Rotating the X-Axis labels 45 degrees with XYLineChart

[the_schmitz]

Hello,
I'm trying to rotate the X-Axis data point labels on an XYLineChart, and I can't seem to figure it out. On a bar chart, it's pretty straight forward:

Code: Select all

CategoryAxis domainAxis = plot.getDomainAxis();
domainAxis.setCategoryLabelPositions(CategoryLabelPositions.UP_45);

But I can't seem to figure out how to do it with an XYLineChart, any help is appreciated.

Thanks
Chris

This is supported in the CategoryAxis class, but not the NumberAxis or DateAxis classes. It is inconsistent, so eventually it needs to be fixed...but it isn't straightforward because the tick labelling code in the NumberAxis and DateAxis classes is a lot more complex than it is in the CategoryAxis class.
