Interface JRChartAxis

All Known Implementing Classes:

JRBaseChartAxis, JRDesignChartAxis, JRFillChartAxis

public interface JRChartAxis

Describes an axis that can be added to a multiple axis chart. The name "axis" is a bit of a misnomer, as it really contains information about a new dataset to plot, the axis to plot it against, and how to render that dataset.
