Bar series objects are created by the bar
or barh
functions. Each hggroup
element contains a single patch object.
The properties of the bar series are
showbaseline
baseline
basevalue
The property showbaseline
flags whether the baseline of the bar
series is displayed (default is "on"
). The handle of the graphics
object representing the baseline is given by the baseline
property and
the y-value of the baseline by the basevalue
property.
Changes to any of these properties are propagated to the other members of the bar series and to the baseline itself. Equally, changes in the properties of the base line itself are propagated to the members of the corresponding bar series.
barwidth
barlayout
horizontal
The property barwidth
is the width of the bar corresponding to
the width variable passed to bar
or barh. Whether the
bar series is "grouped"
or "stacked"
is determined by the
barlayout
property and whether the bars are horizontal or
vertical by the horizontal
property.
Changes to any of these property are propagated to the other members of the bar series.
linewidth
linestyle
The line width and style of the edge of the patch objects making up the bars. See Line Styles.
edgecolor
facecolor
The line and fill color of the patch objects making up the bars. See Colors.
xdata
The nominal x positions of the bars. Changes in this property and propagated to the other members of the bar series.
ydata
The y value of the bars in the hggroup
.
xdatasource
ydatasource
Data source variables.
