Name | Value | Description | |||
exOverlaidBarsNone | 0 | No overlaid bars are shown ( default ). | |||
exOverlaidBarsOffset | 1 |
The overlaid bars are shown using a different vertical offset . The Overlaid(exOverlaidBarsOffset) specifies the vertical offset, in
pixels, to display the overlaid bars. The Overlaid(exOverlaidBarsTransparent)
specifies the percent of transparency being applied to bars in the same item
that are not moved or resized. By default, the Overlaid(
exOverlaidBarsOffset) property is 3 pixels. The ItemBar(exBarOffset)
property specifies the vertical offset to display the bar. The
exOverlaidBarsOffset flag can be combined with
exOverlaidBarsTransparent or exOverlaidBarsIncludeCaption flag. This option
does NOT change
the height of the item.
If three bars get intersected each other, the first is shown on the top, the second on the middle, and the third on the bottom. Click here to watch a movie on how the exOverlaidBarsOffset mechanism works.
| |||
exOverlaidBarsIntersect | 2 |
The overlaid portion is shown using a different type of bar. The Overlaid(exOverlaidBarsIntersect)
specifies the name of the bar to be displayed on the portion that laid over
bars. By default, the Overlaid(exOverlaidBarsIntersect) property is empty,
so nothing is displayed if the Overlaid is exOverlaidBarsIntersect. You MUST
specify the name of the task to display the
portion that covers the bars if the Overlaid is exOverlaidBarsIntersect. The
exOverlaidBarsIntersect flag can be combined with exOverlaidBarsTransparent flag.
This option does NOT change
the height of the item.
The intersection between bars is shown with a different color, pattern, shape or EBN object. Click here to watch a movie on how the exOverlaidBarsIntersect mechanism works.
| |||
exOverlaidBarsStack | 3 |
The bars that covers each other are shown as a stack. This option changes
the height of the item so the bars that covers each other are displayed
entirely. The Overlaid(exOverlaidBarsStack) specifies the
distance in pixels between two bars that covers each other. The Overlaid(exOverlaidBarsTransparent)
specifies the percent of transparency being applied to bars in the same item
that are not moved or resized. The exOverlaidBarsStack flag can be combined
with
exOverlaidBarsStackAutoArrange, exOverlaidBarsTransparent or
exOverlaidBarsIncludeCaption flag. The ItemHeight
property specifies the height of the item. The ItemMaxHeight
property specifies the maximum height for the item. Use the ScrollBySingleLine
property to allow the entire chart to be scrollable ( using items with
different heigths ).
The bars get arranged into a stack. If the exOverlaidBarsStackAutoArrange flag is not used, each bar is shown on a row, else the bars get automatically arranged. Click here to watch a movie on how the exOverlaidBarsStack + exOverlaidBarsStackAutoArrange mechanism works.
| |||
exOverlaidBarsCascade | 4 |
The bars gets arranged as a cascade with the z-order being indicated by ItemBar(exBarOverlaidCascade) key.
Arrange the bars on the same level for those with the same exBarOverlaidCascade
key, and on a different level for bars with a different exBarOverlaidCascade
key like in the following picture ( The K1, K2, K3 are being arranged on the
level A, while the T1, T2, and T3 on level B ). This option changes the height of the item so the bars that covers each other are displayed entirely.
The difference between cascade and stack is that if two bars with the same exBarOverlaidCascade key are shown in the same level if they do not intersect, and two bars with a different exBarOverlaidCascade key shows in different levels like shown in the following screen shot. The bars get arranged into a cascade based on the key ( exOverlaidBarsCascade ). The T1, T2, T3 are shown on the same level, as they have the same exBarOverlaidCascade key, and does not intersect the K1, K2, K3 level. The bars get arranged into a stack (exOverlaidBarsStack ).

| |||
exOverlaidBarsTransparent | 256 | The overlaid portion is shown using a semi-transparent color. The Overlaid(exOverlaidBarsTransparent) specifies the percent of transparency being applied to the covered bar. By default, the Overlaid( exOverlaidBarsTransparent) property is 50 ( semi-transparent ). The ItemBar(exBarTransparent) property specifies the vertical offset to display the bar. The exOverlaidBarsTransparent flag maybe combined with exOverlaidBarsOffset, exOverlaidBarsIntersect or exOverlaidBarsStack flag. | |||
exOverlaidBarsStackAutoArrange | 512 | The overlaid stack is automatically arranged for best fit in the item. The exOverlaidBarsStackAutoArrange flag can be combined with exOverlaidBarsStack flag only. | |||
exOverlaidBarsIncludeCaption | 4096 | The overlaid mechanism includes the bar's caption. Use the ItemBar(exBarCaption) property to specify a caption being displayed with the bar. Use the ItemBar(exBarHAlignCaption) property to specify the alignment of the bar's caption or to specify whether the caption is displayed inside or outside of the bar. For instance, you can use the exOverlaidBarsIncludeCaption flag to specify whether the caption of the bar does not cover with other bars. The exOverlaidBarsIncludeCaption flag can be combined with exOverlaidBarsOffset or exOverlaidBarsStack flags. | |||
exOverlaidBarsStrict | 8192 |
The overlaid mechanism includes only bars in the same group ( OverlaidGroup property ) but of different types.
This flag can be used in combination with:
exOverlaidBarsOffset,
exOverlaidBarsIntersect,
exOverlaidBarsStack or exOverlaidBarsCascade. For instance, you can use this
option to stack or cascade a specified type of bar when it get intersected with
other type of bars.
