    public class AreaDemo
    {
        public static void AreaExample()
        {
            // Instantiating a Workbook object
            Workbook workbook = new Workbook();
            // Adding a new worksheet to the Workbook object
            int sheetIndex = workbook.Worksheets.Add();
            // Obtaining the reference of the newly added worksheet by passing its sheet index
            Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[sheetIndex];
            // Adding sample values to cells
            worksheet.Cells["A1"].PutValue(50);
            worksheet.Cells["A2"].PutValue(-100);
            worksheet.Cells["A3"].PutValue(150);
            // Adding a chart to the worksheet
            int chartIndex = worksheet.Charts.Add(ChartType.Area, 5, 0, 15, 5);
            // Accessing the instance of the newly added chart
            Chart chart = worksheet.Charts[chartIndex];
            // Adding NSeries (chart data source) to the chart ranging from "A1" cell to "A3"
            chart.NSeries.Add("A1:A3", true);

            // Accessing the area of the first NSeries
            Area area = chart.NSeries[0].Area;

            // Setting properties
            area.InvertIfNegative = true;
            area.ForegroundColor = Color.Red;
            area.BackgroundColor = Color.Yellow;
            area.Formatting = Aspose.Cells.Charts.FormattingType.Custom;
            area.Transparency = 0.5;

            // Saving the Excel file
            workbook.Save("AreaExample.xlsx");
            workbook.Save("AreaExample.pdf");
