View3DOptions Interface
Contains display options for three-dimensional charts.
Namespace: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.Charts
Assembly: DevExpress.Spreadsheet.v19.1.Core.dll
Declaration
Remarks
To access an object exposing the View3DOptions interface, use the ChartObject.View3D property. Utilize the object’s members to format the back wall (View3DOptions.BackWall), side wall (View3DOptions.SideWall) and floor (View3DOptions.Floor) of a 3-D chart; specify its depth (View3DOptions.DepthPercent), height (View3DOptions.HeightPercent) and perspective (View3DOptions.Perspective), or rotate the chart around the X-axis (View3DOptions.XRotation) or Y-axis (View3DOptions.YRotation).
Example
The example below demonstrates how to create the 3-D clustered column chart and adjust its appearance. In particular, the code specifies how to customize the chart walls and floor by using the View3DOptions.BackWall, View3DOptions.SideWall and View3DOptions.Floor properties.

A complete sample project is available at https://github.com/DevExpress-Examples/spreadsheet-document-server-chart-api-t132724
Worksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets["chartTask5"];
workbook.Worksheets.ActiveWorksheet = worksheet;
// Create a chart and specify its location.
Chart chart = worksheet.Charts.Add(ChartType.Column3DClustered, worksheet["B2:C8"]);
chart.TopLeftCell = worksheet.Cells["F2"];
chart.BottomRightCell = worksheet.Cells["L15"];
// Specify that each data point in the series has a different color.
chart.Views[0].VaryColors = true;
// Specify the series outline.
chart.Series[0].Outline.SetSolidFill(Color.AntiqueWhite);
// Hide the legend.
chart.Legend.Visible = false;
// Specify the side wall color.
chart.View3D.SideWall.Fill.SetSolidFill(Color.FromArgb(0xDC, 0xFA, 0xDD));
// Specify the pattern fill for the back wall.
chart.View3D.BackWall.Fill.SetPatternFill(Color.FromArgb(0x9C, 0xFB, 0x9F), Color.WhiteSmoke, DevExpress.Spreadsheet.Drawings.ShapeFillPatternType.DiagonalBrick);
SurfaceOptions floorOptions = chart.View3D.Floor;
// Specify the floor color.
floorOptions.Fill.SetSolidFill(Color.FromArgb(0xFA, 0xDC, 0xF9));
// Specify the floor border.
floorOptions.Outline.SetSolidFill(Color.FromArgb(0xB4, 0x95, 0xDE));
floorOptions.Outline.Width = 1.25;
