Do you mean a BarChart or a ColumnChart, and do you want horizontal lines or vertical lines?

The only horizontal lines you can get on BarCharts are gridlines, which you will get if your domain axis is a continuous axis type (uses type 'number', 'date', 'datetime', or 'timeofday').  You can't get them with discrete axes (type 'string').

With gridlines, you can control how many there are, but you cannot choose where they are placed.

Hi,

I am trying to get something similar to work and although I've found a way to do it, I don't like my approach...

Here's what I'm trying to achieve:

On a horizontal bar chart (bars parallel to horizontal axis), I'd like a fixed vertical line drawn on the chart at a set value (100). My haxis is continuous (number).

The only way I've found to get this is through a combo chart by adding a serie with values x = 100 for every y.

There's got to be a better way of doing this with gridlines or axes, no?

Thanks.

There's no way to add a vertical line to the BarCharts other than the gridlines.  You can't add horizontal bars to the ComboCharts either.  If you use ComboCharts, you can combine columns with a line series to achieve the effect you want with vertical bars and a horizontal line, but it sounds like that's the solution you already found.

Too bad... I don't like adding dummy series just for display purposes...

Thanks for the quick answer and cheers!
