first of: I am really having a problem with JFreechart and mainly I really believe that this is my fault because I start using the library without fully understanding how it fully function or use second of: these are some helpful resource that helped me :
check it out 1
check it out 2
check it out 3
my current state : my problem is in making use of the drawPrimaryLine() in my already build project so I am still having a problem in connecting the dots in my way, not in a sequence way
example: if I enter (10,10) and (15,15) and (20,20) and (25,25) in this sequence, this is what I will end up with (the left side without connecting, the right side with connecting)
My problem is: 1 - when drawing a line is showing on the right side, I don't want the line to be generated or created until all of the points are add and the button done has been clicked *show in the most bottom right side
2 - I don't want the showing line to be in a sequence way I want the line to be shown base on some algorithm and not all dots will have or a line will pass through it, only a line will pass in some case. so, in summary: not all dots will be connected only some based on an algorithm.
this is my code :
public class x_y_2 extends JFrame {
private static final String title = "Connecting The Dots";
private XYSeries added = new XYSeries("Added");
public List ls = new LinkedList<XYSeries>();
private XYLineAndShapeRenderer renderer = new XYLineAndShapeRenderer();
final XYSeriesCollection dataset = new XYSeriesCollection();
private XYPlot plot ;
public x_y_2(String s) {
super(s);
final ChartPanel chartPanel = createDemoPanel();
this.add(chartPanel, BorderLayout.CENTER);
JPanel control = new JPanel();
JLabel label = new JLabel("Enter 'x' value");
JTextField Field_x = new JTextField();
Field_x.setPreferredSize( new Dimension( 100, 24 ));
JLabel label2 = new JLabel("Enter 'y' value");
JTextField Field_y = new JTextField();
JLabel error = new JLabel("Importent*** in case no value is entered,value is set to '1' ");
error.setForeground(Color.RED);
Field_y.setPreferredSize( new Dimension( 100, 24 ));
control.add(label);
control.add(Field_x);
control.add(label2);
control.add(Field_y);
control.add(new JButton(new AbstractAction("Add") {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
if (Field_x.getText().isEmpty()) {
Field_x.setText("1"); ;
}
if (Field_y.getText().isEmpty()) {
Field_y.setText("1");
}
Double x = Double.parseDouble(Field_x.getText());
Double y = Double.parseDouble(Field_y.getText());
added.add(x,y);
ls.add(added);
Field_x.setText("");
Field_y.setText("");
}
}));
control.add(error);
control.add(new JButton(new AbstractAction("Done..") {
@Override
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e) {
label.setVisible(false);
label2.setVisible(false);
Field_x.setVisible(false);
Field_y.setVisible(false);
error.setVisible(false);
PrimaryLine pr = new PrimaryLine(3);
GraphingData graphingdata = new GraphingData(2,4,2,10);
// pr.drawPrimaryLine(state, g2, plot, dataset, pass, series, item, domainAxis, rangeAxis, dataArea);
System.out.println(ls.size());
for (int i = 0 ; i < ls.size() ; i++) {
XYSeries xy = (XYSeries)ls.get(i);
System.out.println(xy.getX(i) +" "+xy.getY(i));
}
}
}));
this.add(control, BorderLayout.SOUTH);
}
private XYDataset createSampleData() {
dataset.addSeries(added);
return dataset;
}
private ChartPanel createDemoPanel() {

}}
second class : public class GraphingData extends JPanel {
double x_st , y_st , x_ed, y_ed = 0;
public Graphics2D g2 ;
public GraphingData(double x_st,double y_st,double x_ed,double y_ed) {
this.x_st = x_st ;
this.y_st = y_st;
this.x_ed = x_ed;
this.y_ed = y_ed;
}
protected void paintComponent(Graphics g) {
super.paintComponent(g);
g2 = (Graphics2D)g;
g2.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);
g2.draw(new Line2D.Double(x_st,y_st,x_ed, y_ed));
}
}
Third Class :
public class PrimaryLine extends XYLineAndShapeRenderer {
private final int anchor;
public PrimaryLine(int acnchor) {
this.anchor = acnchor;
}
@Override
protected void drawPrimaryLine(XYItemRendererState state, Graphics2D g2,
XYPlot plot, XYDataset dataset, int pass, int series, int item,
ValueAxis domainAxis, ValueAxis rangeAxis, Rectangle2D dataArea) {
if (item == anchor) {
return;
}
}
public void chart() {
PrimaryLine r = new PrimaryLine(8);
XYPlot plot = new XYPlot(createSampleData(),new NumberAxis("X"), new
NumberAxis("Y"), r);
JFreeChart chart = new JFreeChart(plot);
}
private XYDataset createSampleData() {
XYSeriesCollection xySeriesCollection = new XYSeriesCollection();
XYSeries added = new XYSeries("added");
added.add(4,2);
added.add(2,1);
xySeriesCollection.addSeries(added);
return xySeriesCollection;
}
}
Any kinda of help I would be greatfull for .
