| Scrollbars in programatically engineered bar charts [message #122690] |

Hello,
I am trying to use BIRT chart engine to render a bar chart in an Eclipse
view, and want to be able to set a minimum width on the chart, or on the
bars, so that if the data set exceeds the with of the chart a scrollbar
should appear in order for the user to see the remaining number of bars.
I can not find anything that lets me control the width of the chart or the
bars, or anything that enables a scrollbar.
Is this possible, and if so what would be the best way to go about it?

Hi Elin,
The more bars you have, the smaller they will be, so the overall size of the
chart will remain unchanged. There is no way to set any scrollbar in the
current chart engine.
For the width of the chart, you can set the bounds using Generator.build()
that takes a Bounds instance as parameter.
There are some examples in org.eclipse.birt.chart.examples plugin, you can
take a look there for examples on how to use the Chart API.
Thanks,
David
