How to format X/Y/Z Axis and Data Series of chart using .NET

Hi there,


My requirement is to generate the chart shown in RequiredChart.docx. The chart that I’ve drawn using Aspose.Words is in AsposeChart.docx. How do I format the chart generated by Aspose to make it appear as in RequiredChart.docx?

1) Format y-axis as percentage with no decimal places
2) Increase the width of the bar and decrease the distance between them
3) Rotate the x-axis labels so that we can see all of them
4) Adjust the font and font size for both x and y axes
5) Show tick marks on the x axis

Thanks,

Manish

Code:
var doc = new Document();
var builder = new DocumentBuilder(doc);

// Insert Column chart.
Shape shape = builder.InsertChart(ChartType.Column, 432, 252);
Chart chart = shape.Chart;

string[] categories = new[]

chart.Series.Clear();
