BUILT-IN MATHEMATICA SYMBOL

ChartElementFunction

ChartElementFunction
is an option for charting functions such as BarChart that gives a function to use to generate the primitives for rendering each chart element.

MORE INFORMATION

ChartElementFunction->f specifies that each chart element should be rendered with the graphics primitives given by .

ChartElementFunction uses a named function for generating chart elements.

Lists of built-in named functions for specific charting functions can be obtained from , etc.

In ChartElementFunction->f, the region argument to f is given as follows:

	BarChart,RectangleChart,Histogram,BubbleChart
	BarChart3D,RectangleChart3D,Histogram3D,BubbleChart3D
	PieChart,SectorChart
	PieChart3D, SectorChart3D

In ChartElementFunction->f, the values argument to f is given as follows:

	BarChart,BarChart3D,PieChart,PieChart3D	y
	RectangleChart,SectorChart
	RectangleChart3D, SectorChart3D,BubbleChart
	BubbleChart3D
	Histogram,Histogram3D	list

In the case of Histogram and Histogram3D the values given are those in the sublist of data associated with each bin.

With input data of form the metadata associated with is . With input data of the form the metadata associated with is .
