Given below is the list of 3D charts that fall under the Area Chart category:

Area Chart

Use a 3D area chart to compare trends in two or more data series over a period of time or in specific categories, so that data can be viewed side by side.

Note: To view a chart in 3D, in the ChartAreas property open the ChartArea Collection Editor and set the ProjectionType property to Orthogonal.
Chart Information
ChartType Area3D

Number of Series 1 or more
Marker Support Series or Data Point
Custom Properties The LineBackdrop property gets or sets the backdrop information for the 3D line.
The Thickness property gets or sets the thickness of the 3D line.
The Width property gets or sets the width of the 3D line.

Below is an example of how to set the custom chart properties at run time for a 3D area chart as shown for the first series in the image above.

Me.ChartControl1.Series(0).Properties("Width") = 30.0F
C#
Copy Code
this.ChartControl1.Series[0].Properties["LineBackdrop"] = new GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Chart.Graphics.Backdrop(System.Drawing.Color.Red, ((System.Byte)(150)));
this.ChartControl1.Series[0].Properties["Thickness"] = 5f;
this.ChartControl1.Series[0].Properties["Width"] = 30f;
