Switching between 3D and 2D

Post by vcardona » Tue Apr 12, 2005 3:31 pm

Is there an easy way to switch a chart between 3D and 2D views without recreating the chart? I currently recreate the entire chart when a user toggles between 2D and 3D. However this loses any customizations that the user may have made to the chart. So I am looking to avoid doing that. I am only worried about pie and bar charts at this time.

Thanks in advance.

This is a limitation without a good workaround at present. In the future, I'd like to make it possible to "copy" settings from one plot or renderer to another plot or renderer, to make them more interchangeable. But it will have to wait till after 1.0.0 is released unfortunately.
