Hi...can u help me please

need to know how exactly we provide the backgradient color for a chart

Hi,


See a sample code below for your reference, in the example, we have set gradient color for the Chart’s plot area.

Sample code:


Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
//Set default font
Style style = workbook.DefaultStyle;
style.Font.Name = “Tahoma”;
workbook.DefaultStyle = style;
Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];
//Set the name of worksheet
sheet.Name = “Data”;
Cells cells = workbook.Worksheets[0].Cells;
//Put a value into a cell
cells[“A1”].PutValue(“Region”);
cells[“A2”].PutValue(“France”);
cells[“A3”].PutValue(“Germany”);
cells[“A4”].PutValue(“England”);
cells[“A5”].PutValue(“Sweden”);
cells[“A6”].PutValue(“Italy”);
cells[“A7”].PutValue(“Spain”);
cells[“A8”].PutValue(“Portugal”);
cells[“B1”].PutValue(“Sale”);
cells[“B2”].PutValue(70000);
cells[“B3”].PutValue(55000);
cells[“B4”].PutValue(30000);
cells[“B5”].PutValue(40000);
cells[“B6”].PutValue(35000);
cells[“B7”].PutValue(32000);
cells[“B8”].PutValue(10000);

int sheetIndex = workbook.Worksheets.Add();
sheet = workbook.Worksheets[sheetIndex];
//Set the name of worksheet
sheet.Name = “Chart”;
//Create first chart
int chartIndex = 0;
chartIndex = sheet.Charts.Add(ChartType.Doughnut,1,1,25,10);
Chart chart = sheet.Charts[chartIndex];
//Set properties of chart
chart.PlotArea.Area.ForegroundColor = Color.Coral;
chart.PlotArea.Area.FillFormat.SetTwoColorGradient(Color.Yellow,Color.White,GradientStyleType.Vertical,2);
chart.PlotArea.Border.IsVisible = false;
//Set properties of chart title
chart.Title.Text = “Sales By Region”;
chart.Title.TextFont.Color = Color.Blue;
chart.Title.TextFont.IsBold = true;
chart.Title.TextFont.Size = 12;
//Set properties of nseries
chart.NSeries.Add(“Data!B2,Data!B4,Data!B6,Data!B8”, true);
chart.NSeries.CategoryData = “Data!A2,Data!A4,Data!A6,Data!A8”;
chart.NSeries.IsColorVaried = true;
//Set the ChartArea
ChartArea chartarea = chart.ChartArea;
chartarea.Area.Formatting = FormattingType.Custom;
chartarea.Area.FillFormat.Texture = TextureType.BlueTissuePaper;
chart.NSeries[0].DataLabels.IsPercentageShown = true;
chart.NSeries[0].DataLabels.IsValueShown = true;
chart.IsLegendShown = false;
//Save the excel file
workbook.Save(“d:\test\doughnut_chart1.xls”);

Thank you.

Hi,

Thanks for your posting and using Aspose.Cells for .NET.

Please use the Style.SetTwoColorGradient() method for your needs. Please see the following code for your more help.

I have also attached the output file generated by this code for your reference.

C#


Workbook workbook = new Workbook();


Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];


Cell cell = worksheet.Cells[“D4”];


Style style = cell.GetStyle();

style.SetTwoColorGradient(Color.Green, Color.Red, GradientStyleType.DiagonalDown, 1);


cell.SetStyle(style);



workbook.Save(“output.xlsx”);

Thank you for the solution…its working :slight_smile:
