Sets the style of the vertical lines of this graph. These lines are aligned with the axis's ticks. For each chart this graph is added to, this property will only be respected if its the first graph added that the chart; otherwise, graphs added after any chart would paint over the previous graph's components. Possible values for style are: CONTINUOUS, DASHED, and DOTTED.

Parameters:

style - The style of the vertical lines.

setGraphLabelsLinesColor

public final void setGraphLabelsLinesColor(java.awt.Color color)

Sets the color of the vertical lines of this graph. These lines are aligned with the axis's ticks. For each chart this graph is added to, this property will only be respected if its the first graph added that the chart; otherwise, graphs added after any chart would paint over the previous graph's components.

Parameters:

color - The color of the vertical lines.

setGraphLinesThicknessAssociation

public final void setGraphLinesThicknessAssociation(boolean association)

Sets whether the horizontal and vertical lines (if they both exist) should both be the same thickness at all times. Uses the smaller thickness if they are not already equal.

Parameters:

association - If true, then these lines will have equal thickness.

setGraphComponentsLightSource

public final void setGraphComponentsLightSource(int s)

Sets the direction of the source of the light if any. Possible values are: TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT, TOPLEFT, BOTTOMRIGHT, and NONE.

Parameters:

s - The direction of the light source.

setGraphComponentsLightType

public final void setGraphComponentsLightType(int t)

Sets the type of the lighting affect. Possible values are: COMPONENT and GRAPH. COMPONENT implies that the light source is positioned directly on the components (for example leaving a complete shading affect for each component).

Parameters:

t - The lighting affect type.

setGraphBarsRoundingRatio

public final void setGraphBarsRoundingRatio(float r)

Sets the degree of rounding for the bars. Uses the RoundRectangle in its implemenation. See the arcw and arch properties for guidance of RoundRectangle. The ratio is the diameter of the half-ellipse making the arc over the dimension in one direction of a bar. For the "Labels" ratio, the direction is the same direction in which the labels axis runs. Possible values are between zero and 1. Zero means less round, one means more round.

Parameters:

r - The rounding ratio.

setGraphComponentsOverflowClip

public final void setGraphComponentsOverflowClip(boolean c)

Sets whether the graph's components will be clipped if they pass over the graph's inner space or border. The only time the graph's components should not be clipped is if the graph's inner space and border are set to not exist. Not clipping may cause components to be painted over other chart components such as the legend or axis.

Parameters:

c - If true, then the components will be clipped.

setGraphComponentsAlphaComposite

a - The AlphaComposite object to use.
