Plotting a locus in XY space using JFreeChart

Question

I would like to plot the locus of a particle in two dimensional space.

My data is a sequence of X,Y coordinates and I would like to plot these.

Would appreciate

Answer 1

ChartFactory.createScatterPlot(), illustrated here, might be a good starting point.

FastScatterPlot, cited here and illustrated here, may be required for larger datasets.

Addendum: Looking at your revised question, I've not seen a renderer like that. You might look at a org.jfree.chart.annotations such as XYShapeAnnotation using a GeneralPath. These ArcTest variations may offer guidance. See also PointyThing.
