Chart Data Marker

Set Chart Marker Options

The markers can be set on chart data points inside particular series. In order to set chart marker options. Please follow the steps below:

• Instantiate Presentation class.
• Creating the default chart.
• Set the picture.
• Take first chart series.
• Add new data point.
• Write presentation to disk.

In the example given below, we have set the chart marker options on data points level.

// Creating empty presentation
var pres = new aspose.slides.Presentation();
try {
    // Access first slide
    var slide = pres.getSlides().get_Item(0);
    // Creating the default chart
    var chart = slide.getShapes().addChart(aspose.slides.ChartType.LineWithMarkers, 0, 0, 400, 400);
    // Getting the default chart data WorkSheet index
    var defaultWorksheetIndex = 0;
    // Getting the chart data WorkSheet
    var fact = chart.getChartData().getChartDataWorkbook();
    // Delete demo series
    chart.getChartData().getSeries().clear();
    // Add new series
    chart.getChartData().getSeries().add(fact.getCell(defaultWorksheetIndex, 1, 1, "Series 1"), chart.getType());
    // Load the picture 1
    var imgx1 = pres.getImages().addImage(java.newInstanceSync("java.io.FileInputStream", java.newInstanceSync("java.io.File", "Desert.jpg")));
    // Load the picture 2
    var imgx2 = pres.getImages().addImage(java.newInstanceSync("java.io.FileInputStream", java.newInstanceSync("java.io.File", "Tulips.jpg")));
    // Take first chart series
    var series = chart.getChartData().getSeries().get_Item(0);
    // Add new point (1:3) there.
    var point = series.getDataPoints().addDataPointForLineSeries(fact.getCell(defaultWorksheetIndex, 1, 1, 4.5));
    point.getMarker().getFormat().getFill().setFillType(aspose.slides.FillType.Picture);
    point.getMarker().getFormat().getFill().getPictureFillFormat().getPicture().setImage(imgx1);
    point = series.getDataPoints().addDataPointForLineSeries(fact.getCell(defaultWorksheetIndex, 2, 1, 2.5));
    point.getMarker().getFormat().getFill().setFillType(aspose.slides.FillType.Picture);
    point.getMarker().getFormat().getFill().getPictureFillFormat().getPicture().setImage(imgx2);
    point = series.getDataPoints().addDataPointForLineSeries(fact.getCell(defaultWorksheetIndex, 3, 1, 3.5));
    point.getMarker().getFormat().getFill().setFillType(aspose.slides.FillType.Picture);
    point.getMarker().getFormat().getFill().getPictureFillFormat().getPicture().setImage(imgx1);
    point = series.getDataPoints().addDataPointForLineSeries(fact.getCell(defaultWorksheetIndex, 4, 1, 4.5));
    point.getMarker().getFormat().getFill().setFillType(aspose.slides.FillType.Picture);
    point.getMarker().getFormat().getFill().getPictureFillFormat().getPicture().setImage(imgx2);
    // Changing the chart series marker
    series.getMarker().setSize(15);
    // Save presentation with chart
    pres.save("ScatterChart.pptx", aspose.slides.SaveFormat.Pptx);
} catch (e) {console.log(e);
} finally {
    if (pres != null) {
        pres.dispose();
    }
}
