Creating a Stacked Bar chart using a script [message #1053496]

*Sorry for the bubble posting, I hope that is the right forum now*

Hi all,

I'm trying to create a dynamic Stacked Bar chart.
I have found an example that shows how to create a simple bar chart using a script in the "beforeFactory",
but I can't figure out how make it display as a stacked bar.
meaning which part of the Birt API is controlling that "Optional Y Series Grouping" setting.

I have attached a sample report.
When you view it in HTML you see 3 parts:
1. a table that displays all the data that I got in the dataset
2. a Stacked bar chart that I created using Birt eclipse and the dataset from item 1 (hard coded), this chart is using the "PRODUCTCODE" column as the "Optional Y Series Grouping" to group the data.
3. a bar chart that I create dynamically using the dataset from item 1.

comment: This is not a real-life example just a sample report that I created as a test.

What I'm trying to do, is to create exactly the same chart as in item 2 but dynamically. The problem is that I cannot find neither an example nor the API calls to set the "Optional Y Series Grouping" of that chart.

Your help will be greatly appreciated,

Shlomi

I looks like the setGrouping() method is what you'll want to use for the optional y series grouping. I put a link to the Chart API's in your other post. Let me know if this helps.
