Class IlvDefaultDataAnnotation

ilog.views.chart.graphic.IlvDefaultDataAnnotation

public class IlvDefaultDataAnnotation

A default implementation of the IlvDataAnnotation interface that draws a Swing Icon.

This class references an object that implements the javax.swing.Icon interface, and draws it next to a display point.

The location of the annotation is computed according to a position relative to the display point with which it is associated. This position can take the following values, defined in javax.swing.SwingConstants: CENTER, NORTH, NORTH_EAST, EAST, SOUTH_EAST, SOUTH, SOUTH_WEST, WEST, NORTH_WEST.

When the position is different from CENTER, an offset in pixel can be specified between the annotation and the display point.

Note that the IlvDefaultDataAnnotation is immutable: changing either the icon, position or offset creates a new instance.

CSS example:

ilvDefaultDataAnnotation {
class : "ilog.views.chart.graphic.IlvDefaultDataAnnotation(URL,position,offset)";
icon : "@#imageIcon";
offset : "2";
position : "NORTH";
URL : "url(spec)";
}
