Placement of the graph components (bars, dots, or line points) depends to some degree on placement of the ticks. (It shouldn't, but it does in order to have things lined up within 1 pixel error). Pass the alignment setting of the ticks of the axis that has the data description "labels".

Parameters:

alignment - A value of either Area.BETWEEN or Area.CENTERED

setType

void setType(int type)

The type of the graph area. There exist two types of graph areas. One has the data descriptors on the bottom (i.e. vertical bar chart); the other has them on the left (i.e. horizontal bar chart).

Parameters:

type - The type of the graph area. [LABELSBOTTOM or LABELSLEFT]

setAllowComponentAlignment

void setAllowComponentAlignment(boolean allow)

Parameters:

allow - If true, then aligns the components.

setGraphValues

The heights/widths of the components. This is respective to the bottom of the graph area, but above the border/to the left of the graph area. This is an array of arrays of values. The first array contains data sets. The inner arrays contains the heights/widths for each set. Heights are used for when the type of graph area is LABELSBOTTOM. Otherwise, widths.

Parameters:

values - The offsets of the components from the data descriptor axis.

setBarLowValues

Determines where bars of bar charts begin. Generally bars begin at zero, but with stackable charts, bars sometimes need to start at the tops of other bars. Also, bars can be used to signify uncertainty (i.e. 3+-2) can be signified by a bar that starts at 1 and goes to 5.

Parameters:

values - The low values normalized the graph area (i.e. not the actual data set values).
