custom text & color for axis & data labels

[DavidThi808]

Hi;

Can someone point me to a url that shows the best way to tell JFreeChart how to format the text and set the color for the axis and data labels?

thanks - dave

The axis classes have setTickLabelFont() and setTickLabelPaint() methods. For the data labels, the renderers have setBaseItemLabelFont()/setSeriesItemLabelFont() and setBaseItemLabelPaint()/setSeriesItemLabelPaint() methods.

To render the text for a tick label (ie for a number I may want $1 234,56) - is the best way to call setTickUnit(new NumberTickUnit(double, new MyFormatter()))?
