I currently have this issue where I am trying to hide the Y-axis of this line chart. Currently there is only the option to hide both axes in GDS.
Issue being is that the floating number at the y axis looks awkward.
Could anyone think of a work around? maybe hiding both axes and then creating a blank chart with the date values and using that as the x axis ticks.
One workaround is to draw a Shape or line over the axis and set it to a colour that blends in with the background, (although in the case above, it would cut into the first data point and data label) using Shift + movement keys for precision placement.

Can I hide data number on line chart to make it only show the trend instead of the actual data?
To remove the Axis, switching from a Time Series Chart to a Sparkline Chart does the trick (or manually remove the required labels and Axis from the Style Tab of the Time Series Chart).
To prevent interactions with the Chart, one approach is to add a transparent Shape over the Chart.

Does anyone have an example of how to render a forest plot using JFreeChart (or another Java-based open source charting library, but JFreeChart is preferred due to the integration with Jasper Reports)?
See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Forest_plot for description of the forest plot.
I was thinking about hacking somethign together using a horizontal bar chart where left side of the axis is the categorical value, and right side is the range, but the problem is the data for a forest plot comes in a set of data like: category, min, max. Such as an odd ratio with a confidence interval that spans between -.1 to 1.2. The forrest plot would basically be a line drawn between -.1 and 1.2 with a diamond marker directly in the middle (around .55).
If anyone has experience on building this visualization in JFreeChart, it would be much appreciated!
While this is not supported directly in the current release, a reasonable facsimile should be possible. Instead of a bar chart, consider using a MinMaxCategoryRenderer having PlotOrientation.HORIZONTAL and custom icons, as shown here. Add a CategoryMarker or CategoryLineAnnotation with a dashed Stroke to the CategoryPlot for the centerline; add a CategoryItemLabelGenerator to handle the labels.
I want two slider lines - one for x-axis and another for y-axis to show accurate result at any point in the line chart. As slider line move through the any axis it should display the crossing point values (display cross point values w.r.t. axis where slider line overlaps graph ) on the chart. Is there any method available for it ? If not how do I proceed for this ?
You can just place a horizontal and vertical slider next to the charts. However, I'm assuming you want to use them like a scrollbar?
You might prefer using gestures like drag and pinch to work with charts.
I have a Visiblox chart with multiple Y-axes, different units on each axis.
The user can click any of several buttons to display data as line series on the appropriate axis.
If the user clicks on data that plots against the primary or secondary Y-axis, it's possible to zoom the plot. If they click on data that plots on an "additional" Y-axis and there is no existing data on the primary or secondary Y-axis, the plot will not zoom.
If there is existing data plotted against the primary or secondary Y-axis, the chart zooms fine.
I'm guessing this is expected behavior in Visiblox, but am I missing any way to enable zooming with data plotted only on an "additional" Y-axis?
I know I could keep track of which axes are active and change the units on them to make sure that data is always plotted first on one of the functioning axes, but the user can also remove data from any axis at will, and I'd have to replot the data any time they removed data from the both of the functioning axes, leaving only data on the "additional" axis. Possible, but messy.
Thanks in advance!
From correspondance on the Visiblox blog, this is a known issue that will be addressed in the upcoming 2.2 release of Visiblox. Thanks to the Visiblox team for responding there!

I'm using the newest chart control from silverlight toolkit to plot some data. For small cases it works ok, but for bigger samples the X axis labels overlap. It would be no problem if the chart would simply omit some of the values or I could specify to just show every 10th of them ...
I couldn't find any properties providing this behavior. Any ideas?
Assuming this is a Linear axis then you can specify the interval to use via the the Interval property on the axis.
If the axis in question is Category Axis then dropping some labels may not be valuable to the user. One option is to use the LayoutTransfomer to rotate the labels to an angle reducing the width needed for each one. See this Delay Blog on the subject.
