locate the desired chart in the list on the right, and check the box associated with the chart.
  3. Select Export in the More Actions drop-down list.
  4. Save the chart to a local folder.
  5. Edit the locally-saved XML file by using a text editor (such as Notepad) and change the chart name.
  6. Choose the destination chart group and select Import in the More Actions drop-down list. Select the edited XML file and import the chart definition.

Note for IE6 users

Because RiskVision uses secure communications between the browser and server (HTTPS), IE6 may report an error instead of downloading a PDF or other format file. The error is:

Internet Explorer cannot download <document> from <server>.

To work around this IE6-specific behavior, uncheck the IE6 option "Do not save encrypted pages to disk." This issue is not a problem in other browsers or other versions of Internet Explorer. For more information and a hotfix from Microsoft, see support.microsoft.com.
