# Waterfall Series

This series becomes active when a waterfall series is selected for a measure in the Y-axis.

## Key Properties

A **waterfall series** refers to a type of chart used to display incremental changes to a starting value, visually breaking down the cumulative effect of sequential positive or negative data. The following properties can be set for a waterfall series

### Color and Opacity

* **Positive Color** - Positive changes are shown in this color.
* **Negative Color** - Negative changes are shown in this color.
* **Opacity** - Allows you to control the transparency of both the positive and the negative color.&#x20;

### Border Radius

Using the alignment property, the value can be left, right or centre aligned in the visual.&#x20;

### Column Width

This controls the column's width and is expressed as a percentage. The value can range from 0 to 100. Higher the value, thicker is the column width.

### 3D Chart

Add a three-dimensional effect to data, making it appear as though the chart has depth and perspective.
