PieChart - Background of the ChartPanel

[Kerze]

Hey,
I am using the PieChart from the ChartFactory.createPieChart(). When I am looking at the PieChartDemo1.java, then the Background of the Chart is White and the Background of the ChartPanel is Grey, but when I use the same code in my own Programm the Colors are vice versa.
With plot.setBackgroundPaint(Color.white) I only get Access to the Background of the Chart, but I dont know how I get Access to the Background of the ChartPanel (The Background of the Title...).
Can anybody help me?

ChartPanel extends from JPanel which extends from JComponent. The method to use is:

Code: Select all

setBackground(java.awt.Color)

In conjunction with

Code: Select all

setOpaque(boolean isOpaque)

The JFreeChart class also has a setBackgroundPaint() method. This is the whole area in the chart panel (titles, legend, axes, data area, everything). The plot background doesn't include the titles or legend, just axes (if any) and the data area.
