formatted labels

[BenJWoodcroft]

Hi,

I have a bar chart where the categories are names of (biological)
species, e.g. H. sapiens. By convention, these names are supposed to
be in italics. Is there any way to achieve this with chart tools? My
labels actually include a part that shouldn't be in italics, so I'm
after a label with HTML equivalent "<i>H. sapiens</i> (43)". Possible?

Thanks in advance.

As far as I know, there is no possibility to do that at the moment. However, you can recursively go to the relevant SVG element and set its style to italic. It is kind of a crooked solution, but it will work for now.

OK, thanks. Probably a dumb question, but how do I get the svg?

The SVG are created in a web page appended to your div. All you have to do is go over the elements within the graph's div and find your tags

I find the best way is to use jQuery to get the chart's iframe contents (I have posted about this here, here, and here as examples).  You'll have to study the structure of the SVG to figure out what you need to change.

OK, thanks for the help all. However, this all sounds a bit
complicated for my particular use case, so I don't think I'll bother,
and I'll use an entirely different solution.
