InetSoft Product Information: Chart Code

AxisSpec.setAbbreviate(boolean)

Specifies that the common prefix of TimeScale labels should be omitted to conserve space. This property is only observed when a Date format is specified.

Parameter 
 Boolean
 true: drop common prefixes
 false: do not drop prefixes

AxisSpec.setAxisStyle(value)

Specifies the axis style.

Parameter 
 value
 AxisSpec.AXIS_SINGLE  (axes on left/bottom)
 AxisSpec.AXIS_SINGLE2 (axis on top/right)
 AxisSpec.AXIS_DOUBLE  (both axes, left/bot labels)
 AxisSpec.AXIS_DOUBLE2 (both axes, top/right labels)
 AxisSpec.AXIS_CROSS   (axis at zero-position)
 AxisSpec.AXIS_NONE    (axis not drawn)

 dataset = new DefaultDataSet(arr);
 graph = new EGraph();
 var elem = new IntervalElement("State", "Quantity");
 var qscale = new LinearScale("Quantity");
 var aspec = new AxisSpec();
 aspec.setAxisStyle(AxisSpec.AXIS_DOUBLE2);
 qscale.setAxisSpec(aspec);
 graph.setScale("Quantity", qscale);
 graph.addElement(elem);

AxisSpec.setGridAsShape(boolean)

Specifies whether axis grid lines are represented as shapes or positions. If represents as shapes, the grid lines can be transformed into curves under a coordinate transformation (for example, transformation of rectangular to polar coordinates). Otherwise, the grid lines remain straight, and only the endpoints are transformed.

Parameter 
 Boolean
 true if represented as shape
 false if represented as position

AxisSpec.setGridColor(value)

Specifies the color of the axis grid lines.

Parameter 
 value
 a java.awt.Color object

 form.setValues(['NY', 100]);
 var spec = new TextSpec();
 spec.setBackground(java.awt.Color(0xcccccc));
 form.setTextSpec(spec)
 graph.addForm(form);
 graph.addElement(elem);

AxisSpec.setGridOnTop(boolean)

Specifies whether axis grid lines are layered over or under the chart elements.

Parameter 
 Boolean
 true: grid overlays elements
 false: elements overlay grid
