vertical labels for X-axis in charts

[petrm]

Hi,

is there a way how to make vertical labels on the X-axis of a bar chart? I found a solution for JChart:
http://jcharts.sourceforge.net/usersGuide/0.7/axisCharts.html#verticalXAxisLabels
but I don't know how to use it with JR (if it's possible).

  Thanks,

 You can use a chart customizer like that, and set the properties that not is possible to set in iReport

 

 

Code:

package br.anc.reports.chart;import org.jfree.chart.JFreeChart;import org.jfree.chart.axis.NumberAxis;import org.jfree.chart.plot.CategoryPlot;import net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRChart;import net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRChartCustomizer;public class MyCustomChart implements JRChartCustomizer{		public void customize(JFreeChart chart, JRChart jasperChart){		CategoryPlot plot = (CategoryPlot)chart.getPlot();		                // Set the x-axis range (0 to 5, only integers)		NumberAxis rangeAxis = (NumberAxis) plot.getRangeAxis();		rangeAxis.setRange(0, 5);		rangeAxis.setStandardTickUnits(NumberAxis.createIntegerTickUnits());	   		//Set Item label (Font/size)		CategoryItemRenderer categoryRenderer = plot.getRenderer();		categoryRenderer.setBaseItemLabelFont(new Font("Arial", Font.PLAIN, 5));    		//BarRenderer barRenderer = (BarRenderer) plot.getRenderer();		//barRenderer.setDrawBarOutline(false);		//barRenderer.setItemMargin(.1);				}	}

You could use the labelRotation attribute of the <plot /> element, or the labelRotation attribute of the <categoryAxisFormat /> element.

Hope this helps,
