: Hi Mark...what is the delta shown on the legend for pie charts? How is it calculated? I have checked the board and see the pie charts are for one day not a range.

: Does the right click command/date range do anything with pie charts? I am viewing a pie of my sub portfolios.

: I am trying to see the change in my portfolio value from day 1 to day n by trying to change the date range. Is that possible?

: Thx

Hi AK,

This is the change in value from the day before. You can customize the legend, and see the description of all the legend fields by right mouse clicking on the graph legend, and choosing "Graph Options / Legend Text...". From that dialog, if you press "Insert Field" you will see all the available fields for that graph type. When you select one, the description is shown in the bottom of the dialog.

The Date Range... command does affect pie charts, but only the ending date matters for these graphs.

To see the change in portfolio value use a "Portfolio Value" graph instead. There is no legend field that will give you the data you're looking for, but you can read it off the graph. You can also create a custom report with the "Change in value (between)" field, which will give you the number you're looking for.

Thanks,
Mark
