$.jqplot.CanvasAxisLabelRenderer

Renderer to draw axis labels with a canvas element to support advanced featrues such as rotated text. This renderer uses a separate rendering engine to draw the text on the canvas. Two modes of rendering the text are available. If the browser has native font support for canvas fonts (currently Mozila 3.5 and Safari 4), you can enable text rendering with the canvas fillText method. You do so by setting the “enableFontSupport” option to true.

Browsers lacking native font support will have the text drawn on the canvas using the Hershey font metrics. Even if the “enableFontSupport” option is true non-supporting browsers will still render with the Hershey font.

Properties

angle

this.angle = 0

angle of text, measured clockwise from x axis.

show

this.show = true

whether or not to show the tick (mark and label).

showLabel

this.showLabel = true

whether or not to show the label.

label

this.label = ''

label for the axis.

fontFamily

this.fontFamily = '"Trebuchet MS", Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif'

CSS spec for the font-family css attribute. Applies only to browsers supporting native font rendering in the canvas tag. Currently Mozilla 3.5 and Safari 4.

fontWeight

this.fontWeight = 'normal'

CSS spec for fontWeight: normal, bold, bolder, lighter or a number 100

900

fontStretch

this.fontStretch = 1.0

Multiplier to condense or expand font width. Applies only to browsers which don’t support canvas native font rendering.

textColor

this.textColor = '#666666'

css spec for the color attribute.

enableFontSupport

this.enableFontSupport = true

true to turn on native canvas font support in Mozilla 3.5+ and Safari 4+. If true, label will be drawn with canvas tag native support for fonts. If false, label will be drawn with Hershey font metrics.

pt2px

this.pt2px = null

Point to pixel scaling factor, used for computing height of bounding box around a label. The labels text renderer has a default setting of 1.4, which should be suitable for most fonts. Leave as null to use default. If tops of letters appear clipped, increase this. If bounding box seems too big, decrease. This is an issue only with the native font renderering capabilities of Mozilla 3.5 and Safari 4 since they do not provide a method to determine the font height.
