Gap in the chart [message #209505] Fri, 05 January 2007 14:41 Go to next message
Eclipse UserFriend
Hi,

I am trying to create a chart. When the datavalue is too high, then there is
gap between the X-Axis and Y-Axis. Any reason why that is happening and how
to fix it?

Please see the attached image.

Thanks
Bidyut

It looks like you have set the origin of your X Axis to 0 on the Y axis.
Just clear the value and it should automatically adjust.

Thanks,

David

Thanks. But I have not set it to zero. Instead I have the following code:

xAxisPrimary.getOrigin().setType(IntersectionType.VALUE_LITE RAL);
yAxisPrimary.getOrigin().setType(IntersectionType.MIN_LITERA L);

This generates that funky chart.

But if I comment out both lines, then the chart is somewhat fine. See the
first attached image.
However, if there is negative value, then the char is weird too. See the
second attached image.

Also why there is a gap between X-axis and Y-Axis intersection. Why don't
they touch each other? So are the bars, they never touch the X-axis line.

Thanks
Bidyut

Yes, the first line means you set the origin by value, but you didn't set
its value, so it likely defaults it to zero.

As for the second chart, you could have your X axis on the Y zero, if you
restore this first line.

Then for the first chart it becomes a scale issue, where do you want your
y axis to start with? the automatic scaling takes the minimum value of the
data, you can set the scale min to zero if you want your bars to start at
zero.

And if you would like your bars to touch the axis, you have to remove the
spacing of the plot. (plot.sethorizontalspacing/verticalspacing to zero)

Hope this helps,

David

David,

Thanks for the detail information. That makes it more clear now.
