ProjectionMode Property
Returns or sets a ChartProjectionModeEnum constant indicating the viewing perspective of a three-dimensional chart. Read/write.
| ChartProjectionModeEnum can be one of these ChartProjectionModeEnum constants. |
| chProjectionModeOrthograph Perspective is not applied in this view. The advantage to using this type of projection is that the vertical lines remain vertical, making some charts easier to read. |
| chProjectionModePerspective Provides the most realistic 3-D appearance. Objects farther away converge towards a vanishing point. This is the default projection. |
expression.ProjectionMode
expression Required. An expression that returns a ChChart object.
Example
This example converts the first chart in Chartspace1 to a 3-D Column chart and then sets the projection mode of the chart.
Sub SetExtrudeAngle()
Dim cht3DColumn
Dim chConstants
Set chConstants = Chartspace1.Constants
' Set a variable to the first chart in Chartspace1.
Set cht3DColumn = ChartSpace1.Charts(0)
' Change the chart to a 3D Column chart.
cht3DColumn.Type = chChartTypeColumnClustered3D
' Sets the projection mode to orthographic.
cht3DColumn.ProjectionMode = chConstants.chProjectionModeOrthographic
' Sets the extrusion angle.
cht3DColumn.ExtrudeAngle = 75
End Sub
