Aligning the X axes of several XYCharts

问题


I have two XYCharts that I want to display vertically aligned.

The two graphs share the same x axis, but they use different data sets, which values are not of the same order of magnitude. This makes the y axis labels quite different in size. In the end, the two x axes are not aligned anymore.

My objective is to align those x axes.

One proposed solution offers a workaround by rotating the y axis labels, making the label width identical. While this works (and I thank the contributor for his answer), this is not entirely satisfactory: as soon as I have legends that have different sizes, I'm facing the same problem (see this question in R, where several satisfying solutions where found).

I really would like to keep the label orientation unchanged and "play" with the chart components size.

For the sake of reproducibility, here is an example built from Oracle's tutorial:

import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.chart.CategoryAxis;
import javafx.scene.chart.LineChart;
import javafx.scene.chart.NumberAxis;
import javafx.scene.chart.XYChart;
import javafx.scene.layout.GridPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;

public class Test extends Application {

    @Override
    public void start(Stage stage) {
        stage.setTitle("Line Chart Sample");
        final CategoryAxis xAxis1 = new CategoryAxis();
        final NumberAxis yAxis1 = new NumberAxis();
        xAxis1.setLabel("Month");
        final LineChart<String, Number> lineChart1 =
                new LineChart<>(xAxis1, yAxis1);

        final CategoryAxis xAxis2 = new CategoryAxis();
        xAxis2.setLabel("Month");
        final NumberAxis yAxis2 = new NumberAxis();
        final LineChart<String, Number> lineChart2 =
                new LineChart<>(xAxis2, yAxis2);

        lineChart1.setTitle("Charts");
        lineChart1.setLegendVisible(false);
        lineChart2.setLegendVisible(false);

        XYChart.Series series1 = new XYChart.Series();
        series1.setName("Portfolio 1");

        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Jan", 23));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Feb", 14));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Mar", 15));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Apr", 24));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("May", 34));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Jun", 36));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Jul", 22));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Aug", 45));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Sep", 43));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Oct", 17));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Nov", 29));
        series1.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Dec", 25));

        XYChart.Series series2 = new XYChart.Series();
        series2.setName("Portfolio 2");
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Jan", 330000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Feb", 340000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Mar", 250000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Apr", 440000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("May", 390000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Jun", 160000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Jul", 550000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Aug", 540000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Sep", 480000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Oct", 270000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Nov", 370000));
        series2.getData().add(new XYChart.Data("Dec", 290000));

        lineChart1.getData().addAll(series1);
        lineChart2.getData().addAll(series2);

        VBox vBox = new VBox();
        vBox.addAll(lineChart1, lineChart2);

        Scene scene = new Scene(gridPane, 800, 600);

        stage.setScene(scene);
        stage.show();
    }


    public static void main(String[] args) {
        launch(args);
    }

}

Here is the result:

Is it possible to control the size of the chart component to make the two x axis aligned?

I have tried to change the y axis prefered and minimum width but it does not seem to work.

I'm using Java 8 at the moment. Migrating to Java 9 is possible if necessary.

Edit: As suggested in the answers, I have reduced the scope of this question to the issue of aligning the x axes. The sizing issue is asked here.

Get rid of the GridPane code and replace it with:

VBox vBox = new VBox(lineChart1, lineChart2);
Scene scene = new Scene(vBox, 800, 600);

Here's a quick shot on a specialized Layout that

  • only cares about children that are of type XYChart
  • lays them out vertically with a configurable spacing between them
  • sizes the yAxis width to its prefWidth, note that we need to pass-in the actual height of the axis (vs. the typical -1) ... took me a while ..
  • aligns each horizontally such that the xAxis are aligned and the yAxis has enough space for its labels

It's not production quality, just for starters on how to do it :)
