tickRenderer	A class of a rendering engine for creating the ticks labels displayed on the plot, See $.jqplot.AxisTickRenderer.

Properties

sortMergedLabels

this.sortMergedLabels = false

True to sort tick labels when labels are created by merging x axis values from multiple series. That is, say you have two series like:

line1 = [[2006, 4],            [2008, 9], [2009, 16]];
line2 = [[2006, 3], [2007, 7], [2008, 6]];

If no label array is specified, tick labels will be collected from the x values of the series. With sortMergedLabels set to true, tick labels will be:

[2006, 2007, 2008, 2009]

With sortMergedLabels set to false, tick labels will be:

[2006, 2008, 2009, 2007]

Note, this property is specified on the renderOptions for the axes when creating a plot:

axes:{xaxis:{renderer:$.jqplot.CategoryAxisRenderer, rendererOptions:{sortMergedLabels:true}}}

tickRenderer

A class of a rendering engine for creating the ticks labels displayed on the plot, See $.jqplot.AxisTickRenderer. this.tickRenderer = $.jqplot.AxisTickRenderer; this.labelRenderer = $.jqplot.AxisLabelRenderer;
