A combination chart uses dual axes to display data of different magnitudes. It combines line, column, and area charts, and supports complex visualizations such as stacked and 100% stacked charts. For example, you can show trends across different projects.
Example
Configure Data
-
In the Charts section of the component library, find Combination chart and drag it onto the canvas.
-
Click Select a dataset and add data as shown in the figure below.
Configure Styles
Position and Size
In the configuration pane, you can adjust the following settings for the component:
-
Adjust the component's alignment (①). Options include left, center, and right.
-
Adjust the component's position (②). Set its X and Y coordinates, relative to the top-left corner of the canvas.
-
Adjust the component's rotation (③). Set the rotation angle.
-
Adjust the component's size (④). Set its width (W) and height (H).

Plot Area
In the Plot area section, configure the style of the combination chart:
-
Color Palette: Sets the color scheme for the chart.

Line Type: Sets the line type. Options are Curve and Straight.
-
Null value handling: When data is null, you can choose to skip it, set it to 0 (the line remains continuous), or break the line.

When you enable the option to show all data labels, the system adjusts their positions to prevent overlapping. If too many data labels exist, some may not appear when they extend beyond the axis area. You can also select Allow Data Labels to Overlap.
