[CLOSED] Quick Bar Grapg Question - Space betweensets of bars..

I have created a nice bar graph. I compares a two fiscal years of actual units by month. Each fiscal year has its own color. On the graph I needed to add FiscalMonthNumber(01-12), MonthDesc(Jul, Aug, Sep...) and FiscalYear. I hid FiscalMonthNumber and FiscalYear. I am left with two bars per month (one color for each of the two Fiscal Years) ordered by: Jul, Aug, Sep....etc.

All the bars are equi-distant from each other. Between each **month** I'd like to add some spacing so everything is not run together.

I found a Bar Spacing option...altering it does nothing. (unless you must switch on/off some other feature first)

I tried adding this to my code:
setRiserBarGroupSpacing(100);

Nothing.

Any ideas how I can tell it to spread each subsequent set of bars a little further out as the month changes.

FYI:
I also tried: setRiserWidth(30); this shrinks EVERY bar. I just want some space BETWEEN the change in months.

A CrossTab graph does this automatically... somehow... but a crosstab graph lacks certain other functionality I need.

Hi Robert,

setRiserWidth(); and setRiserBarGroupSpacing(); work together. However, setRiserBarGroupSpacing(); only affects bars that are within one group. Would you please post an image of your current bar graph (and obfuscate any sensitive data if necessary) so that we can get an idea of what you're seeing?

Thanks and regards,

Kathryn
