Subtypes

Listed below are the Line Bar Combo graph subtypes.

Note: Line Bar Combo graphs only use Vertical Bars.

Basic

The graph depicted in Example 13.8 is a basic Line Bar Combo graph.

If you don't specify a subtype for a Line Bar Combo graph in PopChart XML, PopChart Server will assume that it is of the Basic subtype. Or, to specify the Basic subtype explicitly, set the SubType attribute of your Graph element to Basic, as in the example below.

<Graph Name='graph' Type='Line Bar' SubType='Basic'>

Line-Stacked Bar Combo

The Line-Stacked Bar Combo subtype for Line Bar Combo graphs works much like a standard Line Bar Combo graph, except it uses stacked bars instead of bars. The two graphs below illustrate the difference:


By default, in a Line-Stacked Bar Combo graph only the first data series is displayed as a line. All other data series are displayed as segments in the stacked bars.

To create a Line-Stacked Bar Combo graph in PopChart XML, you should set the SubType attribute of your Graph element to Stacked. The tag below shows how this is done.

<Graph Name='graph' Type='Line Bar' SubType='Stacked'>
