I also want to record the x-y values.

If you had a ChartMouseListener to the ChartPanel you can use the event:

public void chartMouseClicked(ChartMouseEvent e)

to get the x-y values for a clicked on item.

Code: Select all

XYItemEntity xyItem = (XYItemEntity)e.getEntity();
xyItem.getDataset().getX(xyItem.getSeriesIndex(), xyItem.getItem());
xyItem.getDataset().getY(xyItem.getSeriesIndex(), xyItem.getItem());

As far as changing the color, I'm not sure on that but would like to know if anyone else has figured it out.

Well, nearly 1 year after your reply, I have to tell you I don't see any problem.

I also stumbled on your answer today using a search engine, and I found it very useful.

cheers!
