Method Details

• getAlign

  public HorizontalAlign getAlign()

  See Also:

  • setAlign(HorizontalAlign)

• setAlign

  public void setAlign(HorizontalAlign align)

  What part of the string the given position is anchored to. Can be one of "left", "center" or "right". The exact position also depends on the labels.x setting. Angular gauges and solid gauges defaults to center.

  Defaults to: right

• getAutoRotation

  public Number[] getAutoRotation()

  See Also:

  • setAutoRotation(Number[])

• setAutoRotation

  public void setAutoRotation(Number[] autoRotation)

  For horizontal axes, the allowed degrees of label rotation to prevent overlapping labels. If there is enough space, labels are not rotated. As the chart gets narrower, it will start rotating the labels -45 degrees, then remove every second label and try again with rotations 0 and -45 etc. Set it to false to disable rotation, which will cause the labels to word-wrap if possible.

  Defaults to: [-45]

• getAutoRotationLimit

  public Number getAutoRotationLimit()

  See Also:

  • setAutoRotationLimit(Number)

• setAutoRotationLimit

  public void setAutoRotationLimit(Number autoRotationLimit)

  When each category width is more than this many pixels, we don't apply auto rotation. Instead, we lay out the axis label with word wrap. A lower limit makes sense when the label contains multiple short words that don't extend the available horizontal space for each label.

  Defaults to: 80

• getDistance

  public Number getDistance()

  See Also:

  • setDistance(Number)

• setDistance

  public void setDistance(Number distance)

  Angular gauges and solid gauges only. The label's pixel distance from the perimeter of the plot area.

  Defaults to: -25

• getEnabled

  public Boolean getEnabled()

  See Also:

  • setEnabled(Boolean)

• setEnabled

  public void setEnabled(Boolean enabled)

  Enable or disable the axis labels.

  Defaults to: true

• getFormat

  public String getFormat()

  See Also:

  • setFormat(String)

• setFormat

  public void setFormat(String format)

  A format string for the axis label.

  Defaults to: {value}

• getFormatter

  public String getFormatter()

• setFormatter

  public void setFormatter(String _fn_formatter)

• getPadding

  public Number getPadding()

  See Also:

  • setPadding(Number)

• setPadding

  public void setPadding(Number padding)

  The pixel padding for axis labels, to ensure white space between them.

  Defaults to: 5

• getReserveSpace

  public Boolean getReserveSpace()

  See Also:

  • setReserveSpace(Boolean)

• setReserveSpace

  public void setReserveSpace(Boolean reserveSpace)

  Whether to reserve space for the labels. This can be turned off when for example the labels are rendered inside the plot area instead of outside.

  Defaults to: true

• getStaggerLines

  public Number getStaggerLines()

  See Also:

  • setStaggerLines(Number)

• setStaggerLines

  public void setStaggerLines(Number staggerLines)

  Horizontal axes only. The number of lines to spread the labels over to make room or tighter labels.

• getStep

  public Number getStep()

  See Also:

  • setStep(Number)

• setStep

  public void setStep(Number step)

  To show only every n'th label on the axis, set the step to n. Setting the step to 2 shows every other label.

  By default, the step is calculated automatically to avoid overlap. To prevent this, set it to 1. This usually only happens on a category axis, and is often a sign that you have chosen the wrong axis type. Read more at Axis docs => What axis should I use?

• getStyle

  public Style getStyle()

  See Also:

  • setStyle(Style)

• setStyle

  public void setStyle(Style style)

  CSS styles for the label. Use whiteSpace: 'nowrap' to prevent wrapping of category labels. Use textOverflow: 'none' to prevent ellipsis (dots).

  In styled mode, the labels are styled with the .highcharts-axis-labels class.

  Defaults to: { "color": "#666666", "cursor": "default", "fontSize": "11px" }

• getUseHTML

  public Boolean getUseHTML()

  See Also:

  • setUseHTML(Boolean)

• setUseHTML

  public void setUseHTML(Boolean useHTML)

  Whether to use HTML to render the labels.

  Defaults to: false

• getX

  public Number getX()

  See Also:

  • setX(Number)

• setX

  public void setX(Number x)

  The x position offset of the label relative to the tick position on the axis. Defaults to -15 for left axis, 15 for right axis.

• getY

  public Number getY()

  See Also:

  • setY(Number)

• setY

  public void setY(Number y)

  The y position offset of the label relative to the tick position on the axis.

  Defaults to: 3

• getZIndex

  public Number getZIndex()

  See Also:

  • setZIndex(Number)

• setZIndex

  public void setZIndex(Number zIndex)

  The Z index for the axis labels.

  Defaults to: 7

• getRotation

  public String getRotation()

• setRotation

  public void setRotation(String rotation)

• setRotation

  public void setRotation(Number rotation)

• setRotationPerpendicular

  public void setRotationPerpendicular()
