Hi,

I have just received a very strange request for the formatting of a funnel that is part of the demo company dashboard I am working on. The first part I know you can do because I have seen it in the examples but I cannot work out which attributes control it try as I might. The last part I am not sure about at all. The funnel displays the various components of the company revenue "pipeline", and associates a value with each "slice".

First, the funnel I am currently displaying is 3D but is "tilted backwards", showing the base of the neck rather than the top of the funnel as in the examples. What is it that controls this formatting? I have tried various properties that are set in the example but nothing seems to change the display at all.

Second, I have been asked to add an extra "white" or "transparent" slice to the top of the funnel to signify that the funnel "is not full" - i.e. the company could still make more. I get the concept, and I think that the slice will have to be white rather than transparent. This I have done, but this "dummy" slice also gets a label applied (which I understand due to the way that the funnel is set up), but I do not want a label on this slice as it in effect means nothing. Is there a way for me to have labels for all slices of the funnel bar this one?

Regards,
Steve

Regards the first point, found it! Knew it had to be there, but I could net see it for looking:   

With (PipelineChart) 
      .Projection.SetPredefinedProjection(PredefinedProjection.Orthogonal) 
      .LightModel.SetPredefinedLightModel(PredefinedLightModel.ShinyCameraLight)
      .Projection.Elevation = 6
End With

Just need to know about the labels now ...

Hi Steve,

You can hide data labels per data point - the following code snippet shows how to disable the first data label on a funnel:

NDataLabelStyle dataLabelStyle = new NDataLabelStyle();
dataLabelStyle.Visible = false;
funnel.DataLabelStyles[0] = dataLabelStyle;

The same applies to all series as well as for other data point attributes (like fill, stroke etc.).
Let us know if you meet any problems or have any questions.
