Chart column widths
How do I specify a minimum width for columns in a column chart?
The documentation very usefully says
columnStyle style
but there are no examples of the syntax and the intuitively obvious choice of
option name="charting.chart.columnStyle.maximumWidth"
does nothing.
Nor do these:
option name="charting.chart.columnStyle.spriteMinimumWidth"
option name="charting.chart.sprite.width"
In general the developer documentation would benefit greatly from more syntax explanation and examples. Can anyone advise what option or param is required to set sprite minimumWidth for a column chart?
Thanks

I realise that this doesn't quite cover minimumWidth but it is a start. I will look into minimumWidth

Hi, I have changed my answer again and I tested it this time. The answer allows you to control the width of the column chart cells

Hi,
The param (advanced XML) for specifying the width of a chart cell is:
<param name="charting.chart">column</param>
<param name="charting.chart.columnStyle.width">1</param>
This makes all of your column chart cells have a width of 1 pixel. Change the number as necessary

Nice. Now how about simple XML? Any syntax there?
