Hi Aspose Team,
I am generating box and whisker chart using latest version of aspose.slide but it not generate chart as per expection due to select data issue. when i open it in powerpoint and select all data by right click on chart and selecting select data option it is changing output of chart which is actual output. so how can i select all the data from chart data workbook using C# coding. Please suggest.
@sdtechsupport.sirius,
I have observed your requirements and suggest you to please try using following sample code to set the chart data range by loading data from another file.
public static void TestChartData()
{
String path="C:\\Aspose Data\\";
Presentation pres = new Presentation();
IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.BoxAndWhisker, 50, 50, 500, 400);
var msln =chart.ChartData.ReadWorkbookStream();
chart.ChartData.ChartDataWorkbook.Clear(0);
chart.ChartData.Series.Clear();
chart.ChartData.Categories.Clear();
MemoryStream memStream1 = new MemoryStream();
Workbook worbook = new Workbook(path + "ChartData.xlsx");
MemoryStream memStream = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
worbook.Save(memStream, Aspose.Cells.SaveFormat.Xlsx);
memStream.Position = 0;
chart.ChartData.WriteWorkbookStream(memStream);
chart.ChartData.SetRange("Sheet1!$A$1:$D$23");
pres.Save(path+"data.pptx",Aspose.Slides.Export.SaveFormat.Pptx);
}
ChartData.zip (6.4 KB)
Thanks for giving sample code.
Using following line i can set range dynamically. If i don’t know last cell address having data, then how can i proceed further. For example in below line my last cell address is D23 but I am generating chart data sheet dynamically using coding so i don’t know last cell address so what if i don’t know last cell address. Please suggest.
chart.ChartData.SetRange(“Sheet1!$A$1:$D$23”);
I have observed your requirement and like to share that you have to figure this out on your end that what range you need to set for chart. As far as Aspose.Slides is concerned, it allows you to set the range for the chart and will generate the chart in accordance to set chart range.
Hi mudassir
I have attached same ChartData file which was given by you and just blank some of cell value in it. After doing this if i run following code it will giving me error of “overflow”. So If i given range by SetRange method if one of the cell value is blank which fall in range given in SetRange method it’s givning me error.
Please suggest.
public static void TestChartData()
{
String path=“C:\Aspose Data\”;
Presentation pres = new Presentation();
IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.BoxAndWhisker, 50, 50, 500, 400);
var msln =chart.ChartData.ReadWorkbookStream();
chart.ChartData.ChartDataWorkbook.Clear(0);
chart.ChartData.Series.Clear();
chart.ChartData.Categories.Clear();
MemoryStream memStream1 = new MemoryStream();
Workbook worbook = new Workbook(path + "ChartData.xlsx");
MemoryStream memStream = new System.IO.MemoryStream();
worbook.Save(memStream, Aspose.Cells.SaveFormat.Xlsx);
memStream.Position = 0;
chart.ChartData.WriteWorkbookStream(memStream);
chart.ChartData.SetRange("Sheet1!$A$1:$D$23");
pres.Save(path+"data.pptx",Aspose.Slides.Export.SaveFormat.Pptx);

I have observed your requirement and like to share in order to cater this issue, following statement is to be used in your sample code.
chart.DisplayBlanksAs = DisplayBlanksAsType.Zero;
However, even after use of this statement, there is still an issue for BoxAndWhisker chart. An issue with ID SLIDESNET-40172 has been created in our issue tracking to further investigate and resolve the issue. This thread has been linked with the issue so that you may be automatically notified once the issue will be fixed.
Hi Aspose Team,
Thank you for taking this into consideration for your issue tracking, however we would request if you could consider this on priority as we have a planned release of our application and we cannot proceed ahead with this issue not being resolved. Just to elaborate the issue, attaching both the raw data and the sample PPT again here for your reference.
Our main issue is that raw data will be in this format only (attached sample) including the blanks and the charts are not being generated properly in this case due to data range selection. We tried fixing it using set range function provided by your end but it is throwing error in case of blank cell vales ( which is a requirement) in specific cell ranges. Aspose.zip (2.2 MB)
Looking forward to your response on this asap.
I hope when the concerned issue will be resolved the issue related to setting range including blank cells will also get resolved. We will be able to share any good news with you as soon as the issue will be scheduled for investigation on its due turns and gets resolved.
@mudassir.fayyaz Thanks for taking this into consideration.
