Dropping label on "aggregates data labels" |

Hi Peter,
We have a pretty plain and simple histogram that conveys zero values, both at the beginning and and end X axis values and possibly some inside. We just used SetAggregateLabelStyle to get these values.
Great.. It works well! However, we would like to drop these zero values at both ends of the axis...
We could possibly drop the "setAggregateLabelStyle" stuff and add them programmatically via some sort of "addText" loop.
Is there a smarter CD way to discount these "0" values at both ends, whilst retaining the internal 0 values - blue in the sample?

Hi Daniel,
Yes, you can use Layer.addCustomAggregateLabel.
https://www.advsofteng.com/doc/cdnet.htm#Layer.addCustomAggregateLabel.htm
I am not sure which programming language you are using, so I will just C# as an example is:
for (int i = 0; i < myData.Length; ++i)
{
// Display labels if they are not zero and within 3 bars from the end points
if ((myData[i] != 0) || (i >= 3) || (i < myData.Length - 3))
myBarLayer.addCustomAggregateLabel(i, "" + myData[i], "Arial", 10, 0x333333);
}
The "if" is the condition under which the labels should be displayed. You can modify it to fit you need.

Hi Peter,
Thanks for the great forum and your fast answers. Always to the point!
Daniel
PS: I am using the COM-based edition and looking forward to get the coming 7.0 edition. Great news these CDML enhancements (rounded borders and grammar available for legend items)! I also definitely appreciate that fonts can be called by names. |

Hi Daniel,
I just want to get some usage statistics. Are you using the COM edition for desktop or web (ASP) application?

Using the COM edition for desktop. Looking forward to pursue later next year onto the python version. Thanks for the python stuff. This large platform support is really comfortable to work with!
