#12 Showing Data Values In Graph Charts

[Ich Selbst]

Hi,
Would it be possible to show the absolute values for
each row in a LLChart2D. (for example printint it
direct in the bar or like the Pie Labels in a PieChart)

I haven't come up with a way to have labels while
guaranteeing that they don't overlap. I don't like
overlapping objects. So until, I can figure out a design,
I won't be including them.

and what about printing it direct in the bar ?
(only if there is enough space)

That is the best solution that I've heard thus far...
But it will get hairy with stacked bar charts or charts with
many bars.

I don't understand the need for it really.
If you want to know better the values, try increasing the
number of number axis labels. Also, make sure that there
are lines from the number axis bullets. For the LLChart2D
this would be..
GraphProperties.setGraphVerticalLinesExistence (true) and
GraphChart2DProperties.setNumbersAxisNumLabels (int).

If your values are not both negative and positive, but one
or the other, and if the values are clumped closely together
try setting custom greatest and least values so that the
numbers axis labes don't range from 0 to whatever but from
values more specific to your dataset.
