Category labels

[Marta]

Hi:

I have a VerticalBarChart with vertical category labels ,the problem is that those labes are too long .

Is there a way to make each label be drawn in two lines?

I have a fix space for the graph so when the labels are too long ,I have a very little space left for the chart.

Thank you in advance.

There's no code to do that in the current version. Code contributions are welcome though. If you decide to modify the HorizontalCategoryAxis, there are four methods that you will need to modify:

public void draw(...);
To modify the way the category labels are drawn.

public Rectangle2D reserveAxisArea(...);
The height will depend on how the category labels are laid out;

public double reserveHeight(...);
Again the height will depend on how the category labels are laid out;

public void refreshTicks(...);
There is some layout being done in this method;

Regards,
