Hi All,

Does anyone know how to change the thickness of the line created using the API call "setCurveFitType"? I'm making very small bar graphs and the trend lines are just too thick and I'd like to resize them relative to the graph sizes.

Thanks,

Norb

Norb,

I think it is setLineWidth(getSeries ... blah blah) or something very similar.

Hi Tony,

I tried the "setLineWidth()" but the series appears to refer to the bars of the graph and not the trend line. I can't figure out how to get to the trend line itself. I'd like to color it also.

Thanks,

Norb

maybe you can combine the setLineWidth(getCurveFitType) to get what you want.

Do you have the proper documentation? WF713Graph.pdf

Hi Frank,

Yep - I tried experimenting with your suggestion and had no luck. I do have the API docs as well. They are certainly helpful. I'm gonna open a case and see what IB says.

Thanks,

Norb

Norb,

When you say "very small bar graphs", how small do you mean (I take it you are controlling them via HAXIS and VAXIS (see sample below)? Also what output format are you using.

GRAPH FILE CAR
SUM RCOST
BY CAR
ON GRAPH SET HAXIS 200
ON GRAPH SET VAXIS 150
ON GRAPH SET HTMLCSS ON
ON GRAPH SET PAGE NOLEAD
ON GRAPH SET GRAPHSTYLE *
setCurveFitType(getSeries(0), 3);
ENDSTYLE
END
-RUN


If you are creating the graph small as a gif then the line size if very much fixed. If you can create the gif a little larger and then reduce the size in your output format by controlling the display width and height. That way the image should resize accordingly - including the line width.

Tony,

I am indeed controlling the graph size using the HAXIS, VAXIS paramters and saving the output as GIF files. I'll try your suggestion and resize them within the HTML.

Thanks,

Norb

For a better quality graph I would use SVG format and show them in the HTML page. Resizing keeps the quality. As GIF it does not.
