1532424 - Bars in single dimensional chart should start from co-ordinate(0,0) in Crystal Reports

• Bars in single dimensional chart leave blank space on x-axis from co-ordinate(0,0) .
• Bars of single dimensional bar chart should appear from extreme left.

• Crystal Reports XI R2
• Crystal Reports 2008

1) Create a sample Crystal Report on the Xtreme Sample Database.

2) Create a blank formula(e.g: Formula1).

3) Insert a "Side by side bar chart".

4) In the chart expert> "data" > select the blank formula (Formula1) under "on change of" section.

5) Select more than one fields under "Show Value(s)".

6) Click on "OK".

7) Bars in chart leave some blank space on x-axis from co-ordinate(0,0).

This is by design and chart's bars try to accumulate the centre position of the chart ( leaving equal blank spaces from the left as well as the right side).

To workaround this,follow the below steps:

1. Right click on chart.
2. Go to Chart options > "appearance" .
3. Under "overlap" drag the slider to the maximum value.
4. click on "OK". 
5. Bars will start from extreme left (0,0) position of the chart.
