GraphElement.setSizeFrame(frame)

Specifies the size of graphical elements. A SizeFrame can size-code chart elements by value, or simply specify a static size. The corresponding “getter” function is GraphElement.getSizeFrame().

Parameter

frame

A SizeFrame object

Example

Chart Component Script
dataset = [["State","Quantity","width"],["NJ",200,5],["NY",300,10],["PA",75,15]]; (1)
graph = new EGraph();
var elem = new IntervalElement("State", "Quantity"); (2)
var frame = new LinearSizeFrame(); (3)
frame.setField("width");
frame.setSmallest(10);
frame.setLargest(50);
frame.setMax(100);
elem.setSizeFrame(frame); (4)
graph.addElement(elem);  (5)
1 See dataset to use a data block instead of an array literal.
2 Create the IntervalElement object.
3 Create a SizeFrame object.
4 Use setSizeFrame to assign the SizeFrame to the IntervalElement.
5 Use addElement to add the IntervalElement to the Chart.

Script that modifies the graph or dataset properties should be placed on the Chart component itself. See Add Component Script for more information. This script has access to the Chart data and Chart API methods. Scripted Charts are not good candidates for user-modification, so you should deselect ‘Enable Ad Hoc Editing’ in the Chart Properties dialog box.

To change the property on a Chart that was previously created with the Chart Editor, use “getter” methods such as EGraph.getElement(index) ① to obtain a handle to the desired GraphElement object. For example:

var elem = graph.getElement(0); (1)
var frame = elem.getSizeFrame();
frame.setSmallest(10);
frame.setLargest(50);
frame.setMax(100);
