Chart.toImage - Axis tick labels with rotation of 45 overlaps with plot area

Hi,

Plaese find the below sample which demonstrate the issue mentioned -
1. I have set a rotation of 45 for category axis tick labels. When I take image using toImage, it overlaps with plot area. Plaese find the screen shot for details.

I am using Aspose.CellsV2.1.2.4. BTW, do you have any utility class/method to find aspose version? Now I have a bunch of Aspose.Cells jar files. It was nice if I can get the version with a single line of code in my java file.

Hi,

1) I have found the issue as you have mentioned. I have logged your issue into our issue tracking system with an issue id: CELLSJAVA-14681. We will inform you when it is sorted out.

2) Yes, Aspose.Cells for Java does provide CellsHelper.getReleaseVersion() API to get the version number of the component.
See the document for further reference:
http://www.aspose.com/documentation/java-components/aspose.cells-for-java/check-version-number-of-the-component.html

Thanks for your continuous testing and enhancing the Chart to Image feature.

Hi,

<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

Please try the attached latest version. We have fixed the issue of tick labels overlapping the plot area.

Thank You & Best Regards,

Working fine.

The issues you have found earlier (filed as 14681) have been fixed in this update.

Hi,

Please change the orientation to -45, and see that generated image still show 45 orientation.

Change
chart.getCategoryAxis().setRotation(45);

to

chart.getCategoryAxis().setRotation(-45);

Note that actual excel chart shows -45 orientation.

If you change the following lines, you can see it rotate -45 in the image as well. (Although it overlaps with axis line - another issue already logged for that.)

dataSheet.getCells().getCell("A2").setValue("United States");
dataSheet.getCells().getCell("A3").setValue("United Kingdom");

to

dataSheet.getCells().getCell("A2").setValue("US");
dataSheet.getCells().getCell("A3").setValue("UK");

Thanks
Muhammed
