    • initialise

      Initialises the renderer and returns a state object that should be passed to subsequent calls to the drawItem() method. This method will be called before the first item is rendered, giving the renderer an opportunity to initialise any state information it wants to maintain. The renderer can do nothing if it chooses.
      Specified by:
      initialise in interface XYItemRenderer
      Overrides:
      initialise in class AbstractXYItemRenderer
      Parameters:
      g2 - the graphics device.
      dataArea - the area inside the axes.
      plot - the plot.
      data - the data.
      info - an optional info collection object to return data back to the caller.
      Returns:
      A state object.
    • getPassCount

      public int getPassCount()
      Returns 2, the number of passes required by the renderer. The XYPlot will run through the dataset this number of times.
      Specified by:
      getPassCount in interface XYItemRenderer
      Overrides:
      getPassCount in class AbstractXYItemRenderer
      Returns:
      The number of passes required by the renderer.
    • drawItem

      public void drawItem(Graphics2D g2, XYItemRendererState state, Rectangle2D dataArea, PlotRenderingInfo info, XYPlot plot, ValueAxis domainAxis, ValueAxis rangeAxis, XYDataset dataset, int series, int item, CrosshairState crosshairState, int pass)
      Draws the visual representation of a single data item.
      Specified by:
      drawItem in interface XYItemRenderer
      Parameters:
      g2 - the graphics device.
      state - the renderer state.
      dataArea - the area within which the data is being drawn.
      info - collects information about the drawing.
      plot - the plot (can be used to obtain standard color information etc).
      domainAxis - the domain (horizontal) axis.
      rangeAxis - the range (vertical) axis.
      dataset - the dataset.
      series - the series index (zero-based).
