Valid types are defined by the following constants: NO_LABELS, VALUE_LABELS.

Parameters:
type - the type.

getLabelFont

public java.awt.Font getLabelFont()
Returns the label font.

Returns:
the label font.

setLabelFont

public void setLabelFont(java.awt.Font font)
Sets the label font.

Notifies registered listeners that the plot has been changed.

Parameters:
font - the new label font.

public void setSeriesPaint(int series,
                           java.awt.Paint paint)
Sets the series paint.

Parameters:
series - the series index.

getData

public ValueDataset[] getData()
Returns the dataset.

Provided for convenience.

Returns:
The dataset for the plot, cast as a ValueDataset.

addData

public void addData(ValueDataset data)
Adds a dataset to the compass.

Parameters:

draw

public void draw(java.awt.Graphics2D g2,
                 java.awt.geom.Rectangle2D plotArea,
