RE : [Charts]: How to simplify the categories labels inthe X axis

Leray Eric


On the net I have found some examples of JFreeCharts charts that actually present the X axis labels in the way we aim to...

http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/samples.html 
(in here the Time Series Chart shows many examples where the labelling of the X axis is not linked with the values of the series).
and
http://www.java2s.com/Code/Java/Chart/Chart2DLineChartWithLargeDataSet.htm

I am not sure how they could be related to the Orbeon's configuration...

But the option is there in JFreeChart ... somewhere.

Eric.

Hi Eric,

The first thing to figure out would be whether JFreeChart supports this.
If so, then is there a special configuration for JFreeChart to get
there, and if not then it probably means that we need to upgrade the
chart processor ;-)

This looks similar to the "tick unit" that you can already use for the
value axis, but for the category axis. I don't think you can do this
right now with chart processor. Essentially we would need to make the
category axis a number or date axis. Once this is done you can specify
a tick unit for that axis.

I have added an RFE (linked below), and this would be a nice feature
up for sponsoring, or and of course if you'd like to implement it
yourself and can contribute back your changes, we would be glad to put
them in.
