A StackedSeries is a collection of values to be displayed on a graph. When multiple Stacked Series are added to the same PlotArea, values for a particular index (on any indexed stacked series) or a particular point in time (on any date-time stacked series) will literally be stacked on top of each other. There are four different groups of Stacked Series corresponding to the four different types of stacked charts (stacked area, stacked bar, stacked column and stacked line).  Each stacked series group will have both an indexed and a date-time type.  Stacked Pie and Scatter charts do not exist.

Stacked Area Series

An Area chart has two types of stacked series:

• DateTimeStackedAreaSeries

This is a collection of DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement each corresponding to a particular point in time that will be plotted as a Stacked Area chart. A DateTimeStackedAreaSeries uses DateTimeXAxis as the XAxis type and NumericYAxis as the YAxis type. It uses the Calendar class for setting the time portion of the values in the series.

The below code shows how to create and add elements to a DateTimeStackedAreaSeries.

[Java]  
     DateTimeStackedAreaSeries stackedAreaSeries = new DateTimeStackedAreaSeries();
     Calendar p0=Calendar.getInstance();
     p0.set(2004,0,1);
     Calendar p1=Calendar.getInstance();
     p1.set(2004,1,1);
     Calendar p2=Calendar.getInstance();
     p2.set(2004,2,1);
     DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement areaSeriesElement1 = new DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website A");
     areaSeriesElement1.getValues().add(51, p0);
     areaSeriesElement1.getValues().add(99, p1);
     areaSeriesElement1.getValues().add(42, p2);
     DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement areaSeriesElement2 = new DateTimeStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website B");
     areaSeriesElement2.getValues().add(11, p0);
     areaSeriesElement2.getValues().add(30, p1);
     areaSeriesElement2.getValues().add(22, p2);
     stackedAreaSeries.Add(areaSeriesElement1);
     stackedAreaSeries.Add(areaSeriesElement2);

• IndexedStackedAreaSeries

This is a collection of IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement that will be plotted as a StackedAreaSeries in indexed order.  An IndexedStackedAreaSeries uses an IndexedXAxis as the XAxis type and a NumericYAxis as the YAxis type.

The below code shows how to create and add elements to an IndexedStackedAreaSeries.

[Java]     
      IndexedStackedAreaSeries areaSeries = new IndexedStackedAreaSeries();
      IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement seriesElement1 = new IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website A");
      seriesElement1.getValues().add(new float[] { 5, 7, 9, 6 });
      IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement seriesElement2 = new IndexedStackedAreaSeriesElement("Website B");
      seriesElement2.getValues().add(new float[] { 4, 2, 5, 8 });
      areaSeries.add(seriesElement1);
      areaSeries.add(seriesElement2);

Stacked Bar Series

A Bar chart has two types of stacked series:

• DateTimeStackedBarSeries

This is a collection of DateTimeStackedBarSeriesElement each corresponding to a particular point in time that will be plotted as a Stacked Bar chart. A DateTimeStackedBarSeries uses DateTimeXAxis as the XAxis type and NumericYAxis as the YAxis type. It uses the Calendar class for setting the time portion of the values in the series.

The below code shows how to create and add elements to a DateTimeStackedBarSeries.

[Java]  
      DateTimeStackedBarSeries stackedBarSeries = new DateTimeStackedBarSeries();
      Calendar p0=Calendar.getInstance();
      p0.set(2004,0,1);
      Calendar p1=Calendar.getInstance();
      p1.set(2004,1,1);
      Calendar p2=Calendar.getInstance();
      p2.set(2004,2,1);
      DateTimeStackedBarSeriesElement barSeriesElement1 = new DateTimeStackedBarSeriesElement("Website A");
      barSeriesElement1.getValues().add(51, p0);
      barSeriesElement1.getValues().add(99, p1);
      barSeriesElement1.getValues().add(42, p2);
      DateTimeStackedBarSeriesElement barSeriesElement2 = new DateTimeStackedBarSeriesElement("Website B");
      barSeriesElement2.getValues().add(11, p0);
      barSeriesElement2.getValues().add(30, p1);
      barSeriesElement2.getValues().add(22, p2);
      stackedBarSeries.add(barSeriesElement1);
      stackedBarSeries.add(barSeriesElement2);

• IndexedStackedBarSeries

This is a collection of IndexedStackedBarSeriesElement that will be plotted as a StackedBarSeries in indexed order.  An IndexedStackedBarSeries uses an IndexedXAxis as the XAxis type and a NumericYAxis as the YAxis type.

Stacked Column Series

A Column chart has two types of stacked series:

• DateTimeStackedColumnSeries

This is a collection of DateTimeStackedColumnSeriesElement each corresponding to a particular point in time that will be plotted as a Stacked Column chart.
