Try to change the font of your category axis label and see if it helps. The attribute to change is "Category Axis Tick Label Font".

Thanx to ur reply i tried but it is not coming...can u give me another way to try?

[ramakrishnanr]

It depends on various factors. For example, the width of your chart and the number of labels in your category axis, 1 or 10. Also, i see a category axis label rotation as 100.  Change it to 0 to see if it works without label rotation.  you can also try to change the chart orientation and see if that helps.

Yes boss! i tried even this also by increasing width and removing label rotation value and all...but not...but how can we get this exactly[with out depend on your specified parameters]...?

vattembhaskar,

 

It looks like you have made one of the most common mistakes. It should be easy to fix. Your series is $F{month} and your category is $F{month} as well. This doesn't make sense.

 

Change the series to "MySeries" and leave the category as $F{month}.

 

Try the reverse as well. Set the series as $F{month} and the category as "MyCategory". It should help to understand what's going on.

 

Please let us know if that solves it.

 

Regards,
Matt
