Data tables can clearly present data information, but when we want to intuitively see the trend of data change or the proportion of data for some complex and changeable data, data charts will be more representative, and will also be more image in presenting data information, and can also get more information that pure digital information cannot directly display.In the code below, you will be shown how to do this by using the free Free Spire XLS for.NET component.
Original data table:
C#
1 using Spire.Xls; 2 using System.Drawing; 3 using System.Drawing.Imaging; 4 5 namespace CreateChart_XLS 6 { 7 class Program 8 { 9 static void Main(string[] args) 10 { 11 //Create a Workbook Class instance, loading Excel File 12 Workbook workbook = new Workbook(); 13 workbook.LoadFromFile(@"C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\Sample.xlsx"); 14 15 //Get the first sheet 16 Worksheet sheet = workbook.Worksheets[0]; 17 18 //Set the name of the worksheet 19 sheet.Name = "Column Chart"; 20 sheet.GridLinesVisible = false; 21 22 //Create Column Chart 23 Chart chart = sheet.Charts.Add(ExcelChartType.ColumnClustered); 24 25 //Specify the data area used to generate the chart 26 chart.DataRange = sheet.Range["A2:G6"]; 27 chart.SeriesDataFromRange = false; 28 29 //Specify where the chart is located 30 chart.LeftColumn = 1; 31 chart.TopRow = 9; 32 chart.RightColumn = 12; 33 chart.BottomRow = 26; 34 35 //Set the name and font format of the chart 36 chart.ChartTitle = "Product Sales in the First Half Year(Unit: $10,000)"; 37 chart.ChartTitleArea.IsBold = true; 38 chart.ChartTitleArea.Size = 12; 39 40 //Set up X Axis coordinate name and font format 41 chart.PrimaryCategoryAxis.Title = "Product Category"; 42 chart.PrimaryCategoryAxis.Font.IsBold = true; 43 chart.PrimaryCategoryAxis.TitleArea.IsBold = false; 44 45 //Set up Y Axis coordinate name and font format 46 chart.PrimaryValueAxis.Title = "Sales volume"; 47 chart.PrimaryValueAxis.HasMajorGridLines = false; 48 chart.PrimaryValueAxis.TitleArea.TextRotationAngle = 90; 49 chart.PrimaryValueAxis.MinValue = 0.5; 50 chart.PrimaryValueAxis.TitleArea.IsBold = false; 51 52 //Set the position of the legend 53 chart.Legend.Position = LegendPositionType.Right; 54 55 //Save Document 56 workbook.SaveToFile("ColumnChart.xlsx", ExcelVersion.Version2013); 57 58 59 //After loading the generated graph Excel File 60 workbook.LoadFromFile("ColumnChart.xlsx"); 61 62 //Traverse the workbook to diagnose if it contains charts 63 Image[] images = workbook.SaveChartAsImage(sheet); 64 65 for (int i = 0; i < images.Length; i++) 66 { 67 //Save Chart as Picture 68 images[i].Save(string.Format("img-{0}.png", i), ImageFormat.Png); 69 } 70 } 71 } 72 }
The resulting chart file and picture are as follows:
