[SOLVED] Set Group label style and font for Pie Graph

Hi All,

Does anyone know how to set the font size/style for the group labels used in a pie graph - type 57. I'm plotting data across month/year for 6 months so I have 6 cute little pie graphs with the label (02/2010, 03/2010 etc.) underneath them but I cannot figure out how to style the label. I tried to no avail:

setFontSizeAbsolute(getGroupLabel(0),true);
setFontSize(getGroupLabel(0),9);
setFontStyle(getGroupLabel(0),1);
setFontName(getGroupLabel(0),"Arial Black");

But I can change the group label itself with:
setGroupLabel(0, "Norb");

Any ideas or is this not possible.

Thanks,

Norb

There are many commands for graphing. Have you checked out the ThreedGraphics website. They supplied the graph engine. Also the WebFOCUS Graphics documentation.

You could try this command.
setAutofit(getGroupLabel(0),false);

Thanks Tom,

This has no impact on the group label underneath the pie graph although the legend is indeed impacted. I'm trying to affect the group label that is displayed directly underneath the pie graph.

Hi Waz,

"setAutoFit" was not liked at all:

Possible Error on: setAutoFit("05/2010",);

I'm stumped and am thinking I can't style the group label on a pie chart.

Thanks,

Norb

Hi Tom,

Been busy for a few days but finally found the correct method in the API docs.

getPieLabel() - returns the id of the pie group labels and then they can be style using the normal API methods.

Thanks,

Norb
