I'm trying to set data in an existing chart using python-pptx.
from pptx import Presentation
pres_path = "C:\\pres.pptx"
pres = Presentation(pres_path)
pres.slides[3].shapes[4].chart.series[0].values
(92.0, 330.0, 309.0, 313.0, 356.0, 421.0, 457.0)
pres.slides[3].shapes[4].chart.series[0].values = (1,2,3)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
AttributeError: can't set attribute
There's a method mentioned in the documentation which seems relevant, but I can't understand how to use it:
http://python-pptx.readthedocs.org/en/latest/_modules/pptx/chart/data.html
pres.slides[3].shapes[4].chart.replace_data((1,2,3))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "", line 1, in
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pptx\chart\chart.py", line 119, in replace_data
_SeriesRewriter.replace_series_data(self._chartSpace, chart_data)
File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\pptx\chart\chart.py", line 197, in replace_series_data
sers = cls._adjust_ser_count(chartSpace, len(chart_data.series))
AttributeError: 'tuple' object has no attribute 'series'
I'd appreciate any help you can provide.
Thanks!

To add a new series to an existing table behind a chart you need to do 3 things:
create an instance of ChartData()
provide category name
add the new series to the ChartData() object, using the "add_series()" func.
chart_data = ChartData()
chart_data.categories = 'category_name'
for col_idx, col in enumerate(single_df.columns):
chart_data.add_series(col, (single_df.ix[:, col_idx].values))
shp.chart.replace_data(chart_data)
