Spacing between categories
Reminder By default, the space between two data categories is 10 pixels.
Linux Caution: In Linux, this function requires a specific configuration. For more details, see The charts.
Example
// Espace entre deux catégories de données dans l'histogramme "MonGraphe" : 20 pixels
grColumnSpacing("MonGraphe", 20)
// Espace entre deux catégories de données dans l'histogramme "GRF_MonGraphe" : 15 pixels
grColumnSpacing(GRF_MonGraphe, 15)
Syntax
grColumnSpacing(<Chart name> , <Spacing>)
<Chart name>: Control name or character string
Name of the chart to be used. This name corresponds to:
  • the name of the chart defined programmatically with grCreate.
  • the name of the Chart control in the window, page or report editor.
Android Only Chart controls are available.
PHP Only interactive Chart controls are available.
<Spacing>: Integer
Spacing (in pixels) between two categories.
Remarks

Spacing

If the destination is large enough, the spacing is expressed as follows:
Spacing
If the destination does not allow spacing to be displayed, this is reduced to 0: the bars are therefore "glued" together.

Effect due to spacing

  • The spacing between two data categories has no effect on charts other than:
    • Column charts.
    • Funnel charts.
    • Minimum/Maximum Stock charts.
    • Waffle charts.
  • Any changes made with grColumnSpacing will take effect the next time grDraw is called.
