This example demonstrates bars of cylinder shape.
ChartDirector supports bars in cylindrical or arbitrary polygonal shapes. The shape are specified using
BarLayer.setBarShape or
BarLayer.setBarShape2. In this example, the cylindrical shape is illustrated.
See
Shape Specification on how built-in and custom shapes are defined in ChartDirector.
