Setting Range for X,Y Axis-JfreeChart

Sam picture Sam · Aug 29, 2011 · Viewed 72.3k times · Source

Any suggestions over how to set Range for X-Axis and Y-Axis.

My "X-Axis" Range is from "0.00 to 1.00" with difference of "0.05". I mean 0.00 0.05 0.10 0.15.....0.90 0.95 1.00

My "Y-Axis" Range is from "0.0 to 1.0" with difference of "0.1". I mean 0.0 0.1 0.2 0.3 0.4.........0.9 1.0

I tried doing this Way, but it's not reflecting on the Graph; I don't know how to apply it to ChartFactory.createScatterPlot().

final NumberAxis domainAxis = new NumberAxis("X-Axis");
domainAxis.setRange(0.00,1.00);
domainAxis.setTickUnit(new NumberTickUnit(0.1));
final NumberAxis rangeAxis = new NumberAxis("Y-Axis");
rangeAxis.setRange(0.0,1.0);
rangeAxis.setTickUnit(new NumberTickUnit(0.05));

public  JPanel createDemoPanel() {
    XYDataset dataset1 = samplexydataset2();
    JFreeChart jfreechart = ChartFactory.createScatterPlot("Scatter Plot Demo",
        "X", "Y",dataset1, PlotOrientation.VERTICAL, true, true, false);
}

Any help regarding this would be great.

I'm guessing your new NumberAxis instances aren't being used by the plot; it may be easier to use the existing ones from the factory.
