InternalFrame chart

[William Hidden]

Hi Dave,

I would like say great charting framework. In my application I had need for a
JFreeChartInternalFrame. Here is my quick solution by changing the inheritance from JFrame to JInternalFrame. I have not done extensive testing to catch any of the idiosyncrasies between a JFrame and a JInternalFrame so user beware.

Hi William,

Thanks! I don't use JInternalFrame myself, but I'll include your class in the next release of JFreeChart for those that do...

Regards,

DG.

William,

Can you please show one example where you are using JFreeChartInternalFrame ?

I've been trying to build a MDI application using JInternalFrame but unsuccessful so far.

Thanks
