shifting bars or range label

markcheung

Is there a way to shift the bars in the histogram graph to make it look more like a histogram or change the x-axis's scales' labels?

The label that I am getting is a set of x-axis scales (in CDateTime format), so it is something like 07/ 28 05:00, 7/28 10:00, 7/28 15:00, 7/28 20:00. I have already gotten the frequencies for the time range, and I would like to make it look like a histogram rather than a bar graph. I can either set the scales' label to a set of ranges (07/ 28 00:00 - 07/ 28 05:00, 07/ 28 05:00 - 7/28 10:00, etc) or insert a beginning scale label with no value and shift all the bars to the left.

Again, attached is what my graph currently looks like.

Code snippet:

xAxis = chart.getPrimaryBaseAxes()[0];
xAxis.getLabel().getCaption().getFont().setRotation(45);
// xAxis.setLabelPosition(Position.RIGHT_LITERAL); //error
xAxis.setGapWidth(10); //??
xAxis.getTitle().getCaption().setValue("Time");
xAxis.getTitle().getCaption().setColor(ColorDefinitionImpl.CREAM());
xAxis.getTitle().setVisible(true);
String k=xAxis.getLabel().getCaption().getValue();
System.out.println("Value: "+k); -->print out "Value: " no k value?

Are you just wanting to remove the space between the bars?

You can do this by setting the unit spacing on the chart:
cwaBar.setUnitSpacing(1);
