createPieChart
public static JFreeChart createPieChart(String title,
PieDataset dataset,
PieDataset previousDataset,
int percentDiffForMaxScale,
boolean greenForIncrease,
boolean legend,
boolean tooltips,
boolean urls,
boolean subTitle,
boolean showDifference)
Creates a pie chart with default settings that compares 2 datasets.
The colour of each section will be determined by the move from the value
for the same key in
previousDataset
. ie if value1 > value2
then the section will be in green (unless
greenForIncrease
is
false
, in which case it would be
red
).
Each section can have a shade of red or green as the difference can be
tailored between 0% (black) and percentDiffForMaxScale% (bright
red/green).
For instance if
percentDiffForMaxScale
is 10 (10%), a
difference of 5% will have a half shade of red/green, a difference of
10% or more will have a maximum shade/brightness of red/green.
The chart object returned by this method uses a
PiePlot
instance
as the plot.
