Legend Overlap Issue

modonnell

I am using birt v2.2.2 and I am experiencing an issue with the legend overlapping. I found a bug already submitted for this issue. <a class='bbc_url' href='https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=211773'>https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=211773</a><br />
<br />
I also saw that it was fixed in v2.3. What I am wondering is if anyone knew the fix, if there was a patch for v2.2.2, or even a work around? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You may be able to play with the insets and the bounds a little:

Something like

function beforeDrawLegendItem(lerh, bounds, icsc)
{

importPackage( Packages.org.eclipse.birt.chart.model.attribute.impl );

if( bounds.getLeft() >50 ){
bounds.setLeft(bounds.getLeft() + 15);
lerh.getLabel().getInsets().setLeft( 15);
}else{
lerh.getLabel().getInsets().setLeft( 2 );
}



importPackage( Packages.java.io );
out = new PrintWriter( new FileWriter( "c:/test/chartevents.txt", true ) );
out.println( lerh.getLabel().getCaption().getValue() );
out.println( "BOUNDS = L" + bounds.getLeft() + " T " + bounds.getTop() + " W " + bounds.getWidth() + " H " + bounds.getHeight());
out.println( "Insets = R" + lerh.getLabel().getInsets().getRight() + " L " + lerh.getLabel().getInsets().getLeft() + " B " + lerh.getLabel().getInsets().getBottom() + " T " + lerh.getLabel().getInsets().getTop());
out.close();


}

The attached example modifies the bugzilla example.
