Detailed Description#

In bar charts, bars are defined as bar sets that contain one data value for each category. The position of a bar is specified by the category and its height by the data value. Bar series that contain multiple bar sets group together bars that belong to the same category. The way the bars are displayed is determined by the subclass of this class chosen to create the bar chart.

If a QValueAxis is used instead of QBarCategoryAxis for the main bar axis, the bars are grouped around the index value of the category.

See the bar chart example to learn how to use the QBarSeries class to create a simple bar chart.

class PySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries#

Note

Properties can be used directly when from __feature__ import true_property is used or via accessor functions otherwise.

property PᅟySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries.barWidth: float#

This property holds The width of the bars of the series..

The unit of width is the unit of the x-axis. The minimum width for bars is zero, and negative values are treated as zero. Setting the width to zero means that the width of the bar on the screen is one pixel regardless of the scale of the x-axis. Bars wider than zero are scaled using the x-axis scale.

Note

When used with QBarSeries , this value specifies the width of a group of bars instead of that of a single bar.

Access functions:
property PᅟySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries.count: int#

This property holds The number of bar sets in a bar series..

Access functions:
property PᅟySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries.labelsAngle: float#

This property holds The angle of the value labels in degrees..

Access functions:
property PᅟySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries.labelsFormat: str#

This property holds The format used for showing labels in a bar series..

QAbstractBarSeries supports the following format tag:

@value

The value of the bar

For example, the following usage of the format tags would produce labels that show the value followed by the unit (u):

series->setLabelsFormat("@value u");

By default, the labels show the value of the bar. For the percent bar series, % is added after the value. The labels are shown on the plot area, if the bars are close to each other, the labels may overlap.

Description

QAbstractBarSeries.LabelsCenter

Label is located in the center of the bar.

QAbstractBarSeries.LabelsInsideEnd

Label is located inside the bar at the top.

PySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries.append(sets)#
Parameters:

sets

Return type:

bool

Adds a list of bar sets specified by sets to a bar series and takes ownership of the sets. Returns true if all sets were appended successfully. If any of the sets is null or was previously appended to the series, nothing is appended and this function returns false. If any of the sets appears in the list more than once, nothing is appended and this function returns false.

PySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries.append(set)
Parameters:

setPySide6.QtCharts.QBarSet

Return type:

bool

Adds a set of bars specified by set to the bar series and takes ownership of it. If the set is null or it already belongs to the series, it will not be appended. Returns true if appending succeeded.

PySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries.barSets()#

Returns a list of bar sets in a bar series. Keeps the ownership of the bar sets.

PySide6.QtCharts.QAbstractBarSeries.barWidth()#
Return type:

float

Returns the width of the bars of the series.
