ParseDirection property



The direction in which data to be plotted is parsed.

Syntax

Set:     Chart.setParseDirection(pDirection)
Get: pDirection = Chart.getParseDirection()

Applies to

Chart object.

Data type

integer.
Value Description
1 Parse by row.
2 Parse by column.

Usage

ParseDirection controls whether series are represented by the rows or columns in the data source. By default, Chart plots the data in the direction that minimizes the number of series. For example, if there are 3 rows and 4 columns, Chart plots data by row so that there are 3 series. Once Chart has chosen a default direction, it applies that default to new data sources as well. Therefore, you may want to override the default using ParseDirection.
