Orientation
js
{
orientation: 'vertical', // default
// orientation: 'horizontal',
}Orientation controls which physical sides carry the domain (categories) vs range (values) axes. Chartbuddy remaps axis roles automatically when orientation changes, so you keep the same seriesData and only flip orientation.
| Orientation | Domain (categories) | Primary range (values) |
|---|---|---|
vertical | bottom | left |
horizontal | left | bottom |
Horizontal clustered bar
js
{
chartType: 'clusteredBar',
orientation: 'horizontal',
isDataTransposed: true,
seriesData: [/* … */],
title: { visible: true, text: 'Sources' },
subtitle: { visible: false, text: '' },
legend: { visible: false },
}Give horizontal bars enough height: category labels sit on the left and need vertical room. Format value ticks on axes.bottom (primary range), not left.
