Encapsulates the object that represents an area format.
Example:
//Instantiating a Workbook object
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
//Adding a new worksheet to the Workbook object
int sheetIndex = workbook.getWorksheets().add();
//Obtaining the reference of the newly added worksheet by passing its sheet index
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(sheetIndex);
//Adding a sample value to "A1" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A1").putValue(50);
//Adding a sample value to "A2" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A2").putValue(100);
//Adding a sample value to "A3" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A3").putValue(150);
//Adding a sample value to "B1" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("B1").putValue(60);
//Adding a sample value to "B2" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("B2").putValue(32);
//Adding a sample value to "B3" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("B3").putValue(50);
//Adding a chart to the worksheet
int chartIndex = worksheet.getCharts().add(ChartType.COLUMN, 5, 0, 15, 5);
//Accessing the instance of the newly added chart
Chart chart = worksheet.getCharts().get(chartIndex);
//Adding NSeries (chart data source) to the chart ranging from "A1" cell to "B3"
chart.getNSeries().add("A1:B3", true);
//Setting the foreground color of the plot area
chart.getPlotArea().getArea().setForegroundColor(Color.getBlue());
//Setting the foreground color of the chart area
chart.getChartArea().getArea().setForegroundColor(Color.getYellow());
//Setting the foreground color of the 1st NSeries area
chart.getNSeries().get(0).getArea().setForegroundColor(Color.getRed());
//Setting the foreground color of the area of the 1st NSeries point
chart.getNSeries().get(0).getPoints().get(0).getArea().setForegroundColor(Color.getCyan());
//Saving the Excel file
workbook.save("book1.xls");
public com.aspose.cells.Color getBackgroundColor() / public void setBackgroundColor(com.aspose.cells.Color value)
Gets or sets the background com.aspose.cells.Color of the Area.
getForegroundColor/setForegroundColor
public com.aspose.cells.Color getForegroundColor() / public void setForegroundColor(com.aspose.cells.Color value)
Gets or sets the foreground com.aspose.cells.Color.
getFormatting/setFormatting
public int getFormatting() / public void setFormatting(int value)
Represents the formatting of the area.
The value of the property is FormattingType integer constant.
getInvertIfNegative/setInvertIfNegative
public boolean getInvertIfNegative() / public void setInvertIfNegative(boolean value)
If the property is true and the value of chart point is a negative number,
the foreground color and background color will be exchanged.
Example:
//Instantiating a Workbook object
Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
//Adding a new worksheet to the Workbook object
int sheetIndex = workbook.getWorksheets().add();
//Obtaining the reference of the newly added worksheet by passing its sheet index
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.getWorksheets().get(sheetIndex);
//Adding a sample value to "A1" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A1").putValue(50);
//Adding a sample value to "A2" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A2").putValue(-100);
//Adding a sample value to "A3" cell
worksheet.getCells().get("A3").putValue(150);
//Adding a chart to the worksheet
int chartIndex = worksheet.getCharts().add(ChartType.COLUMN, 5, 0, 15, 5);
//Accessing the instance of the newly added chart
Chart chart = worksheet.getCharts().get(chartIndex);
//Adding NSeries (chart data source) to the chart ranging from "A1" cell to "A3"
chart.getNSeries().add("A1:A3", true);
chart.getNSeries().get(0).getArea().setInvertIfNegative(true);
//Setting the foreground color of the 1st NSeries area
chart.getNSeries().get(0).getArea().setForegroundColor(Color.getRed());
//Setting the background color of the 1st NSeries area.
//The displayed area color of second chart point will be the background color.
chart.getNSeries().get(0).getArea().setBackgroundColor(Color.getYellow());
