Yahoo Finance Like Chart

[homecurr]

Hi

I want to generate the same chart as Yahoo Finance uses for stock quote. JFreeChart works pretty well. I have just one problem. The margin around the chart is to large and it takes too much of my web page space. How can I change it? The font of the title looks like bold, how can I make it plain?

here is my code:

Thanks,

John

private JFreeChart createTimesChart(String zip, String range) {
XYDataset dataset = createDataset();
JFreeChart chart = ChartFactory.createTimeSeriesChart(
zip,
"",
"",
dataset,
false,
false,
false
);
// chart.setBackgroundPaint(Color.white);
chart.setAntiAlias(true);
return chart;
}

These things will help a little:

Code: Select all

        TextTitle title = chart.getTitle();
        title.setSpacer(new Spacer(Spacer.ABSOLUTE, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.0));
        XYPlot plot = (XYPlot) chart.getPlot();
        plot.setInsets(new Insets(0, 0, 0, 0));
        
        ValueAxis domainAxis = plot.getDomainAxis();
        domainAxis.setLabelInsets(new Insets(0, 0, 0, 0));
        ValueAxis rangeAxis = plot.getRangeAxis();
        rangeAxis.setLabelInsets(new Insets(0, 0, 0, 0)); 

The font of the title looks like bold, how can I make it plain?

Get the title:

Set the font:
