    Data Bar Rule
    In This Topic

    The data bar rule in conditional formatting displays a bar in the cell on the basis of cell values entered in a range. This rule can be added using the methods of the IDataBar interface.

    Refer to the following example code to add data bar rule to a range of cells in a worksheet.

    Java
    Copy Code 
    // Adding Data Bar Rule
Object[][] data=new Object[][]
{
    {1},
    {2},
    {3},
    {4},
    {5}
};
worksheet.getRange("A1:A5").setValue(data);
        
IDataBar dataBar = worksheet.getRange("A1:A5").getFormatConditions().addDatabar();
        
dataBar.getMinPoint().setType(ConditionValueTypes.LowestValue);
dataBar.getMinPoint().setValue(null);
dataBar.getMaxPoint().setType(ConditionValueTypes.HighestValue);
dataBar.getMaxPoint().setValue(null);
        
dataBar.setBarFillType(DataBarFillType.Solid);
dataBar.getBarColor().setColor(Color.GetGreen());
dataBar.setDirection(DataBarDirection.Context);
dataBar.getAxisColor().setColor(Color.GetRed());
dataBar.setAxisPosition(DataBarAxisPosition.Automatic);
dataBar.getNegativeBarFormat().setBorderColorType(DataBarNegativeColorType.Color);
dataBar.getNegativeBarFormat().getBorderColor().setColor(Color.FromArgb(128,0,212));
dataBar.getNegativeBarFormat().setColorType(DataBarNegativeColorType.Color);
dataBar.getNegativeBarFormat().getColor().setColor(Color.FromArgb(128,0,240));
dataBar.setShowValue(false);
