 * Dear Meitai, and friends,
 * I have tried reading [google combochart](https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/combochart)
   in order to make a ComboChart by using this great plugin.
 * However according to the OtherNote – complete list of attributes for configurable
   chart options, it seems there is no seriesType on list. Please would you advise
   how to make change to the **seriesType**, say Column in **primary axis**, and
   Line in **secondary axis**?
 * Thanks very much in advance for your great help, as I have been trying for a 
   week and keep trying. Many thanks

 * For a `Combo` chart, you have to use the `chart_series` attribute to specify 
   each series individually. The `seriesType` attribute is just a shortcut for specifying
   a default, but this plugin needs to be told about each series explicitly. See
   [the documentation for the `series` configuration option](https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/combochart#configuration-options)
   for details about it.

 * I am very thankful for your typical very, very fast response 🙂
 * I’ve gone thru doc. of configuration option, and found the the default chart 
   type is ,line’ chart for a combo chart. And learnt from you that each series 
   has to be specify individually.
 * (and apologize that I am not good at coding)
    Isn’t this chart_series call for
   an object value (that should be a JSON according to your FAQ page), have tried
   below combinations but not successful on getting a Combo (bar) chart
 * 1.)
    chart_series='{“type”:”bars”,”type”:”bars”}’
 * 2.)
    chart_series='{“type”:’bars’,”type”:’bars’}’
 * 3)
    chart_series='{0:”type”:”bars”,1:”type”:”bars”}’
 * thanks

 * Dear Meitar,
 * Thanks for your help, finally I figured out how to amend the series chart type
   of a comboChart, the short code should be:
 * chart_series='{“0”:{“type”:”bars”},”1″:{“type”:”line”},”2″:{“type”:”bars”}}’
 * i.e. the 0, 1, 2, and so on should also include the ” sign.
 * I hope about short code could help those without programming skill like me.
