Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
value	boolean	The corresponding boolean value.

setExplosion(int value)

public void setExplosion(int value)

Specifies whether the parent element shall inverts its colors if the value is negative.

Parameters:

Parameter	Type	Description
value	boolean	The corresponding boolean value.

setName(String value)

public void setName(String value)

Sets the name of the series, if name is not set explicitly it is generated using index. By default returns Series plus one based index.

Examples:

Shows how to apply labels to data points in a line chart.

         Assert.assertEquals(series.getDataLabels().getCount(), 4);
     }

     Iterator enumerator = chart.getSeries().get(0).getDataLabels().iterator();
     while (enumerator.hasNext()) {
         Assert.assertEquals(enumerator.next().getSeparator(), ", ");

     }

     // For a cleaner looking graph, we can remove data labels individually.
     chart.getSeries().get(1).getDataLabels().get(2).clearFormat();
