Does not work with new multiples axis setup about flot-axislabels HOT 14 CLOSED

I'll look into it if I find some time. Thanks for mentioning it.

Thanks, I am using this to provide meteogram to humanitarian agencies working in remote areas as part of the Vetero project.

Example done with Highcharts:

Meteogram

I would like to use flot instead of Highcharts mainly because Highcharts outputs is now in SVG and it currently does not work with the default Android browser. While flot and jqPlot work fine. I could use jqPlot instead which already handles multiple axes title, but it does not have a plugin for plotting directional field like wind speed and direction (x,y,angle), mainly an arrow.

I made some good progress on this today and appear to have canvas labels working properly with n axes. I want to get the other renderers working, then I'll commit my changes. Should be this week sometime.

This should be working for canvas, CSS, and HTML modes. I'll get to IE transforms when I have time (if they're even still needed... I never use IE). I even managed to simplify the code in a few places. Let me know if this works for you!

Just tried it and it works perfectly in Chrome and Firefox on Lubuntu 11.10. Will try later on IE. Thank you so much for all your hard work. This brings flot to another level and more people will now use flot because of your plugin. When you are ready you should announce it in this issue:

Do you know if your plugin will be compatible with flotr2:

BTW, I am also from Montreal, but now live in New Zealand.

Merci,

Sorry, the flotr2 fork does not do multiple axes, so never mind.

It probably won't work quite properly in IE at the moment. I played with it a bit, but I'm having a hard time even getting flot itself to work in IE 9. Not sure what's going on there. Shouldn't require more than a couple tweaks anyway.

Okay got it working; I forgot to use excanvas while testing. Seems that axis labels rendered in canvas don't work with IE 8, but the default mode (IE transforms + CSS positioning) seems to work perfectly. I wouldn't force canvas (via axisLabelUseCanvas) unless you really need to, for some reason. flot-axislabels defaults to CSS transforms and will gracefully fall back to canvas and then plain HTML/CSS positioning, depending on the browser. I don't think it's worth trying to get canvas labels working in IE 8 unless there's a really good reason.

Also, if it's all right with you, I'd like to use (a slightly modified version of) your example data above to construct a public example of flot-axislabels usage. It looks better than contrived graphs with labels like "foo" and "bar". :)

Of course, it's your code, please go ahead. Once I have real data, I will give you a link to how I am using it.

Cheers,

In your readme file you mention that the appearance of the label can be changed using the id of the div (e.g. #y2axisLabel), actually it seems that there is only a class instead called #xaxisLabel or #y2axisLabel etc. So in the css stylesheet you need to use .y2axisLabel etc. to change the appearance and not #y2axisLabel.

from flot-axislabels.

Actually using .axisLabels does a better job of changing the font size as it preserves the padding and changes all the labels for all the axes.

...css
.axisLabels {
font-size: 12px;
}
...

Thanks, I was going to update the README about the axisLabels class, but I'm glad you caught the id vs class mistake. I went with classes in both cases because there might be more than one graph on a page.

If you're satisfied with these changes, feel free to close this issue. I'll probably do a blog post about it at http://cloquewerk.livejournal.com/ at some point to broadcast the improvements.

Hi tried it with Intenet Explorer 8 and it worked perfectly. Thanks for the plugin upgrade.

Cheers,
