User (Legacy) Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 Hi, Basically i am trying to create a PIE chart with a legend box. We have a specific requirement that the legend box should be displayed at the bottom of the chart and it should contain all the point lables. How can i accomplish this requirement? I tried to display the legend box using the following line of code.. chart1.getLegendBoxObj().setDocked(1); As soon as i include this line, the entire legend box disappears. Do we have any forum for the chartfx for java? Can you please point any additional documentation or forum that may be helpful for us? Here is the snippet, we used for the chart creation : ChartServer chart1 = new ChartServer( application, request, response ); // Set the chart data chart1.openData( COD.VALUES, 1, 5 ); chart1.setValue( 0, 0, 41 ); chart1.setValue( 0, 1, 44 ); chart1.setValue( 0, 2, 34 ); chart1.setValue( 0, 3, 24 ); chart1.setValue( 0, 4, 17 ); chart1.closeData( COD.VALUES ); // Formatting the chart chart1.setGallery( Gallery.PIE ); chart1.setLegend( 0, "Mid-cap Equities" ); chart1.setLegend( 1, "Large-cap Equities" ); chart1.setLegend( 2, "International Equities" ); chart1.setLegend( 3, "Fixed Income" ); chart1.setLegend( 4, "Cash" ); chart1.setLegendBox( true ); chart1.setUserLegendBox( true ); chart1.getLegendBoxObj().setToolBorder(0); chart1.getLegendBoxObj().setAlignment(1); chart1.getLegendBoxObj().setDrawingArea(true); //chart1.getLegendBoxObj().setDocked(1); //LegendBox.setDocked(3); chart1.setUserLegendBox( true ); chart1.setPointLabels( false); // The following line sets the HTTP content type header and streams // the chart directly to the ServletOutputStream. chart1.getHtmlData( width, height, "PNG" ); Thanks, Sivakumar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Software FX Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 Try chart1.getLegendBoxObj().setDocked(Docked.BOTTOM); It seems like setDocked is not understanding the "numbers" (1,2,etc), but it does work when you use the constants. We'll fix this in the next service pack.

User (Legacy) Posted January 30, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 Thanks for your valuable input. Currently the point lables are displayed inside the pie chart. Is there anyway that i can display the PointLables in the legend box instead of the chart? To Display the UserLegendBox: chart1.setUserLegendBox( true ); I have set the userLegendBox property to true. But still i am not seeing the userLegendBox in my chart in addition to the legend box. Document claims that if we set the above property true, the userLegendBox will be displayed. But it is not. Do i have to set all the elements to see the UserLegendBox?

Software FX Posted January 30, 2004 Report Share Posted January 30, 2004 The User Legend Box, is a legend box that contains information set by you (the user). If you haven't set any items to it, the legend box will be empty and therefore will not display. Which labels do you want to display in the legend box ? the labels that you are assigning through chart.setLegend() ? The first approach: chart1.getLegendBoxObj().setDocked(Docked.BOTTOM); Is correct and will display the legends assigned using the setLegend method (or coming from the database). If I am not understanding correctly, please attach a screenshot of what you see before and after moving the legend box. -- FP Software FX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
