Examples

The following example demonstrates how to set the overlap for a chart series group and render the resulting chart on a form:

using (Presentation pres = new Presentation())
{
    IChart chart = pres.Slides[0].Shapes.AddChart(ChartType.ClusteredColumn, 10, 10, 600, 300);
    IChartSeriesCollection series = chart.ChartData.Series;
    series[0].ParentSeriesGroup.Overlap = 55; // Set overlap to 55%

    var image=pres.Slides[0].GetImage(1, 1);
    image.Save("image.png",ImageFormat.Png);
}
