Charting: highlight final column in series differently
Posted: Tue Apr 29, 2014 7:09 am
Hallo Support,
I have been requested to create a bar chart with a single series where the final column has a different colour, as in the example:
To do this, I add a condition on the series, which in code looks as follows:
Unfortunately, this has two drawbacks:
1). at runtime in code, I must access this condition and replace the artificial value "30" with the real value of the final column. This is not such a problem and only requires a couple of lines of code.
2). The StiChartCondition only allows me to define a single colour as the first argument. This means that the other columns all have a nice gradient to them but the final column can only have one fill-colour.
Is there any way I can set up the series in the MRT to say -> take the final column and give it style XX? By the way, the number of columns can vary between 3 and 7.
Thanks and regards,
John Kitching
