    Hi,

    I've noticed that with 3.1, my MSArea charts are now 3D - is this intended behaviour or unintended? Is there a way to turn 3D off if it is intended?

    MSArea is by default 3D. There is no easy way to turn off 3D effect on diffferent layers for now. We could add it as option as the 3D does not add that much value either.

    MSArea is not that widely used chart as it suites usually only for situations where you are trying to visualize maximum values from multiple series.

    OK - so this has changed since the previous version (where msarea was 2D in 3.0 and before). I generally try and avoid 3D charts because of their increased complexity for those viewing it.

    We changed MSArea back to be a 2D-chart. A new chart option '3d' will allow to set 3D depth level if needed.

    Thank you again :-) All updated and working fine. I think making it an option is best since 'best practice' of charts is to avoid 3D unless it is essential.
