Bar Graphs - orienatation
Posted: Sat Mar 27, 2010 4:57 am
I have a bar graph with origin set in a such a way so some of the bars are above the line, while the others are below it.
If bar style is set to Cone (or Inverted Cone) then all the cones will either start or end on the origin line (which is fine!)
Please note, though, that the cones below origin line are using border color to paint the cone and the brush color to draw the borders... strange.
But if I change the style to Arrow or Pyramid (or their inverted versions) the situation is totally different!
Now all of them will start or end at the bottom! What I'd like, is a graph where my arrows are either all pointing towards the origin line or away from it (same with pyramids). Can it be just another option, so it would work for us and not break someone else's graphs?
Also, the Cylinder looks just really strange:
Since you can see bottoms of some of them and tops of the others, it just looks broken (especially since rectangles do not have this problem).
