      com.jidesoft.chart.render.DefaultLineRenderer

All Implemented Interfaces:

LineRenderer

public class DefaultLineRenderer
extends AbstractLineRenderer

A renderer for drawing lines on a chart. Consecutive points in the ChartModel are joined by straight line segments.

Field Summary

static String	PROPERTY_CHART
static String	PROPERTY_USE_DRAW_POLYLINE

Constructor Summary

DefaultLineRenderer(Chart chart)
Creates a DefaultLineRenderer using the supplied chart object as the chart object onto which lines should be drawn.

Method Summary

void	addPropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener) Adds a property change listener to this object
Chart	getChart() Returns the chart associated with this renderer
boolean	getUseDrawPolyline()
void	removePropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener) Remove the supplied property change listener from this object
void	renderLine(Graphics g, ChartModel m, int[] xPoints, int[] yPoints, ChartStyle style) Render lines using the supplied arrays of x and y pixel coordinates onto the supplied Graphics context.
void	setChart(Chart chart) Sets the chart onto which the lines should be drawn
void	setUseDrawPolyline(boolean newUseDrawPolyline) Specify whether to use drawPolyline() to paint multiple line segments.

Constructor Detail

DefaultLineRenderer

public DefaultLineRenderer(Chart chart)

Creates a DefaultLineRenderer using the supplied chart object as the chart object onto which lines should be drawn.

Parameters:

chart - the chart object

Method Detail

getChart

public Chart getChart()

Returns the chart associated with this renderer

Returns:

the chart object associated with this renderer

setChart

public void setChart(Chart chart)

Sets the chart onto which the lines should be drawn

Parameters:

chart - the Chart object

getUseDrawPolyline

public boolean getUseDrawPolyline()

Returns:

whether we are using drawPolyline for calls on the Graphics context to draw lines

setUseDrawPolyline

public void setUseDrawPolyline(boolean newUseDrawPolyline)

Specify whether to use drawPolyline() to paint multiple line segments. The choice of this parameter can affect performance, particularly for larger datasets.

addPropertyChangeListener

public void addPropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)

Adds a property change listener to this object

Parameters:

listener - a property change listener

removePropertyChangeListener

public void removePropertyChangeListener(PropertyChangeListener listener)

Remove the supplied property change listener from this object

Parameters:

listener - the property change listener to remove

renderLine

public void renderLine(Graphics g,
                       ChartModel m,
                       int[] xPoints,
                       int[] yPoints,
                       ChartStyle style)

Render lines using the supplied arrays of x and y pixel coordinates onto the supplied Graphics context.

Parameters:

g - the Graphics context

m - the ChartModel from which the points originated

xPoints - an array of x coordinates

yPoints - an array of y coordinates

style - the suggested style for rendering (a custom renderer may choose to ignore this)
