Hi Geeks,

I have created a custom waterfall chart using silveright 3 charting toolkit but my chart is unable to handle the negative values.

Pointers and suggestions are most welcome.

If you wish I can share the code snippet.

Thanks

Solution 1

Set the minimum axis value to something less than 0 (the lowest value that your data represents + 1).

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your suggestions, I have already tried setting the minimum property to less than 0 but it did not work for me. In this case chart does not draw Y axis.

I have uploaded my customized chart file at

Please take a look and let me know what am I missing here.

Thanks again!

The chart should be able to do this automatically.
