I found my yAxis label too big to be shown--it was truncated by the left border.
I tried increasing the left margin, with no success. It seems that the label text is left-aligned. So increasing the margin only gets the label further away from the ticks text.
Please see the attached screenshots. The one with wider gap is margin.left=70. The other one is with margin.left=40. No matter which case, the 'Expenditures' seems to be truncated on the left side.
Is there anywhere in the dc.css that I can change this configuration?
Thank you!!
You can adjust where the axis labels are placed relative to the edge by using the second parameter when you call the .xAxisLabel() and .yAxisLabel() methods. This sets the "padding" (actually the offset from the left/bottom).

It's confusing that the text size gets set through the stylesheet but the positioning can't be. I'm not sure if there's any way around this, though

Is there a way to provide line width in bokeh in data space, or alternatively can the line width be fixed in a way that zooming does not alter it?
I am trying to draw lines right next to one another without clashes or gaps between them.
Currently, I am using a mapping from line width to coordinate width and change the line widths and line coords in sync to achieve this, but as soon as I zoom the line width is adapted.

No, but feature requests are welcome!

Line width is set in screen units - zooming does not alter it by default.
It seems like the problem is that you change your line width in response to the range changes, and zooming does change ranges.
I have a GridPane displaying descriptive Labels on the left side and content Labels on the right side. I set everything to USE_COMPUTED_SIZE in SceneBuilder and added padding to my elements so they don't stick together too closely. This works well if it wasn't for the fact, that the left-side Labels are cut off, if the content is big enough to take up the whole width of the scene:
Is there a way of making sure that my left-side labels are displayed in full, before the right side labels get their share of available width? Setting the minimum width of the first column to a concrete value works, but i would like JavaFX to determine the needed size for the first column.
Use Texts (can be found in Shapes) instead of Labels in the first column. In contrast to Labels Texts are not resizeable and GridPane cannot resize the first column to become smaller than the largest of the Text nodes in this column.
I have a mx.charts.LineChart in Flex and I would like to know how to reduce the padding between the value labels and the tick markers? I've highlighted the region I mean with yellow boxes in the image below.
I'd like the labels to be as close as possible to the tick markers, just a couple of pixels will do.
I only care about applying this to the x-axis.
I'd also be interested to know how to reduce the padding between the axis title (e.g. kB and minutes on chart below) and the value labels.
Use the labelGap style of the AxisRenderer class.
By default it is 3 pixels, you can set it to 0 (or even a negative value if still not close enough).
For positioning the axis title there is no easy solution. You could write the vertical axis title yourself, as a label on top left of the chart. An advantage is that it is much better for the user to read (than the vertical writing).
In my watch glance I have selected the following layout in IB:
For some unknown reason the two top labels want to overlap...sometimes. Like this:
My understanding is that it shouldn't be possible to overlap labels using watchkit. Any idea of how to solve this problem?
I have often found that when labels are not in a Group container, the layout can be unpredictable. I would recommend placing the two top labels in a Group and then make the first Vertical Position Top and the second Vertical Position Bottom. Also be sure to set both labels to use "size to fit content."
Is there some way to position the legend using ZedGraph so that it is on the right-hand side, but vertically centred. Using:
output.Legend.Position = ZedGraph.LegendPos.Right
positions the legend at the top right, but beside a pie chart this looks misaligned. Is there a way to get the legend to vertically centre?
Changing output.Legend.Location.Y seems to have no effect, nor does trying output.Legend.Location.AlignV = ZedGraph.AlignV.Center
Added in response to first answer below...
Floating, reducing the chart size and positioning the label does centre vertically, and is better than I had managed previously. Unfortunately it has a side-effect, in that the legend switches to multi-column and tries to occupy half the width of the total chart area, thus usually overlapping the chart (see picture). Looking at the ZedGraph source, this wider mode is used for all layouts except Left and Right.
Location is only enabled when Legend.Position is set to Float.
You could do like this (C#):
output.Legend.Position = LegendPos.Float;
output.Legend.Location =
new Location(1.05f, 0.5f, CoordType.ChartFraction, AlignH.Right, AlignV.Center);
with the probably undesired "feature" that the legend is drawn partially inside the chart:
To workaround this issue I believe you also have to manually resize your chart:
output.Chart.Rect = new RectangleF(xstart, ystart, xsize, ysize);
Anders' answer nearly worked, except it had the side-effect of changing the width of the legend. This led me to download the source code to find out why, and I discovered that the legend positioning code is actually quite trivial. LegendPos.Right is only referenced twice in the code, both times in Legend.CalcRect
Adding a new LegendPos.MiddleRight only needs it added to the enum, a case for MiddleRight added to the first Switch which runs the same code as Right. And in the second Switch in CalcRect the following:
case LegendPos.MiddleRight:
newRect.X = clientRect.Right - totLegWidth;
newRect.Y = tChartRect.Top + tChartRect.Height / 2 - totLegHeight / 2;
tChartRect.Width -= totLegWidth + gapPix;
break;
This is the same code as for LegendPos.Right except for the newRect.Y line.
