ChartDirector 7.1 (.NET Edition)

Rotated Area Chart




This example demonstrates swapping the x and y axes to produce an rotated area chart in which the area goes from left to right (instead of bottom to top).

The x and y axes in the example are configured as follows:

The area in this chart is filled using a gradient color created with BaseChart.gradientColor.
