Logarithmic Axis Labels/Ticks Customization

Question

I am using the JFreeChart API to generate some chart in my Java application. In one of my charts, I try to use the LogAxis object to make my y-axis

Answer 1

I think what you need is logAxis.setNumberFormatOverride(NumberFormat format);

EDIT: Since further help is needed... try this:

logAxis.setBase(10);
LogFormat format = new LogFormat(logAxis.getBase(), "", "", true);
logAxis.setNumberFormatOverride(format);

Here's a whole method that can be used to play with...:

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    XYSeries series = new XYSeries("");
    series.add(1, 10);
    series.add(2, 100);
    series.add(3, 1000);
    series.add(4, 10000);
    series.add(5, 100000);
    series.add(6, 1000000);

//    NumberAxis yAxis = new NumberAxis("");
    LogAxis yAxis = new LogAxis("");
    yAxis.setBase(10);
    LogFormat format = new LogFormat(yAxis.getBase(), "", "", true);
    yAxis.setNumberFormatOverride(format);
    XYPlot plot = new XYPlot(
      new XYSeriesCollection(series),
      new NumberAxis(""),
      yAxis,
      new XYLineAndShapeRenderer(true, false));
    JFreeChart chart = new JFreeChart("", JFreeChart.DEFAULT_TITLE_FONT, plot, false);

    JFrame frame = new JFrame("LogAxis Test");
    frame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    frame.setContentPane(new ChartPanel(chart));
    frame.pack();
    frame.setVisible(true);
  }
