Floating Bar Charts
Each series in a stacking bar chart can be either hidden (where the series is charted as a blank set) or excluded (where the series is not considered part of the chart data). Use the SeriesDisplay property of the Chart2DDataObject to determine if each series in the chart is either shown, hidden or excluded.
In the following examples, the third series is shown, hidden, and then excluded.
