A combined range category chart is a composite chart allowing two or more "simple" category charts share a single range axis. |
|
This is what combined range category chart looks like:
When a "simple" category chart is added as a sub-chart to a combined range category chart, is has the following differences from its "standalone" version:
| • | No Range Axes and Fixed Range Axis Space properties, since Range Axis is a part of parent combined chart. |
| • | No Orientation property, since it inherits the orientation of parent combined chart. |
| • | No chart common properties, since the parent combined chart has its own set of chart common properties. |
| • | No widget component default properties, except for the Bindings property, since it is not rendered separately. |
Custom Properties of Sub-charts
Every "simple" category chart added as a sub-chart to a combined range category chart has several additional properties:
Weight
The weight determines how much of the parent chart's area is assigned to this sub-chart. For example, if parent has three sub-charts with weights of 1, 2 and 4, the relative amount of space assigned to
each sub-chart is 1/7, 2/7 and 4/7 (where the 7 is the sum of the individual weights).
