Render problem with dot_line_plot

[Paul]

Whenever I create a dot_line_plot, and even by running the examples
found here, http://linil.wordpress.com/2008/06/14/cairoplot-plotting-graphics-using-python-and-cairo/,
the render is not exactly the same as expected. There is no legend
next to the dot lines (on the right), so my graphs aren't very useful,
whithout any informations...

I'm using pycairo 1.4.12 on OpenSuse 11, and have tested several
CairoPlot version (trunk, 1.1, and the "legends" branch), without
success. Anyone has an idea of the possible cause of this problem ?

Here is the code I use:
#!/usr/bin/python
import cairo
import math

import CairoPlot

teste_data = [0, 1, 3, 8, 9, 0, 10, 10, 2, 1]
CairoPlot.dot_line_plot('teste', teste_data, 400, 300, axis=True)

teste_data_2 = {"john" : [10, 10, 10, 10, 30], "mary" : [0, 0, 3, 5,
15], "philip" : [13, 33, 11, 25, 2]}
teste_h_legend = ["jan/2008", "feb/2008", "mar/2008", "apr/2008", "may/
2008"]
CairoPlot.dot_line_plot('teste2', teste_data_2, 400, 300, axis = True,
grid = True,dots=True)

Hello Paul,

Through the evolution of CairoPlot, that legend representation was removed as it had too many overlapping problems.

Using the trunk version, take a look at this example on tests.py

#Labels

data = { "john" : [-5, -2, 0, 1, 3], "mary" : [0, 0, 3, 5, 2], "philip" : [-2, -3, -4, 2, 1] }
x_labels = [ "jan/2008", "feb/2008", "mar/2008", "apr/2008", "may/2008" ]
y_labels = [ "very low", "low", "medium", "high", "very high" ]
cairoplot.dot_line_plot( "dot_line_2_dictionary_labels", data, 400, 300, x_labels = x_labels, 
                         y_labels = y_labels, axis = True, grid = True,
                         x_title = "x axis", y_title = "y axis", series_legend=True )

This example will generate a little white box on the upper right corner containing the legend of the chart :)

Hope this helps,

Awesome support for an awesome library. This is exactly what I needed.

Thank you very much,
Paul.
