# Simple example of how to embed an externally created chart into a
# Spreadsheet:: WriteExcel worksheet.
#
#
# This example adds a line chart extracted from the file Chart1.xls as follows:
#
# perl chartex.pl -c=demo5 Chart5.xls

use strict;
use Spreadsheet::WriteExcel;
my $workbook = Spreadsheet::WriteExcel->new('demo5.xls');
my $worksheet = $workbook->add_worksheet();
# Embed a chart extracted using the chartex utility
$worksheet->embed_chart('D3', 'demo501.bin');
# Link the chart to the worksheet data using a dummy formula.
$worksheet->store_formula('=Sheet1!A1');
# Add some extra formats to cover formats used in the charts.
my $chart_font_1 = $workbook->add_format(font_only => 1);
my $chart_font_2 = $workbook->add_format(font_only => 1);
# Add all other formats (if any).
# Add data to range that the chart refers to.
my @nums = (0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 );
my @squares = (0, 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100);
$worksheet->write_col('A1', \@nums );
$worksheet->write_col('B1', \@squares);
