flash charts

As far as BI EE is concerned, Flash charts offer greater quality and interactivity than raster based image formats like PNG or JPEG.

BI Presentation Services however do offer you the choice of having charts render in vector based Flash or SVG formats, or as raster based PNG or JPEG images.

The way to do that is to modify the instanceconfig.xml file and specify the chart format thy heart desires. If your Oracle BI data directory is "C:\OracleBIData" then the instanceconfig.xml file can be found under the C:\OracleBIData\web\config folder.


Open the instanceconfig.xml file using a text editor and insert these three lines in the file:

<charts>
<defaultimagetype>PNG</defaultimagetype>
</charts>
