## Detailed Description

This type manages the series specific visual elements, as well as the series data (via a data proxy).

Bar3DSeries supports the following format tags for itemLabelFormat:

@rowTitle | Title from row axis
@colTitle | Title from column axis
@valueTitle | Title from value axis
@rowIdx | Visible row index. Localized using the graph locale.
@colIdx | Visible column index. Localized using the graph locale.
@rowLabel | Label from row axis
@colLabel | Label from column axis
@valueLabel | Item value formatted using the format of the value axis attached to the graph. For more information, see labelFormat.
@seriesName | Name of the series
%<format spec> | Item value in the specified format. Formatted using the same rules as labelFormat.

For a more complete description, see QBar3DSeries.

## Property Documentation

### baseColor : color

The base color of the series.

See also colorStyle and GraphsTheme.seriesColors.

### baseGradient : Gradient

The base gradient of the series.

See also colorStyle.

### colorStyle : GraphsTheme.ColorStyle

The color style for the series.

See also GraphsTheme.ColorStyle.

### columnLabels : list

The optional column labels for the array. Indexes in this array match column indexes in rows. If the list is shorter than the longest row, all columns will not get labels.

### dataArray : BarDataArray

Holds the reference of the data array.

dataArrayChanged signal is emitted when data array is set, unless newDataArray is identical to the previous one.

Note: Before doing anything regarding the dataArray, a series must be created for the relevant proxy.

### dataProxy : BarDataProxy

The active data proxy. The series assumes ownership of any proxy set to it and deletes any previously set proxy when a new one is added. The proxy cannot be null or set to another series.

### invalidSelectionPosition : point `[read-only]`

A constant property providing an invalid position for selection. This position is assigned to the selectedBar property to clear the selection from this series.

See also GraphsItem3D.clearSelection().

### itemLabel : string `[read-only]`

The formatted item label. If there is no selected item or the selected item is not visible, returns an empty string.

See also itemLabelFormat.

### itemLabelFormat : string

The label format for data items in this series. This format is used for single item labels, for example, when an item is selected. How the format is interpreted depends on series type.

See also Bar3DSeries, Scatter3DSeries, and Surface3DSeries.

### itemLabelVisible : bool

If `true`, item labels are drawn as floating labels in the graph. Otherwise, item labels are not drawn. To show the item label in an external control, this property is set to `false`. Defaults to `true`.

See also itemLabelFormat and itemLabel.

### lightingMode : Abstract3DSeries.LightingMode `[since 6.10]`

The lighting mode of the items in the series. The default value is QAbstract3DSeries::LightingMode::Shaded

This property was introduced in Qt 6.10.

See also QAbstract3DSeries::LightingMode.

### mesh : Abstract3DSeries.Mesh

The mesh of the items in the series, or the selection pointer in case of Surface3DSeries. If the mesh is Abstract3DSeries.Mesh.UserDefined, then the userDefinedMesh property must also be set for items to render properly. The default value depends on the graph type.

See also QAbstract3DSeries::Mesh.

### meshAngle : real

A convenience property for defining the series rotation angle in degrees.

Note: When reading this property, it is calculated from the Abstract3DSeries.meshRotation value using floating point precision and always returns a value from zero to 360 degrees.

See also Abstract3DSeries.meshRotation.

### meshRotation : quaternion

The mesh rotation that is applied to all items of the series. The rotation should be a normalized quaternion. For those series types that support item specific rotation, the rotations are multiplied together. Bar3DSeries ignores any rotation that is not around the y-axis. Surface3DSeries applies the rotation only to the selection pointer. Defaults to no rotation.

### meshSmooth : bool

If `true`, smooth versions of predefined meshes set via the mesh property are used. This property does not affect custom meshes used when the mesh is set to Abstract3DSeries.Mesh.UserDefined. Defaults to `false`.

### multiHighlightColor : color

The multiple item highlight color of the series.

See also colorStyle and GraphsTheme.multiHighlightColor.

### multiHighlightGradient : Gradient

The multiple item highlight gradient of the series.

See also colorStyle and GraphsTheme.multiHighlightGradient.

### name : string

The series name. It can be used in item label format with the tag `@seriesName`.

See also itemLabelFormat.

### rowColors : list<Color>

This property can be used to draw the rows of the series in different colors. The GraphsTheme.colorStyle must be set to `Uniform` to use this property.

Note: If the property is set and the theme is changed, the rowColors list is not cleared automatically.

See also QGraphsTheme::ColorStyle::Uniform.

### rowLabels : list

The optional row labels for the array. Indexes in this array match the row indexes in the data array. If the list is shorter than the number of rows, all rows will not get labels.

### selectedBar : point

The bar in the series that is selected.

The position of the selected bar is specified as a row and column in the data array of the series.

Only one bar can be selected at a time.

To clear the selection from this series, assign invalidSelectionPosition as the position.

If this series is added to a graph, the graph can adjust the selection according to user interaction or if it becomes invalid. Selecting a bar on another added series will also clear the selection.

Removing rows from or inserting rows into the series before the row of the selected bar will adjust the selection so that the same bar will stay selected.

See also GraphsItem3D.clearSelection().

### singleHighlightColor : color

The single item highlight color of the series.

See also colorStyle and GraphsTheme.singleHighlightColor.

### singleHighlightGradient : Gradient

The single item highlight gradient of the series.

See also colorStyle and GraphsTheme.singleHighlightGradient.

### type : Abstract3DSeries.SeriesType `[read-only]`

The type of the series. One of the QAbstract3DSeries::SeriesType values.

### userDefinedMesh : string

The filename for a user defined custom mesh for objects that is used when mesh is Abstract3DSeries.Mesh.UserDefined.

Note: The file needs to be in the QtQuick3D mesh format. Use the `balsam` conversion tool to create a mesh from other 3D model formats.

### visible : bool

The visibility of the series. If `false`, the series is not rendered.
