Issue with setLeftGap and setBottomGap on a line chart.

[appy_base]

It seems setLeftGap and setBottomGap does not work a line chart. setTopGap and setRightGap works.

This is how I set the gaps:

  chart1.setLeftGap( 1 );   chart1.setRightGap( 1 );   chart1.setTopGap( 1 );   chart1.setBottomGap( 1 );

But there is no effect on the area/gap between the graph image and X or Y axis. Right and Top gap changes according to the gap values. The reason I need to set the gap to a very low number like 1 is so as to accommodate a graph in a small area on the page.

 Any one running  into this scenario? Any suggestions?

 Thanks,

Appy

The gap properties are used to set the distance in pixels between the border of the bounding rectangle (chart control) and the plot area of the chart not between the plotted area and the axes.

I am attaching the image. What I would like it to have less distance between the axis and the image border. I am able to successfully do that for right and top gap but not for left or bottom gap.

 

Thanks,

could we see your code for this?

I found that I could stretch things out by hiding the axes and:

 

  trend.setBottomGap(-1);   trend.setLeftGap(-2);   trend.setTopGap(-1);   trend.setRightGap(-2);

 This was just a blind guess on my part and documented nowhere.

I hope this helps.
