Hi Serron,

For the chart type you mentioned, it may be more appropriate to use the 3D surface chart in ChartDirector. I have attached a 3D surface chart for your reference. The attached 3D surface chart is plotting "x * sin(y) + y * sin(x)". The 3D view angle is configurable. You may refer to the "Surface Chart (1)" sample code for an example. (You may look for "Surface Chart (1)" from the ChartDirector documentation index.)

For the 3D bar chart, I have also attached a 3D bar chart for your reference. ChartDirector currently only supports one view projection for 3D bar chart. The view angle is not configurable. You can specify the color to use for each bar. You may refer to the "Depth Bar Chart" sample code for an example. (You may look for "Depth Bar Chart" from the ChartDirector documentation index.)

Hope this can help.

Regards
Peter Kwan
