Method Detail

getLayer

public int getLayer()

Retrieves the layer number of the component. This method gets the information from the GroupComponentInfo. Layer numbers begin at zero.

Layer numbers are relevant for O1TickLabel objects in graphs that have a time axis (dates along the axis). On a time axis, you can have labels for smaller units of time (such as days, weeks, or months) next to the axis, and labels for larger units of time (such as weeks, months, or years) that appear below the labels for smaller units.

The 0th label is the largest time unit.

Returns:

The layer number of the component.

getGroup

public int getGroup()

Retrieves the group number of the component. This method gets the information from the GroupComponentInfo. Group numbers begin at zero.

Returns:

The group number of the component.

getEdge

public int getEdge()

Retrieves the edge this group is on.

Returns:

A constant that identifies edge for this group. Valid constants are documented in the See Also section.

See Also:

DataDirector.COLUMN_EDGE, DataDirector.ROW_EDGE

getSlice

public int getSlice()

Retrieves the first slice in the group. If getEdge returns DataDirector.COLUMN_EDGE, then this method returns the first column of data that this group represents. If getEdge returns DataDirector.ROW_EDGE, then this method returns the first row of data that this group represents.

Returns:

The first slice (row or column) that the group represents.

getEdge()

toString

public java.lang.String toString()

Converts this object to a String. The String contains the name of this class, the name of the component, and the group number of the component. Group numbers begin at zero.

Overrides:

toString in class java.lang.Object

Returns:

The String representation of this object.

getComponentInfo

public ComponentInfo getComponentInfo()

Retrieves the GroupComponentInfo for the component that this GroupComponentHandle represents.

Specified by:

getComponentInfo in class ComponentHandle

Returns:

Information about the group of the represented component. The GroupComponentInfo can be null, but this is not normal.

See Also:

DataComponentHandle

getGroupAttributes

public Attributes[] getGroupAttributes()

The attributes that make up the group ex: Employee -SMITH

Returns:

array of Attributes

equals

public boolean equals(java.lang.Object o)

Overrides:

equals in class ComponentHandle

setSeriesAreRows

public void setSeriesAreRows(boolean seriesAreRows)
