Format a VerticalNumberAxis

[Fabien Boulesteix]

Hi,
I found a little bug in JFreeChart.
I had a problem with formatting a VertivalNumberAxis. I defined a DecimalFormatSymbols for a new pattern :
VerticalNumberAxis myVerticalAxis = (VerticalNumberAxis) myPlot.getAxis(Plot.VERTICAL_AXIS);
java.text.DecimalFormatSymbols dfs = new java.text.DecimalFormatSymbols();
dfs.setGroupingSeparator('.');
dfs.setDecimalSeparator(',');
myVerticalAxis.getTickLabelFormatter().setDecimalFormatSymbols(dfs);

But when I resize the graph, the format symbols change to the defaults.

In the refreshTicks of the VerticalNumberAxis, I have change the following line to keep the format symbols :

DecimalFormatSymbols decimalFormatSymbols = tickLabelFormatter.getDecimalFormatSymbols();
tickLabelFormatter = new DecimalFormat(tickLabelFormatter.toPattern());
tickLabelFormatter.setDecimalFormatSymbols(decimalFormatSymbols);

And it works.

Regards,
Fabien

Hi Fabien,

Thanks for your post. The work-around you suggest looks good. Actually it's a workaround on top of a workaround - take a look at these early postings in the JFreeChart discussion forum:
