Controlling Y-Axis Label Width

[Chris Diehl]

Hi All,

I'm constructing a time series viewer with Protovis that must fit
within a box of a certain size. When I add y-axis labels, is there a
way I can bound the width of the labels so that I can keep them from
extending beyond the prescribed area? I need to make the viewer
general so that it can adapt to different datasets and available
display resolutions.

Thanks for your assistance,

Chris

You should be able to set the 'overflow' property to 'hidden', to clip the labels into their parent panel:

vis = new pv.Panel()
    .overflow(hidden)
    ....;

You could add a panel to your plot specifically to hold the labels, and set that panel's overflow property to hidden as well. That'll keep the labels within the prescribed area.
