Use of Thermometer Plot / MeterDataSet

[Mohar Bhise]

Hi

I would like to know how to use the Thermometer Plot along with the MeterDataSet.

All other charts in JFreeChart have an explicit method to create a chart in ChartFactory and have Plots related to that chart (eg XYDataSet with XYPlot, PieDataSet with PiePlot).

But I found that the MeterDataSet is not used by any of the methods in ChartFactory that create charts.

Also a ThermometerPlot needs a MeterDataSet to initialize it.

Does this mean that I can directly create a Thermomter Plot initalized appropriately with the MeterDataSet to create a Thermometer like chart?

You need to create the chart directly as I haven't added a method to the ChartFactory class yet. There is an example in ThermometerDemo2 in the com.jrefinery.chart.demo package.
