import { 
  Chart3DComponent, 
  Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective, 
  Chart3DSeriesDirective,
  Inject,
  Category3D,
  ColumnSeries3D,
  Legend3D,

    { month: 'Feb', sales: 28 },
    { month: 'Mar', sales: 34 },
    { month: 'Apr', sales: 32 },
    { month: 'May', sales: 40 }
  ];

  return (
    <Chart3DComponent
      id='chart'
      title='Monthly Sales'
      primaryXAxis={{ valueType: 'Category' }}
      primaryYAxis={{ title: 'Sales (K)' }}
      enableRotation={true}
      rotation={7}
      tilt={10}
      depth={100}
    >
      <Inject services={[ColumnSeries3D, Category3D, Legend3D, DataLabel3D, Tooltip3D]} />
      <Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
        <Chart3DSeriesDirective
          dataSource={data}
          xName='month'
          yName='sales'
          type='Column'
          name='Sales'

ReactDOM.render(<SalesChart />, document.getElementById('charts'));

Common Patterns

Basic Column Chart

<Chart3DComponent primaryXAxis={{ valueType: 'Category' }}>
  <Inject services={[ColumnSeries3D, Category3D]} />
  <Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data}
      xName='category'
      yName='value'
      type='Column'
    />
  </Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
</Chart3DComponent>

Stacked Column Chart

<Chart3DComponent primaryXAxis={{ valueType: 'Category' }}>
  <Inject services={[StackingColumnSeries3D, Category3D]} />
  <Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data1}
      xName='x'
      yName='y'
      type='StackingColumn'
      name='Product A'
    />
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data2}
      xName='x'
      yName='y'
      type='StackingColumn'
      name='Product B'
    />
  </Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
</Chart3DComponent>

Bar Chart (Horizontal)

<Chart3DComponent primaryXAxis={{ valueType: 'Category' }}>
  <Inject services={[BarSeries3D, Category3D]} />
  <Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data}
      xName='category'
      yName='value'
      type='Bar'
    />
  </Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
</Chart3DComponent>

With Data Labels and Legend

<Chart3DComponent
  primaryXAxis={{ valueType: 'Category' }}
  legendSettings={{ visible: true }}
>
  <Inject services={[ColumnSeries3D, Category3D, Legend3D, DataLabel3D]} />
  <Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data}
      xName='x'
      yName='y'
      type='Column'
      name='Sales'
      dataLabel={{ visible: true }}
    />
  </Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
</Chart3DComponent>

Custom 3D Rotation

<Chart3DComponent
  primaryXAxis={{ valueType: 'Category' }}
  enableRotation={true}
  rotation={15}
  tilt={5}
  depth={120}
  wallColor='transparent'
  wallSize={1}
>
  <Inject services={[ColumnSeries3D, Category3D]} />
  <Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data}
      xName='x'
      yName='y'
      type='Column'
    />
  </Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
</Chart3DComponent>

Multiple Series with Different Colors

<Chart3DComponent
  primaryXAxis={{ valueType: 'Category' }}
  palettes={['#E94649', '#F6B53F', '#6FAAB0']}
>
  <Inject services={[ColumnSeries3D, Category3D, Legend3D]} />
  <Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data1}
      xName='x'
      yName='y'
      type='Column'
      name='Product A'
    />
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data2}
      xName='x'
      yName='y'
      type='Column'
      name='Product B'
    />
    <Chart3DSeriesDirective
      dataSource={data3}
      xName='x'
      yName='y'
      type='Column'
      name='Product C'
    />
  </Chart3DSeriesCollectionDirective>

TypeScript Support

All components are fully typed. Import types as needed:

import { 
  Chart3DComponent,
  IChart3DLoadedEventArgs,
  IChart3DPointRenderEventArgs,
  Chart3DModel
} from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';

Troubleshooting Quick Reference

Chart not rendering?

• Verify @syncfusion/ej2-react-charts is installed
• Check CSS theme imports
• Ensure required services are injected

Data not showing?

• Verify xName/yName match data property names
• Check axis valueType matches data type
• Validate data source structure

Performance issues?

• Reduce data point count (aggregate if needed)
• Disable animations
• Optimize data structure

3D effect not working?

• Set enableRotation={true}
• Configure rotation, tilt, and depth props
• Check if series type supports 3D
