Type Properties Help

This property page is where you control the look of the bars in the bar chart.

Each row of bars shares the same properties.  Select the row of data you wish to work on, by selecting from the tree on the left.
You can set the shape of the bar to be cubic, cylindrical or flat, or lines to be bubbled or as shards.
The position setting controls where this row is drawn in relation to the previous row.  To do a stacked chart, set the position of this row to "Stacked".  To make this row not be stacked, select "Next row".
Choose from a wide variety of colors.  You can set the gradient start color and end color.
Set the transparency where 0% means the bar is not transparent at all.

You can also paste any image you like onto the surface of the bar!
To load a file from your hard disk, press the "Browse Files" button.
To paste an image from your clipboard, press the "Paste Image" button.
The simplest way to get an image in your clipboard is to find a webpage with you image, right click the image and select copy.  You can then use the "Paste Image" button as above.
The "Clear" button blanks out the image and the "Rotate" button rotates the image 90 degrees.

The picture you select is displayed as a badge on the bar.

Press the "Ok" button to save your changes.
Otherwise select a different part of the tree to edit other properties.
