I'm trying to get the position (in DEV coordinates) of the left had side of the longest legend label. Is there a way to get this? The bounding box method gets me the position of the legend.

In the chart at the top of the forum page, this would be the x,y location of the $ on the $23 label.

I don't know if you are referring to the legend, or the y-axis labels. You say legend, but then you reference a y-axis label, i.e. $23.

Sorry, it is the y-axis labels (the NumericAxisLabels). Using the getLocation method gives me the right hand side. I'm looking for the left hand side. I cannot find a method to get the NumericLabels that make up a NumericAxisLabels.

You should be able to call the getBoundingBox() method of the axis labels.

ChartRectangle2D rect = yAxisLabels.getBoundingBox();

This assumes the labels have already been drawn to the screen, otherwise the return value of the bounding box is meaningless.

Sorry to take so long to reply. That worked very well.

We actually have a very nice application build now on top of QC. We'd be happy to share that with you if you need a reference customer.

Thanks. Post an image of a typical chart in your application using the Insert Image option (fourth icon from right on format bar). We always like to see examples of our customers applications. It gives us ideas for new example programs. If you don't have a public URL to post the image on, you can use a free image posting service such as ImageShack, http://www.imageshack.us/.
