Remove Gradient from Bars

Recommended Posts

Love the charts, love the gradient on the bars using the StackedColumn2D.swf file.

 

 

 

However the boss does not like the gradient colors in the stacked bars... or other charts....

 

 

 

How can I remove that to have the bars be solid and boring.

I'm using the 3D Stacked Column Double-Y-axis Line Combo Chart (StackedColumn3DLineDY.swf). whew!

 

 

 

1) Is there a 2D equivalent of this graph?

 

 

 

2) Is there any way to adjust the depth and angle of the 3D columns?

 

 

 

3) I noticed that on the 2D Stacked Column Chart you can change the gradient color for the columns by simply adding color='ffffff,ff0000' to the dataset element. On this 3D graph, however, you can either have the 3D lighting effects turned on or off. If they're turned on, the color you specify fades to a darker shade. If they're turned off, there is no gradient at all, and adding the color='ffffff,ff0000' bit doesn't seem to work for me.

 

 

 

I also noticed that the plotGradientColor attribute was not available in the data plot cosmetics for this graph, why would it be available for a 2d graph and not a 3d one?

You can use MSStackedColumn2DLineDY.swf and just provide a single dataset for stacked column.

I'm afraid no - as that is automatically detected and set.

In 3D, the gradient pattern is not definable, unless you change the code.

It's only applicable to a 2D graph.
