How can create the yellow label in the screenshot so that it will be shown on the top layer
of the axis?

Hi Stuy,

You may use Axis.addMark on the main price chart.

When you create a financial chart using FinanceChart, you need to use addMainChart to
add the main price chart. You can save the returned XYChart object to a variable, so you
can use it to add the mark. It is like:

$myXYChart = $myFinanceChart->addMainChart(.......);

$mark = $myXYChart->yAxis->addMark($myLastClosingPrice, -1, $myLastClosingPrice,
"Arial", 8);
$mark->setMarkColor(Transparent, 0x000000, Transparent);
$mark->setBackground(0xffff00, 0xffff00);

Hope this can help.

Regards
Peter Kwan

Hi Peter,

How can I increase the width of Y-axis so that the label won't get cut off?

Hi Stuy,

You may use FinanceChart.setMargins. For example:

$c->setMargins(50, 30, 50, 35);

Hope this can help.
