Position marker label to left of X-axis in bar chart

jlweb58

I've scripted the addition of a calculated marker line in a bar chart based on the average values of a series. As the attached screenshot shows, the label placement leaves something to be desired. I'd like to place the marker label to the left of the X-axis so it's more visible. Is there any way of scripting this?

Hi,
 
Simply set a negative left Inset value for the label. In the chart wizard UI, it is available in the Axis Markers dialog window (bottom right corner). In code, you use syntax like this:
 
markerLine.getLabel().getInsets().setLeft(-20.0);
 
where the value for setLeft is a negative Double.
 
Hope this helps,
 
P.

Thanks pricher, that worked like a charm. For some reason I thought I couldn't use negative insets.
