Formatting Y Error Bars on Excel Chart

Hi,

I have the following snippet of code to format an Y Error Bar in a line series for a chart in Excel:

With chart1.NSeries(1).YErrorBar
.DisplayType = Charts.ErrorBarDisplayType.Both
.Type = Charts.ErrorBarType.FixedValue
.Amount = 1
End With

What property do I need to set, so the error bar has a horizontal line at the end like this:

I’ve tried a few different properties but can’t seem to find the correct one to set the End Style to “Cap”.
I thought it might be ShowMarkerTTop, but that doesn’t seem to do it.

Thanks!

Thanks for using Aspose APIs.

Please use the Series.YErrorBar property for your needs. Here is the full runnable sample code for your reference. I have attached the output Excel file generated by the code as well as the screenshot.

C#

Workbook workbook = new Workbook();

Cells cells = workbook.Worksheets[0].Cells;
cells["a1"].PutValue(2);
cells["a2"].PutValue(5);
cells["a3"].PutValue(3);
cells["a4"].PutValue(6);
cells["b1"].PutValue(4);
cells["b2"].PutValue(3);
cells["b3"].PutValue(6);
cells["b4"].PutValue(7);

cells["C1"].PutValue("Q1");
cells["C2"].PutValue("Q2");
cells["C3"].PutValue("Y1");
cells["C4"].PutValue("Y2");

int chartIndex = workbook.Worksheets[0].Charts.Add(ChartType.Column, 11, 0, 27, 10);

Chart chart = workbook.Worksheets[0].Charts[chartIndex];
chart.NSeries.Add("A1:B4", true);

chart.NSeries.CategoryData = "C1:C4";

for (int i = 0; i < chart.NSeries.Count; i++)
{
    Series aseries = chart.NSeries[i];
    aseries.YErrorBar.DisplayType = ErrorBarDisplayType.Minus;
    aseries.YErrorBar.Type = ErrorBarType.FixedValue;
    aseries.YErrorBar.Amount = 5;
}

workbook.Save("outputYErrorBar.xlsx");
