As shown in the attached file, I want to reduce the interval between blue and green in the graph. How can I do that?

(The solution was to add in some non-displaying columns using a binding transform.) To get the columns to touch set PROPS.series.0.column.appearance.width = 100. Repeat for the columns 1, 2, etc.

I asked the wrong question.

I want to have the group values in "example 0" side by side and have an interval with "example 1.

What should I do because there is no solution to the gap between groups when I see it for reference?

I haven't done it myself, but in the same topic was suggested to create dummy data source to achieve gap between groups.

> Hi @shabir.ahmed, It’s a bit of a fudge, but I managed to achieve it by creating 2 dummy datasources where the value for ‘Cons’ was zero for all instances and then creating them as the first and last series: When doing this make sure the dummy series have their tooltips disabled and the column fill & stroke width & opacity set to zero. Also note that you can’t really control the gap between the groups frowning Let me know if you need further guidance.
