ShapeForm.setRotation(value)

Specifies the shape rotation in degrees. The corresponding “getter” function is getRotation().

Parameter

value

Number

Example

Chart Component Script
dataset = [["State","Quantity"], ["NJ",200], ["NY",300]]; (1)
graph = new EGraph();
var elem = new IntervalElement("State", "Quantity");
var shape1 = new ShapeForm(); (2)
var shape2 = new ShapeForm(); (2)
shape1.setPoint(new java.awt.geom.Point2D.Double(.6,.5));
shape1.setShape(GShape.FILLED_TRIANGLE);
shape1.setColor(java.awt.Color(0xff0000));
shape1.setSize(new java.awt.Dimension(20,20));
shape1.setRotation(45); (3)
shape2.setPoint(new java.awt.geom.Point2D.Double(.5,.5));
shape2.setShape(GShape.FILLED_TRIANGLE);
shape2.setColor(java.awt.Color(0x000000));
shape2.setSize(new java.awt.Dimension(20,20));
graph.addForm(shape1); (4)
graph.addForm(shape2); (4)
graph.addElement(elem);
1 See dataset to use a data block instead of an array literal.
2 Create the ShapeForm object.
3 Use setRotation() to set the rotation.
4 Use EGraph.addForm(form) to add the GraphForm 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, you do not need to add a Chart element. For example:

var shape1 = new ShapeForm();
var shape2 = new ShapeForm();
shape1.setPoint(new java.awt.geom.Point2D.Double(.6,.5));
shape1.setShape(GShape.FILLED_TRIANGLE);
shape1.setColor(java.awt.Color(0xff0000));
shape1.setSize(new java.awt.Dimension(20,20));
shape1.setRotation(45);
shape2.setPoint(new java.awt.geom.Point2D.Double(.5,.5));
shape2.setShape(GShape.FILLED_TRIANGLE);
shape2.setColor(java.awt.Color(0x000000));
shape2.setSize(new java.awt.Dimension(20,20));
graph.addForm(shape1);
graph.addForm(shape2);
