Bar
Properties
In the Object Properties
window, double-click on barProperties
in the Property Name field to bring
up the Bar Properties dialog. In the Bar Properties dialog you can assign
a Color and Fill Pattern to each bar in the graph. NOTE: Before assigning attributes to
bars in your bar graph, it is recommended that you first attach the graph to data.
Bar - There is one entry for each bar that is
currently displaying data in
the bar graph. The Color and Fill
Pattern columns list the current settings for each bar.
Color - Select the 
button in the Color column and choose from the palette to set the color
of the bar. Close the Color
Chooser window. Fill Pattern -
Select the
button in the Fill Pattern column and choose from the palette to set
the fill pattern of the bar.
Close the Fill Pattern window. NOTE: Fill patterns in your bar graph are ignored unless the
barGradientStyle property is set to None.
Add Bar Property -
Click to add a Bar Property entry. This does not add
a bar to your graph, it allows you to set properties for bars that will display
data that is not yet available. This is useful if the data attachment is not
available when you setup your bar graph, or if the number of rows or columns
returned by your data attachment varies. Delete Bar Property - Removes the last
bar property entry from the Bar Properties dialog.
