public class Graph
extends java.util.ArrayList<Plot>

Graph objects are parts of a multi-plot drawing. Each graph contains other plots which share the same axis. All gnuplot objects have at least one graph object.

For single plots, better have a look at Plot objects and GNUPlot.addPlot() command

Method Detail

getAxis

public Axis getAxis(java.lang.String axisname)

Get one of the available Axis, in orde to set some parameters on it.

Parameters:

axisname - The name of the Axis. It is usually "x", "y", "z"

Returns:

The desired Axis

addPlot

public void addPlot(Plot plot)

Add a new plot to this plotgroup. At least one plot is needed to produce visual results.

Parameters:

plot - The given plot.

setMetrics

public void setMetrics(float x,
                       float y,
                       float width,
                       float height)

Set the position and size of thie graph object, relative to a 0,0-1,1 page

Parameters:

x - horizontal position

y - vertical position

width - width of this graph

height - of this graph

getMetrics

public LayoutMetrics getMetrics()

Get the positioning and size of this graph object

Returns:

The metrics of this object

getPlotCommand

protected java.lang.String getPlotCommand()

Get the actual gnuplot command to initiate the plot.

Returns:

This method always returns "plot"
