MSCombi3D z-axis

[mikestreeton]

I have been using the MSCombi3D to generate column graphs. The order of items on the chart and the legend does not seem correct. When I render the example XML (see below) from the web site it draws 2005 at the back 2006 in the middle and 2004 at the front. The XML says 2006 first, 2005 second, 2004 third. Also the legend is drawn front to back e.g. 2004, 2006 and then 2004, when I try with some of my data it is drawn as back to front on the z-axis.

 

 

 

Any ideas

 

 

 

Many Thanks

Hello,

Welcome to FusionCharts Forum.

We tested your XMl and it is working fine.

Would it be possible for you to send a screen-shot of the issue you are facing?

Awaiting your reply.

Hello,

Could you please use the chartOrder in the <chart> element and see if this helps.

 

Please set chartOrder= 'column,area,line' .

chartOrder sets the order by which different types of charts will appear. The value can be any combination of 'column', 'line' or 'area', each separeted by a comma. By default, the order is: line, column, area. You can change to any order you like. E.g. 'column, area, line' or 'line, area'.

I hope this helps you.

Thanks I can see this working.

 

 

 

The issue is still have is with just using columns, in the xml you specify data series in the order A B C, they are drawn ok, but the legend will read C B A. Is there a way of reversing the legend

 

 

 

Many Thanks

Hello,

I'm afraid, like some other charts, the MSCombi3D chart does not support the reverseLegend attribute, as of now.

Thanks a lot for your suggestion. We have made a note of the same.
