How do I change a JFreeChart's size

Question

I\'ve added a JFreeChart to a JPanel (using a BorderLayout), and it\'s huge. Is there something I can do to make it smaller?<

Answer 1

I had a problem with my pie chart being too big with BorderLayout too. I ended up solving my problem by converting the chart to an image instead.

Code

 private PieDataset updateCSFDataSet(){
        DefaultPieDataset dataSet = new DefaultPieDataset();
            dataSet.setValue("Clear(" + clearCount + ")" , clearCount);
            dataSet.setValue("Smoky(" + smokyCount + ")", smokyCount);
            dataSet.setValue("Foggy(" + foggyCount + ")", foggyCount);
            dataSet.setValue("Skipped(" + skipCount + ")", skipCount);
            dataSet.setValue("Unlabeled(" + unlabeledCount + ")", unlabeledCount);
        return dataSet;
    }

    private ImageIcon createChart(String title, PieDataset dataSet){
        JFreeChart chart = ChartFactory.createPieChart(
                title,
                dataSet,
                true,
                false,
                false
        );

        PiePlot plot = (PiePlot) chart.getPlot();
        plot.setLabelFont(new Font("SansSerif", Font.PLAIN, 12));
        plot.setNoDataMessage("No data available");
        plot.setCircular(true);
        plot.setIgnoreZeroValues(true);
        plot.setLabelGap(0.02);

        return new ImageIcon(chart.createBufferedImage(400,300));
    }
