  • 1.  Cognos Charts with nested chart members - border formats

    Posted 4 days ago

    Hi all.

    With a Cognos chart (the pre CA ones), when you nest members on an axis you have an option to display as nested or concatenated.

    When you display as nested you end up with a chart that looks like :

    Does anyone know of a method to control the borders draw around the nested members? 

    I have tried a few things but have never been able to change the borders from a solid black line. Given how many formatting options there are on a chart I must not have found the option that controls these borders. Normally these charts are so flexible and let you format anything, so it must be doable!

    I gave up on that quite a while ago. Let's hope someone comes up with a genius idea.

    The only thing I have found is that the borders respect the axis label font colour.
