#Remarks

Set the HistogramSeriesOptions.OverflowType property to Fixed and use the OverflowValue property to create the overflow bin for all points that are above the specified value.

The following example demonstrates how to create a histogram chart and display the overflow bin:

// Create a histogram chart and specify its location.
Chart chart = worksheet.Charts.Add(ChartType.Histogram, worksheet["B2:B21"]);
chart.TopLeftCell = worksheet.Cells["D2"];
chart.BottomRightCell = worksheet.Cells["K18"];

// Specify histogram series options.
var options = chart.Series[0].LayoutOptions.Histogram;
options.BinType = HistogramBinType.BinWidth;
options.BinWidth = 20;
// Create the overflow bin
// for all values that are above 90.
options.OverflowType = HistogramOverflowType.Fixed;
options.OverflowValue = 90;

// Specify the gap width.
chart.Series[0].GapWidth = 10;

// Add the chart title.
chart.Title.Visible = true;
chart.Title.SetValue("Exam Score Distribution");
