Pie chart wit not all components ... how to

[Giuseppe Insolera]

Hi All,

I need to create a Pie Chart components based displying only a subset of it.

eg: Issue1 => component1, component2, component3

      Issue2 => component2, component3

I need a chart that Disply only the percentage of  component2 and component3.

Is it possible to hide component1?

Pie Charts as any other dashboard gadget shows data based on a search query. So in your case, you just need to adapt the JQL to show only the issues which have component 2 and 3 set in them. But in this case the percentage will only be shown based on those numbers, not compared to the entire number of issues that you have in your project. 

So, if you have 100 issues in total, 4 with component2 and 6 with component3, if you restrict the piechart to just those two components, it will say that you will have a total of 10 issues, 40% with component2 and 60% with component3; when in fact they represent 4% and 6% out of the entire number of issues.

Yes, I know and it is the statistic I need.

My problem is into the Pie because follow my example the Pie show the component1 of the Issue1. I don't want it.

How do I to do to obtain it?

You don't.  The pie chart is built to display the information you feed into it, not part of the information and some other stuff you have no way of telling it.
