100% Stacked Column

To render a 100% stacked column series in your chart, you need to follow a few steps to configure it correctly. Here’s a concise guide on how to do this:

  • Set the series type: Define the series Type as StackingColumn100 in your chart configuration. This indicates that the data should be represented as a 100% stacked column chart, with segments that show the percentage contribution of each part.

Binding data with series

You can bind data to the chart using the DataSource property within the series configuration. This allows you to connect a JSON dataset or remote data to your chart. To display the data correctly, map the fields from the data to the chart series XName and YName properties.

Series customization

The following properties can be used to customize the 100% stacked column series.

Fill

The Fill property determines the color applied to the series.

The Fill property can be used to apply a gradient color to the 100% stacked column series. By configuring this property with gradient values, you can create a visually appealing effect in which the color transitions smoothly from one shade to another.

Opacity

The Opacity property specifies the transparency level of the fill. Adjusting this property allows you to control how opaque or transparent the fill color of the series appears.

Border

Use the Border property to customize the width, color and dasharray of the series border.

100% Cylindrical stacked column chart

To render a 100% cylindrical stacked column chart, set the ColumnFacet property to Cylinder in the chart series. This property transforms the regular 100% stacked columns into cylindrical shapes, enhancing the visual representation of the data.

Empty points

Data points with null or undefined values are considered empty. Empty data points are ignored and not plotted on the chart.

Mode

Use the Mode property to define how empty or missing data points are handled in the series. The default mode for empty points is Gap.

Fill

Use the Fill property to customize the fill color of empty points in the series.

Border

Use the Border property to customize the width and color of the border for empty points.

Corner radius

The CornerRadius property in the chart series is used to customize the corner radius for 100% stacked column series. This allows you to create 100% stacked columns with rounded corners, giving your chart a more polished appearance. You can customize each corner of the 100% stacked columns using the topLeft, topRight, bottomLeft, and bottomRight properties.

Point corner radius

We can customize the corner radius for individual points in the chart series using the PointRender event by setting the CornerRadius property in its event argument.

Events

Series render

The SeriesRender event allows you to customize series properties, such as data, fill, and name, before they are rendered on the chart.

Point render

The PointRender event allows you to customize each data point before it is rendered on the chart.
