Constructor Details

CombinedPlot

public CombinedPlot()

Creates a empty CombinedPlot. The CombinedPlot is a container for CombinablePlot and CombinableContinuousPlot. This allows to display more than one chart in same plot. Sets the default combine type with all charts in one plot and with common category axis.

Since:

8.0

See Also:

• setCombineType(int)

CombinedPlot

public CombinedPlot(int combineType)

Creates a empty CombinedPlot. The CombinedPlot is a container for CombinablePlot and CombinableContinuousPlot. This allows to display more than one chart in same plot.

Parameters:

combineType - the type of combining

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - by unknown combine type

Since:

8.0

Method Details

addPlot

public void addPlot(AbstractPlot plot)

The list of plots contains either only one unspecified plot or more combinable plots. Appends the current plot to the end of this list. Note: you can combine only 2D plot as BarPlot, LinePlot, AreaPlot or ContinuousAreaPlot, ContinuousBarPlot, ContinuousLinePlot.

Parameters:

plot - the plot to be appended to this list

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this plot is not combinable or by unsupported combination of plots.

Since:

8.0

Parameters:

index - the index of the plot to removed

Returns:

the plot that was removed from the list.

Throws:

IndexOutOfBoundsException - if index out of range (index < 0 || index >= size()).
