Fill colours in between trend lines

[Jyothy]

I have drawn 3 trend lines in my graph to specify the threshold values in the time series chart with 3 diffrent colours.

Now i would like to fill colours between these trend lines.
Can any one help me??

Here is the code to draw trend lines.
Date date = DateUtilities.createDate(2002,MonthConstants.JANUARY,1);
Date date1 = DateUtilities.createDate(2002,MonthConstants.NOVEMBER,31);

double x1 = (double)date.getTime();
double x2 = (double)date1.getTime();
double y1 = 95.35;
double y2 = 96.48;
double y3 = 97.50

XYLineAnnotation trendline = new XYLineAnnotation(x1,y1,x2,y1,DOTTED_LINE, Color.green);
XYLineAnnotation trendline1 = new XYLineAnnotation(x1,y2,x2,y2,DOTTED_LINE, Color.orange);
XYLineAnnotation trendline2 = new XYLineAnnotation(x1,y3,x2,y3,DOTTED_LINE, Color.red);

plot.addAnnotation(trendline);
plot.addAnnotation(trendline1);
plot.addAnnotation(trendline2);
plot.setRenderer(renderer1);

Thanks in advance,

I have used XYBoxAnnotation to get the band of colors , but the band is rendered on top of line graph so line graph is not being seen.

I want the band of colors underneath so that on these band of colors the time series graph shd be shown.


Please help!

Have you tried using an IntervalMarker instead? As well as marking a range/domain interval correctly, you can also specify whether the marker is rendered under / on top of the data.

IntervalMarker takes 2 doubles values x1 to y1, but i need to draw a band from x1 to y1 and x2 to y2.( it would be as a rectangle).

and also this band underneath a graph.



Thanks in advance

i have used tried MarkerBand class but not sucedded.

MarkerAxisBand mab = new MarkerAxisBand(rangeAxis1, x1, y1, x2, y2, new Font("Verdana", Font.PLAIN, 10));
IntervalMarker marker = new IntervalMarker(x1, y1);
marker.setPaint(Color.pink);
mab.addMarker(marker);
rangeAxis1.setMarkerBand(mab);

where
Date date = DateUtilities.createDate(2002,MonthConstants.JANUARY,1);
Date date1 = DateUtilities.createDate(2002,MonthConstants.NOVEMBER,31);

double x1 = (double)date.getTime();
double x2 = (double)date1.getTime();
double y1 = 95.35;
double y2 = 96.48;
double y3 = 97.50;


pls advice what is wrong in the code

Hallo,

I have used XYBoxAnnotation to get the band of colors , but the band is rendered on top of line graph so line graph is not being seen.

Did you ever succeed with this? The box annotation is a nice feature, but I need them in the background of the series.

Thx, Willi

The box annotation is a nice feature, but I need them in the background of the series.

Have you tried using:

Code: Select all

public void addAnnotation(XYAnnotation annotation, Layer layer)

with the layer set as "Layer.BACKGROUND"? The full description of this function is on http://www.jfree.org/jfreechart/api/gjd ... derer.html. The XYBoxAnnotation is an extension of XYAnnotation, so as long as you are using a renderer that extends from AbstractXYItemRenderer (which I suspect), you should be able to add the annotation to the background.

Hope this helps,

you can also give transparent color to boxAnnotation.
