Some help on upgrading to 0.9.11

[Jim D]

Hi All,

I'm currently upgrading from 0.9.8 to 0.9.11..

I've been reading the changes posted by David but I'm still having trouble finding alternate calls to the following methods


CategoryPlot.setValueLabelFont()

CategoryPlot.setValueLabelVisible()

CategoryPlot.setValueLabelFormatString()

BarRenderer.setDefaultOutlinePaint()


Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Jim

Does anybody have any suggestions for alternates of the above calls?

Maybe a link or example code somewhere...

Thanks

Jim

CategoryPlot.setValueLabelFont()
CategoryPlot.setValueLabelVisible()
CategoryPlot.setValueLabelFormatString()

These settings are now controlled by one of the renderers managed by the plot:

Code: Select all

CategoryItemRenderer renderer = myPlot.getRenderer();
renderer.setItemLabelFont(font);
renderer.setItemLabelsVisible(true);

The item label is no longer required to be a value, even though it often is a value, so there is no method to set the number format. Now it is generated in the same way as tooltips, via the org.jfree.chart.labels.CategoryItemLabelGenerator interface. So to change the format, you need to look at the class that implements the interface.

BarRenderer.setDefaultOutlinePaint()

There should be a setOutlinePaint(...) method in the renderer, that sets the outline paint for ALL series (set it to null if you want to use a different outline paint PER series). But it looks like it hasn't been added to the code...it will be there in 0.9.13. If you want to add it yourself right away, it needs to be in the AbstractRenderer class.

Dave,

Thank you very much..
