This is the Change Log for PHPlot. The project home page is http://sourceforge.net/projects/phplot/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2011-01-15 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.3.1 ===== * phplot.php: Updated version * README.txt: Updated for new release * NEWS.txt: Add text for new release 2011-01-09 * Fixed some style / indent errors, and 1 redundant test. 2011-01-03 * For bug 3143586 "Multiple plots per image - fixes & docs": Make sure there is a documented way to reset PHPlot feature settings, especially those for which the default settings result in automatic calculated values. Where possible, calling a Set*() function with no arguments should reset the feature to defaults. + Changed SetLegendPixels() arguments to be optional with default NULL meaning reset to automatic positioning. + Fixed SetXAxisPosition() and SetYAxisPosition() to accept empty string '' to mean reset to default automatic positioning. Make arguments optional, defaulting to empty string. + Changed SetNumXTicks() and SetNumYTicks() arguments to be optional with default empty string '' meaning reset to of automatic calculation. * Changed SetPointShapes() to use CheckOptionArray(). This simplifies the function with no change in operation. * Extend copyright years to 2011. 2010-12-30 * Fix for bug 3147397 "Data colors missing with multiple plots": + Do not truncate the data_colors and related arrays, so the full set of colors will be available for subsequent plots on the image. (Color indexes are still allocated in the image only as needed.) + New internal functions GetColorIndexArray() and GetDarkColorIndexArray(), replacing previous use of array_map(). + Removed internal function truncate_array() - no longer used. + Changed SetColorIndexes(), NeedDataDarkColors(), and NeedErrorBarColors() to only allocate the color indexes that will be needed (instead of allocating all colors in the truncated color descriptor arrays). 2010-12-28 * Instead of throwing an error, SetLegend(NULL) now clears the legend array. This can be useful with multiple plots on an image. Before this change, only SetLegend(array()) did that (possibly by accident). 2010-12-27 * Do not have SetDefaultStyles() call deprecated SetLabelColor(). * Fixes for bug 3143586 "Multiple plots per image - fixes & docs": + Fix DrawLegend so it doesn't forget that the legend position was specified in world coordinates. This fixes the legend position for plots after the first. + Don't draw the image border more than once (although this would probably have no impact on the resulting image). This parallels the behavior for the main plot title and the image background. Replaced member variables background_done and title_done with a new member array done[] which will track when these elements were done. 2010-12-06 * Fix comments above CalcPlotAreaWorld(). Deleted incorrect information from before data-data-yx existed, and before DecodeDataType rewrite. 2010-12-04 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.3.0 ===== * phplot.php: Updated version * README.txt: Updated for new release * NEWS.txt: Add text for new release 2010-12-03 * Feature request 3127005 "Ability to suppress X/Y axis lines": Added SetDrawXAxis() and SetDrawYAxis() to control flags which will suppress drawing the X or Y axis lines. (These lines were probably the only PHPlot elements that could not be turned off.) Changed DrawXAxis() and DrawYAxis() to conditionally draw the axis lines. 2010-11-28 * Feature request 3117873 "Data value labels in more plot types": Implemented Data Value Labels for plot types points, lines, linepoints, and squared. Added 2 class variables which can be set to control the distance and angle of the labels from points. New internal function CheckDataValueLabels() calculates position and text alignment for these labels. * Updated comments for Set[XY]DataLabelPos to match the text in the manual, which was rewritten to clarify label types. 2010-11-23 * Code cleanup. Moved some functions around to group "plot drawing helpers" separately from "plot drawing". No changes to operation. 2010-11-21 * Feature request 3111166 "Control legend colorbox width": Added a class variable legend_colorbox_width which can be changed to make the colorboxes wider or narrower. 2010-11-16 * Feature request 3093483 "Investing support chart types": Added 3 new plot types: Basic OHLC (Open/High/Low/Close), Candlesticks, and Filled Candlesticks. Implemented with one new function to handle the 3 new plot types: ohlc, candlesticks, and candlesticks2. 2010-11-11 * Moved information about plot types into a new static member array plots[]. (This is an internal change with no impact on usage, but will make it easier to add new plot types.) SetPlotType() no longer needs a list of plot types to check, FindDataLimits() does not need to check for specific plot types to to process the data array, and DrawGraph() uses data from the array rather than knowing about all the plot types. 2010-10-31 * Changed internal CalcBarWidths() to take two arguments which indicate how it should calculate bar widths, rather than having it check the plot_type directly. (Taken from another, experimental change. This minimizes places where plot_type is directly used.) 2010-10-03 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.2.0 ===== * phplot.php: Updated version * README.txt: Updated for new release * NEWS.txt: Add text for new release * Makefile: Removed HorizontalBars.txt from release. This is now all documented in the reference manual. 2010-10-01 * Rewrite color handling. Default and specified colors are now validated, converted to RGBA arrays, and saved. The colors indexes are not allocated until graph drawing time. Unneeded colors are not allocated. Fix bug 3045131 "SetTransparentColor problems": Transparency setup is deferred to graph drawing time, after most other colors are allocated. Fixes SetTransparentColor order dependency, and works with data colors. Fix bug 3049726 "Optimize color allocation": Colors allocation is deferred to graph drawing time, and colors for most elements are only allocated if needed. In particular, the data colors and dark colors, which used 32 slots, now only get defined as needed. Feature request (partial) 3077554 "Finer control over plot element colors": The colors of the main, X, and Y titles can now be controlled separately. Change details: New internal functions: GetColorIndex(), GetDarkColorIndex() Allocate pre-parsed colors for elements. SetColorIndexes() Does the deferred color allocation and defaults. NeedDataDarkColors(), NeedErrorBarColors() Called by graph drawing functions if those colors are needed. GetDataColor(), GetDataErrorColors(), GetBarColors() Custom or standard data color assignment for most plot types. truncate_array() Shorten an array. Used to limit data color allocation. Removed internal functions: SetIndexColor(), SetIndexDarkColor() Unneeded. Color handling is now in two separate phases. Removed internal member variable: data_colors_alpha PHPlot no longer calls SetDataColors before plotting, so this variable is not needed to preserve the default alpha. New internal member variables: transparent_color Saves color value from SetTransparentColor. For bug 3045131. x_title_color, y_title_color, ndx_x_title_color, ndx_y_title_color For title colors. DrawXTitle and DrawYTitle use them now. Changed internal member variables: i_border, plot_bg_color, bg_color, label_color, text_color, etc. All variables for colors now always hold a parsed 4-component (RGBA) color specification as an array, and are no longer statically initialized to a color name. New public functions: SetXTitleColor(), SetYTitleColor() These can be used to make the 3 titles have different colors. 2010-09-26 * Don't let SetXDataLabelPos() accept 'xaxis' or 'all' as valid. Don't let SetXTickLabelPos(), SetYTickLabelPos() accept 'all' as valid. These were never implemented and never documented. * Feature request #3073679 "Stacked bar plots with negative values": Allow stacked bar plots (vertical and horizontal) to work with negative values. Changed FindDataLimits() to not take abs() values for stackedbar when calculating the data range. Changed DrawStackedBars() and DrawHorizStackedBars() to handle negative values, including proper label positions. The first non-zero value in a row sets the direction of the bar. Mixing positive and negative values within a row works but the results are not useful. * New internal DrawBar() moves common code from 4 bars and stackedbars drawing functions and makes it easier to deal with shading vs bar direction. 2010-09-24 * Fix bug 3074402 "Fix Y axis default for horizontal plots": Make the default axis positions symmetrical for vertical plots (X and Y) and horizontal plots (Y and X). This fixes the problem with horizontal bar/thinbarline plots that have negative data, where the Y axis stayed on the left and the bars went rightward. 2010-09-01 * Fix bug 3056991 "Internal methods should be 'protected'": Changed CheckDataArray(), number_format(), FindDataLimits(), and DrawBackground() to be 'protected'. The test suite no longer calls these directly. For SetIndexColor(), SetRGBColor(), DrawText(), SizeText(), xtr(), and ytr(), left these as public with a comment indicating they should be treated as protected. * Fix bug 3057000 "Review 'deprecated' methods": + Changed deprecated method SetNewPlotAreaPixels() to just call SetPlotAreaPixels(). It was suspicious as coded, and was found to be equivalent to SetPlotAreaPixels(). + Removed SetColor(), which didn't do anything. It was calling SetRGBColor and discarding the result. After reviewing the history of this in all CVS versions, it does not seem to have ever been coded correctly, so there is no harm in removing it. + All other deprecated methods seem OK and are left as is. 2010-08-30 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.1.3 ===== * phplot.php: Updated version * README.txt: Updated for new release * NEWS.txt: Add text for new release 2010-08-27 * Fix bug 3051832 "Let PHP/GD find the font file": Instead of checking for file existence, PHPlot now uses a non-drawing GD operation to validate a TrueType font in SetFontTTF(). This allows GD to use its internal search path, making it likely that fonts can be found without needing a platform-dependent path in your script. Full paths will still work, so there is no compatibility issue. * Fix bug 3051906 "Better choice for default TT font": Removed "benjamingothic.ttf" as the default TT font setting. This has not been included in PHPlot since 2004. Changed SetFontTTF() to call new GetDefaultFontTTF(), which will try a number of sans-serif font names the first time it needs a default TT font. Considering the above fix to finding fonts, this has a good chance of finding a working font. It is known to work on Windows and some Linux distributions. 2010-08-19 * Makefile: Removed phplot_data.php from list of files to release. Reference bug report 3048267. This file has not been maintained or tested, and has bugs. It will remain in CVS, but not be included in PHPlot releases. 2010-08-17 * Change new DrawLinePoints(). It does not have to check and handle error bar plots, as DrawDots and DrawLines will do that. 2010-08-16 * Rewrote DecodeDataType(). Previous implementation was hard to extend and inefficient. Now it uses new class variables (not a returned array) and is only called once, by DrawGraph. Changed all users of data_type to use the new variables. In CheckDataArray(), calculate data_columns properly for text-data-single data type (pie chart) too. Simplify DrawPie to use this, and merge 2 of the 3 cases. Have a single function handle each plot type, so it can properly check the data type and report a correct error message showing all supported types. For example, DrawBars is now the entry point for both bars and horizontal bars; DrawGraph does not directly call DrawHorizBars. Similar for DrawStackedBars and DrawHorizStackedBars. Lines, Points, and Linepoints also now have a single function each, dispatching to others as needed. (These changes were split off from an upcoming, larger change.) 2010-08-14 * Fixes to SetDataValues: need to clear out the 2 arrays before setting values in a loop, else if the function is used more than once then old values will remain. Move records_per_group calculation outside the loop. (These were split off from upcoming, larger changes.) * Part 4 of horizontal plots: implement horizontal thinbarline plots. Added new data type 'data-data-yx' (label, Y, X1, X2, ...). DrawThinBarLines() now draws either vertical or horizontal plots, and supports data types text-data, data-data, text-data-yx, data-data-yx. Fixed DecodeDataType() to handle text-data-single too, for completeness. * Fix for over-padding style and color arrays. These were padded to records_per_group, but that is the maximum data array row size. The number of actual data sets is less, and depends on the data type. Calculate the correct number as data_columns at the top of DrawGraph, and use that to pad the arrays. Also moved early error checking in DrawGraph() into new CheckDataArray(). 2010-08-09 * Code cleanup. This is a large change to unify the comment and coding stye used in PHPlot. The PEAR style guide is being used as a reference, but PHPlot will never be 100% compliant. This patch introduces no functional changes at all. - Limit line length to 110. - Remove obsolete, partially implemented Doxygen comments. - Add descriptive comment above functions where missing. - Use consistent comment markers and control structure spacing. - Remove ctags-confusing end of function comments. - Rewrote a few if/else blocks for cleaner logic. - Re-order some functions for consistency (X, then Y). 2010-08-04 * Implemented horizontal stacked bar plots: Use the same data type introduced for horizontal bars, 'text-data-yx', and the same plot type 'stackedbars', to make a horizontal stacked bar plot. Data value labels, both at the ends of the bars and within the bars ('plotstack' labels) are available with horizontal stacked bars. * Internal function DrawDataLabel() is replaced by DrawDataValueLabel(), with different usage. The new function can also check to see if a label fits in the allocated space. * Fixed the text size check in stacked bar plots for data value labels within the bars. The check only worked correctly for 0 degree labels. It now works with any text angle. It suppresses the label if it is too high (for vertical stacked bar plots) or too wide (for horizontal stacked bar plots) to fit in the bar segment to which it belongs. Note that it only checks in the bar direction. If the text is too wide (for vertical bars), or too high (for horizontal bars), it will still be plotted, but will cross the sides of the bar. 2010-07-28 * Allow callbacks to return a value (to support new data_color callback). * Feature request 3034164 "Extended control of data colors": Define new callback 'data_color' for picking the data color. Changed internal plot drawing functions DrawDots, DrawLines, DrawSquared, DrawBars, DrawStackedBars, DrawDotsError, DrawThinBarLines, DrawLinesError, and DrawHorizBars to use the data_color callback (if defined) to select the data colors. * SetRGBArray code cleanup (no functional changes). 2010-07-27 * Fixes for error bars: Code cleanup in DrawYErrorBar(), with no functional change. Suppress duplicate drawing of error bars with 'linepoints' error plots. This was already fixed for data labels. Now error bars will only be drawn by the 'points' part, not the 'lines' part. There should be no visible changes to plots. (This is needed for a future change). 2010-07-26 * Horizontal bar charts (still an experimental feature) can now have data value labels. * HorizontalBars.txt: Fix incorrect description of bar direction. Add text explaining the new data value labels. 2010-06-29 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.1.2 ===== * phplot.php: Updated version * README.txt: Updated for new release * NEWS.txt: Add text for new release 2010-06-26 * Feature request 2885930 "Horizontal Bars": Horizontal bar charts are implemented, as an experimental feature. A new data type 'text-data-yx' was added, which works with 'bars' plot type to produce a horizontal bar chart from a data array with X values for each Y value. Changes were made to FindDataLimits, CalcMargins, CalcPlotAreaWorld, CalcBarWidths, and CalcMaxDataLabelSize to handle the new data type. Other changes were made to handle label position defaults and grid defaults. New drawing functions were added for horizontal bars. * HorizontalBars.txt: new documentation file for experimental feature. * Makefile: List new documentation file. 2010-06-25 * Each plot-type drawing function now checks that it is getting a data type that it knows how to handle. A new internal function unifies the checking and error message. (This is associated with an upcoming, bigger change.) Compatibility: If you were using an invalid data type for a plot type whose function did not check, will now get an error. * Removed some dubious code from DrawLines() and DrawSquared() and rewrote comments there. The code initialized lastx[0] and lasty[0], but lasty was mapped using the X (rather than Y) function. This was obviously wrong, but closer inspection showed that the values were never, used so the code was removed. 2010-06-13 * Truecolor.txt: removed * Makefile, README.txt: Removed reference to Truecolor.txt. Full documentation for truecolor images is now in the Reference Manual. 2010-06-02 * Fix bug 3010116 "Bad rendering of title in multi-plot image when using TTF": Make sure the main title is drawn only once. (If drawn multiple times with TrueType font text, the anti-aliasing effects result in poor quality text.) 2010-05-31 * Improvements to truecolor support (from feature request 2947679): Truecolor support is now better integrated. The derived class only has the constructor now, and the base class itself provides the alpha color component support through the internal functions SetIndexColor(), SetIndexDarkColor(), and SetRGBColor(). This means alpha channel works with palette images too (in so far as GD supports this). * Truecolor.txt: Updated per changes to truecolor support. * Image tiling with mode 'scale' in tile_img(), used with image and plot area backgrounds, now uses imagecopyresampled() rather than imagecopyresized(). They are the same with palette images, but the resampled copy gets better results with truecolor images. 2010-05-29 * Feature request 3002606 "Add to plot and image border options": Added options 'right', 'top', and 'bottom' to SetPlotBorderType() (existing options are 'left', 'sides', 'none', and 'full'). This now also accepts an array of the above options, giving complete control over which sides to draw. Added option 'solid' to SetImageBorderType() to use the actual color set with SetImageBorderColor(), rather than the darker shade as type 'plain' does (for some reason). New function SetImageBorderWidth() sets the width of the image border. The image border width is now accounted for in margin calculations, although existing plots will not change. 2010-04-04 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.1.1 ===== * phplot.php: Updated version * README.txt: Updated for new release * NEWS.txt: Add text for new release 2010-04-01 * Remove & from argument in SetDataValues(). The data array is not modified and does not need to be passed by reference. (There is no performance advantage, either.) 2010-03-29 * Feature request 2947679 "Support for alpha blending/Truecolor": Implemented truecolor image support with a new class PHPlot_truecolor, extended color specifications to allow specification of an alpha value, and added a new optional parameter to SetDataColors for a default alpha value for all data colors. This feature is *EXPERIMENTAL* (see next item). * Truecolor.txt: New file, documentation for the new truecolor capability. (The Truecolor feature is experimental, which means it is subject to change in incompatible ways and the documentation has not yet been incorporated into the PHPlot Reference Manual.) * Makefile: Include new documentation file in release. 2010-03-26 Fixed bug 2976735 "Improvements and fixes for 'area' plots": Rewrote DrawArea() function which handles 'area' plot. Part 1: This is related to feature request 2947679, Truecolor support with transparency. The area plot function was filling each area from the X axis up to the Y value, resulting in area overlaps. This wasn't a problem with opaque colors, but with transparency, the overlapping areas resulted in changed colors. The rewritten function fills the area between each line instead of from each line down to the X axis. Plots with opaque colors will not change. Part 2: Area plots now work when the X axis is moved up with SetXAxisPosition(). Part 3: Fixed FindDataLimits() for area (and stackedbars too) to take absolute values of Y values. The drawing function was doing this, but not FindDataLimits, resulting in incorrect limits if any Y<0. Part 4: The rewritten DrawArea() also handles a new plot type 'stackedarea'. This is an area plot where the Y values are stacked, similar to 'stackedbars'. Note: As part of the changes, it is now an error to try an area plot with an unequal number of Y points for each X. 2010-03-23 * Feature request 2973995 "Add y-Data to Stackedbars": Implemented Y Data Labels for Stacked Bar charts (stackedbars). The labels are enabled with SetYDataLabelPos, same as with bar charts. There are two types of labels: above the stack with the total, and within the bars at each segment. 'plotin' turns on the upper ones, and 'plotstack' turns both on. * Other changes: + Removed unimplemented second argument to SetYDataLabelPos. + Fixed questionable logic in SetYDataLabelPos when given an argument that belongs with SetYTickLabelPos. + Fix comments at top of plot-type Draw functions. * Fix for bug 2974639 "Stacked bars plot breaks with X axis != 0": Stacked bar plots with non-zero X axis position no longer break apart into segments with gaps. The bars are drawn up from the X axis, and any segments or partial segments below the X axis are not drawn. 2010-03-22 * Change related to feature request 2947679 - Fix 'dot' point shape: Use imagefilledellipse(), not imagefilledarc(), when drawing the 'dot' point shape. The fix was needed for future support of truecolor images with transparency, but filled dots from imagefilledellipse() look better (rounder) with regular images and opaque colors. Credit to mvaldez for identifying the problem and providing the fix. 2010-03-04 * Fix for bug 2963757 "point_counts undefined error in 5.1.0": Fixed CheckPointParams so it sets point_counts even when the point shape and point size arrays are already the same size and do not need padding. 2010-01-26 * Fix for bug 2938219 "Bars go in wrong direction": Fixed CalcAxisPositions() to be consistent in positioning the X axis. When all Y values are <0 and the Y=0 line is not part of the plot range, PHPlot will now default the X axis to the top of the plot, not the bottom. This fixes the problem with bars to negative Y values being drawn downward if Y=0 is visible, but upward if Y=0 is not visible. This also affects thinbarline plots. Credit to lauryn1298 for finding the bug. 2009-12-24 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.1.0 ===== 2009-12-18 * Change for bug 1795971 "Fix default data colors": The default Data Color and Error Bar Color arrays now have 16 different colors, no duplicates, and nothing so light that it is invisible. Using '' or False as the argument to SetDataColors, SetErrorBarColors, and SetDataBorderColors now re-initializes the map to the defaults. This was previously undocumented, and in some cases set the map to something different from the default. 2009-12-15 * Cleanup: Remove DrawAxisLegend() - empty function marked TODO, not really clear what it was meant to do. 2009-12-14 * Fix for bug 2914403 "Pie + X/Y titles: Undefined property error": In DrawGraph(), don't try to draw X or Y titles for pie charts. * Feature request 2899921: "allow different format for data and tick labels"; Bug 2906436: "Fixes for X Tick Labels vs X Data Labels", and partial implementation of changes from user 'adoll' regarding tick vs data labels: New public functions: + SetXDataLabelType() : Sets formatting for X Data Labels + SetYDataLabelType() : Sets formatting for Y Data Labels (bar charts) + SetXDataLabelAngle() : Sets text angle for X Data Labels + SetYDataLabelAngle() : Sets text angle for Y Data Label (bar charts) The defaults for these are set up to be fully backward compatible with previous releases of PHPlot (except see the next item). Re-used function name SetXDataLabelAngle(): + This has been deprecated and undocumented since 2003-12-07, and used to just call SetXLabelAngle(). For new behavior, see above. Changes to public functions: + SetXDataLabelPos() and SetXTickLabelPos() no longer cancel each other out (set the other control variable to 'none'). Instead, they are both considered before plot drawing. Changes to internal functions: + DrawDataLabel() now uses the font, angle, and color arguments as provided, and does not substitute values if they are empty. + SetLabelType() now takes mode='xd' and 'yd' for X Data and Y Data label formatting; 'x' and 'y' are for tick labels only now. + Functions that work on Data labels now call FormatLabel() with the new mode parameter value 'xd' or 'yd, and use the new data_label_angle variables. + New CheckLabels(), used by DrawGraph to process label parameters. + CalcMargins() - Rewritten to handle changes to Tick and Data labels. Changes to internal class variables: + New: x_data_label_angle, y_data_label_angle + Do not initialize x_tick_label_pos or x_data_label_pos, so that CheckLabels() can tell if they were set or not and apply defaults. + Initialize y_data_label_pos to 'none', not 'plotleft'. + Add 2 more indexes to label_format[] array: 'xd' and 'yd'. * Cleanup: + Delete unused internal class variable: draw_y_data_label_lines + Delete unused function SetDrawYDataLabelLines() 2009-12-07 * Fix bug 1795972 "Fix default point shapes": + Added 10 new point shapes to the existing 10 shapes. + Changed the default point shape from all 'diamond' to a selection of up to 10 different shapes. + Fixed bug in the code that tried to set the point shapes and sizes arrays to be the same size. This was not working, resulting in unexpected point sizes. + Changed default point size to 6 for all shapes. It was trying to be "5, 5, 3" but due to several bugs this was not working. + Do not adjust shape sizes to even numbers (was done for only two shapes). Instead, consistently truncate size/2 when needed. NOTE: These may change the look of 'points' and 'linepoints' plots. * Changed startup initialization code: + SetDefaultStyles() was doing some odd things using a variable called "session_set", with comments referring to non-existent session support code. This has been removed. There should be no visible changes from this. PHPlot does not use PHP sessions. 2009-12-04 * Fix for bug 2908256, errors in pie charts with bad data array: (From a Drupal contrib module report by thekevinday.) With pie charts only, a data array with no valid Y values resulted in PHP error messages. All other plot types handle this by producing an image without a graph. Fixed DrawPieChart to behave this way too. If there are no valid Y values, or if the sum of all Y values is 0, do not error out, but don't draw a pie chart either. Also, pie charts now ignore non-numeric Y values, like other plot types. 2009-11-20 (lbayuk) * Fix for bug 2900914 "Problem with display of 0 on Y axis": Changed how X and Y values are stepped by tick intervals, to avoid cumulative round-off error. This fixes the problem when Y crosses 0 with a tick step such as 0.1 resulting in a long label for a very small but non-zero number. Fixed DrawXTicks, DrawYTicks, and CalcMaxTickLabelSize. (Originally reported by cncnet) 2009-11-19 (lbayuk) * Improve support for using callbacks to annotate plots: Added new callback 'draw_all', called after all drawing. Supply plot_area[] as argument to some drawing callbacks. Added new method GetDeviceXY() to translate from world coordinates. Allow NULL or '' for $font in DrawText() internal method, meaning to use the generic font. If callbacks want to use DrawText, this avoids them having to reference the internal fonts[] array. 2009-11-01 (lbayuk) * Address bug report 2886365 "Declare all functions and variables in PHP5 style" PHP5 deprecates the use of 'var' to declare a class member variable. All initialized class member variables are now declared 'public'. (It was tempting to make most or all 'protected' or 'private', but that would likely break too much, including the PHPlot Test Suite.) Most class member functions which are meant for internal use only are now declared 'protected', so they cannot be called from scripts (except in child classes). (Note PHP5 does not deprecate the use of just 'function' to mean public, so public functions were not changed.) Internal functions are those documented in the manual under Developer's Guide, Internal Functions. If your code breaks because you are using a method which is now protected, please post the details on the help forum. Some member variables which were set in the constructor are now initialized with the class instead. (No impact.) Removed commented-out, FIXME-noted code for interim labels. 2009-10-12 (lbayuk) * Bug report 2839547, allow SetImageBorderType('none') to reset the image border type. Also checked for other cases where there is no reset; found one that exists (Set[XY]LabelType) but needs to be documented. 2009-07-09 (lbayuk) * Added a hook $plot->locale_override which can be set to True to prevent PHPlot from loading locale settings from the environment with setlocale(LC_ALL, ''). This is necessary for testing PHPlot on Windows, where you cannot force a locale with an environment variable. It might also be needed for people who want PHPlot's locale to differ from the web server's locale. 2009-06-12 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.0.7 ===== 2009-06-11 (lbayuk) * Change PHPlot license to LGPL, per Afan. phplot.php, phplot_data.php - Change license notice. rgb.inc.php - Change top comments and remove bottom marker. COPYING - new file, text of LGPL. LICENSE.* - removed files - old licenses. Makefile - change list of distributed files. * Fix for bug 2803900: SetRGBArray('large') does not work. The include file defined a different array name than the main script expected. (This bug seems to have happened over 8 years ago.) Fixed the array names to match. Also removed the ./ prefix from the included filename so it will be found if on the include path but not in the script directory. Also added error check if the rgb.inc.php include file is needed and not found. 2009-05-25 (lbayuk) * Added new feature to allow partial margin or plot area specification. You can omit, or specify as NULL, any of the 4 arguments to SetMarginsPixels() or SetPlotAreaPixels(), and this means PHPlot should use the automatically calculated margin on that side. Credit to adoll for this feature. 2009-05-17 (lbayuk) * Fix for bug 2791502 "Error plots treat missing Y values as 0": Plots with data type data-data-error now support missing Y values, instead of treating them as 0. This works with lines, points, and linepoints plot types, and also honors SetDrawBrokenLines. * Fix for bug 2792860 "Wrong DataLabelLines with missing Y": Do not draw X Data Label Lines at points with missing Y values. * Fix for bug 2786350 "Missing Y data results in bad auto-range": Rewrote FindDataLimits to ignore missing Y values, rather than treating them as if 0, for calculating range. Bug report and analysis by mrten. * Fix for bug 2786354 "Incorrect auto-range for data-data-error": For data-data-error data type, apply the positive and negative error amounts for each Y point to that point only, rather than applying the largest errors to the overall minimum and maximum Y value for the row. Note: The two fixes above can change existing plots which rely on automatic Y range calculation. The first fix affects plots with missing Y values and min(Y)>0. The second fix can affect plots using data-data-error data type and different error values for different points. In both cases the new Y range can be smaller than before. 2009-01-20 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.0.6 ===== 2009-01-18 (lbayuk) * Fix for bug 1891636 "Misaligned TTF X Labels": PHPlot was using the actual bounding box of each line of text to allocate space and set the text positioning, but was ignoring the fact that the text baseline is not the same as the bottom of the bounding box. This resulted in uneven alignment of the X labels if they had different heights (for example, month names Jul and Aug). PHPlot now calculates the size of text for allocation (SizeText) using the descenders on the last line, and calculates the size for drawing (DrawText) only to the baseline. PHPlot also now uses a fixed line spacing for each line of text in a font, rather than the actual text height. This allows separately drawn multi-line labels to align. * Changes to line spacing when using multi-line labels: PHPlot was using the class variable line_spacing to mean the number of pixels between lines of multi-line labels. This made the spacing too small for larger fonts, and it was not possible to adjust line spacing for different types of text. PHPlot now interprets line_spacing as the number of pixels only for GD text, and as a scale factor for the font's built-in line spacing for TrueType text. In addition, a new optional argument is added to SetFont, SetFontGD, and SetFontTTF to set a line spacing specific to that type of text. * Changes had to be made to the legend drawing code to accommodate the changes to font handling. Note: The line spacing change results in slightly looser spacing on multi-line TrueType text labels, and slightly taller legends, compared to version 5.0.5. 2008-09-21 (lbayuk) * Interim fix for bug 1932571 "Data-Data Plot fails with same X values". PHPlot will no longer hang when the range of X values is 0 (that is, when x_min == x_max). It will arbitrarily set an X range of 1, so the calculated tick step is not 0. This is a temporary fix. Work on a smarter X and Y range calculation is in progress, which will handle edge cases like this better, but it isn't ready and this bug has been open too long. Credit to andyl for finding the bug. * Fix font path: Use DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR constant not '/'. Extended the label formatting capabilities, adding 'printf' and 'custom' types, added a prefix and suffix for 'data' type, and allow format controls to be included in SetXLabelType and SetYLabelType. External changes: * Added 'printf' label type. The caller specifies the print format as the 2nd argument to SetXLabelType or SetYLabelType (default '%e'). $plot->SetXLabelType('printf', '%5.2f'); * Added 'custom' label type. The caller supplies a callback (typically a function name) and optional pass-through argument as the 2nd and 3rd arguments to Set[XY]LabelType. The function is called as $f($value, $arg) to return the formatted $value. $plot->SetXLabelType('custom', 'myfunction', $arg_value); * In addition to Set[XY]TimeFormat, the format string for type 'time' can now be set as the 2nd argument to Set[XY]LabelType. $plot->SetXLabelType('time', '%H:%M'); * In addition to SetPrecision[XY], the precision for type 'data' can now be set as the 2nd argument to Set[XY]LabelType. A 3rd and 4th argument can supply a prefix and suffix for 'data' formatting. (All optional) $plot->SetXLabelType('data', 2, '$', 'US'); Internal changes: * Class variables x_precision, y_precision, x_label_type, y_label_type, x_time_format, and y_time_format have been removed. * New class array variable label_format[], with elements 'x' and 'y' which are arrays for label formatting. Elements in the sub-arrays are not initialized until needed. * New function SetLabelType, which implements Set[XY]LabelType now. * FormatLabel() was rewritten to support the new label formatting. Compatibility: * Any code that directly references class variables related to label formatting will break, except for data_units_text. Use the documented function methods instead. Setting data_units_text as a suffix is deprecated but still works. * The 'data' type precision for 'Y' is still used for pie chart labels. 2008-07-12 (lbayuk) Multiple comment spelling error fixes. No functional changes. 2008-07-06 (lbayuk) Changes to allow mixing GD fixed-font text and TrueType Font (TTF) text on the same plot. (This change came from work done trying to fix TTF text positioning, where it looks like additional information needs to be stored for TrueType fonts. The old font data structure was awkward to extend, and allowing mixed GD/TTF text was on the to-do list anyway.) External changes: * SetFontGD(), SetFontTTF(): New functions to set a font, with type. * SetFont(): Now calls SetFontGD or SetFontTTF depending on $use_ttf. These changes should be fully compatible with existing programs. Internal changes: * Updated comments explaining SetUseTTF() now sets the default type (not the only type) of text used. * Put all the font data into a class array. (Replaces $this->generic_font with $this->fonts['generic'], etc.) * ProcessTextGD() and ProcessTextTTF() now take the font array as one argument, rather than separate arguments for font path and size. 2008-01-13 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.0.5 ===== * phplot.php: Updated version * README.txt: Updated for new release * NEWS.txt: Add text for new release * Makefile: Remove 'Callbacks' from release target, as this material is now in the reference manual. 2008-01-07 (lbayuk) Copyright updated to 2008 and PHP4 no longer listed as supported. Major rewrite of the margin calculation functions to address multiple problems. Fixes for bugs 1856207 "Margin error with 'xaxis'/'yaxis' position, 1843012 "Make margins, drawing consistent", and 945439 "x_tick_label_height not set correctly". Note: These changes are inter-dependent and cannot be split up. * Defer all calculations to DrawGraph time, to eliminate order dependencies. These functions now just store their arguments in the object, and all calculations happen later: + SetXAxisPosition, SetYAxisPosition + SetMarginsPixels + SetPlotAreaPixels (Stores margins, not area, now.) + SetPlotAreaWorld + SetXTickIncrement, SetYTickIncrement * A new callback 'debug_scale' was added to trace the margin and scale calculations. * CalcMargins was rewritten. Actual sizes of tick and data labels are now used, rather than guesses like "use size of biggest Y value". A minimum value (3 x safe_margin, or 15 pixels) applies to each margin. * FindDataLimits no longer needs to find the longest data label, since CalcMargins now does that more precisely. * DrawXTitle and DrawYTitle now use position offsets calculated by CalcMargins. Note: These titles are now offset from the plot area, not the image area. The titles will move if you had set the plot area or margins. * DrawYTick, DrawXTick rewritten to use pre-calculated offsets, and common code moved to new CalcTicks(). * DrawXDataLabel: Use pre-calculated offsets for text. * DrawGraph: Rewrote top section (before drawing anything) to do the calculations in the proper order, unconditionally. * Class variables removed: x_label_inc, y_label_inc, _x_label_cnt : These were never used. title_height, x_title_height, y_title_width : Now internal to CalcMargins. data_limits_done : No more need to remember if FindDataLimits called. * New class variables added: plot_margins_set : Keeps track of user-set plot area or automatic. x_label_top_offset, x_label_bot_offset, x_offset_axis_offset, y_label_left_offset, y_label_right_offset, y_label_axis_offset, x_title_top_offset, x_title_bot_offset, y_title_left_offset, y_title_left_offset : Label offsets * New internal functions: CalcPlotAreaPixels : Deferred calculations taken out of SetPlotAreaPixels and SetMarginsPixels. CalcPlotAreaWorld : Deferred calculations taken out of SetPlotAreaWorld. CalcAxisPositions : Calculate axis positions, moved from CalcTranslation. CalcTicks : Calculate X and Y tick interval. This still uses the same simple method (basically range/10), but now we could drop in a new algorithm much more easily. This is now also used by CalcMargins. Code taken out of DrawXTicks and DrawYTicks. CalcMaxTickLabelSize : So CalcMargins can use the exact tick label sizes. CalcMaxDataLabelSize : So CalcMargins can use the exact data label sizes. DrawXTick : Code split out from DrawXTicks for symmetry with DrawYTick. 2007-12-13 (lbayuk) * Changed ProcessTextTTF() so SizeText() will return integers. It rounds the calculated values up, so the bounding box really contains the text. This also prevents unneeded float calculations in derived values. 2007-12-09 (lbayuk) Major rewrite of the text drawing functions to address multiple problems. Note: These changes are inter-dependent and cannot be split up. * Fixed bug 1813070 "Bad position for multi-line TrueType text": TTF text is now drawn line-by-line, not as a block, for proper alignment and positioning. * Fixed bug 1813071 "Wrong title height for multi-line TTF text": Corrected miscalculation of overall height of multi-line TTF titles. This bug resulted in over-sized margins. The height is now computed line-by-line, including the inter-line spacing. * Fixed bug 1813474 "DrawText alignment arguments wrong": Corrected meaning of 'top' vs 'bottom' alignment. PHPlot now follows the usual conventions: 'top' alignment means top of text to reference. DrawText default for vertical alignment is still 'bottom', but the meaning was corrected. All callers of DrawText were fixed. * Fixed bug 1816844 "Fix order dependency for setting titles": Defer processing titles strings until DrawGraph(), so there is no more order dependency (no need to set font before setting title strings). * Fixed bug 1819668 "Horiz. align multi-line text: GD vs TTF": The new text routines draw TTF text line-by-line and correctly do right-, center-, and left- alignment of each line within a text block. * Fixed bug 1826513 "FIXME in DrawLegend: Max label length": Use actual width of widest legend line to calculate legend box size. * Partial fix for bug 945439 "x_tick_label_height not set correctly": In FindDataLimits(), save the longest data label, not just its length, and use the actual rendered size of that string in CalcMargins() for the margin calculations. Also take into account which of the tick or data labels are visible. This is not a complete fix, but is a significant improvement. The following changes were made related to the above fixes: + Replaced internal function TTFBBoxSize(), which didn't work right, with SizeText(). It returns the orthogonal bounding box of a block of text, and works with both GD and TTF text. + DrawText() and SizeText() call a single function ProcessText(), which is the only place GD text and TTF text are distinguished. (So eventually we will be able to mix GD and TTF text on a plot.) + New internal functions ProcessTextGD() and ProcessTextTTF() draw (or size) GD and TTF text respectively. These are only called by ProcessText(). These are re-implementations which properly position and align text. + Removed class variables title_angle, x_title_angle, and y_title_angle. The titles only work at their fixed angles anyway (0, 0, and 90 respectively). + Line spacing set with SetLineSpacing() now affects TTF text as well as GD text. Previously, it only affected GD text. The default line spacing happens to be usable for TTF text. + Added new callback hook 'debug_textbox' for developing, testing, and documenting. It provides access to the text area bounding box. + Removed unneeded class variables x_tick_label_height, y_tick_label_width, x_tot_margin, y_tot_margin. 2007-11-25 * Improve error handling: Internal functions PrintError() and DrawError() are now the same. Both will draw the error message into the image and output it, and then trigger a user-level error. If no error handler has been set, it will exit, as before. But now the error message should also get logged, or written to the standard error stream, depending on the SAPI in use. You can now establish an error handler to catch most PHPlot errors and do some cleanup before exit. This fix also covers bug #1823774 "Default Font Path and Error Message Output". Fixed the return value of most PHPlot functions, to return False on error, else True. Since uncaught errors are fatal anyway, this only affects code with an error handler that returns, which is not recommended and unsupported at this time. These changes are for possible future error handling options. 2007-11-22 * Fix bug 1836528 "Insufficient checking of parameter values": Rewrote CheckOption to correctly validate option choices. (It previously accepted substrings and other incorrect values.) PHPlot methods that use CheckOption now must be called with valid option values. Empty strings are also no longer accepted. 2007-11-17 (lbayuk) * Change to callbacks to support extra arguments. The PHPlot class can now pass extra arguments to a callback function. Callback functions now take the following form: my_callback($img, $passthru_arg, ...) Where '...' is zero or more additional arguments supplied by PHPlot to the callback. Each implemented callback reason will define any additional arguments it uses. The existing defined callbacks have not changed and do not currently pass any extra arguments. 2007-11-10 (lbayuk) * Fix bug 1827263 "Spoiled up pie-chart if $val is close to zero": Skip pie slices which would result in an integer angle of zero degrees, because the GD arc filling function will draw a complete circle for that case. Credit to Viacheslav for finding this. * Removed 8 of the functions (class methods) marked 'deprecated'. Only deprecated functions which seem to have been for internal use have been removed. Even old scripts shouldn't be using them, and they are becoming a problem to maintain. Removed: SetImageArea() DrawDotSeries() DrawLineSeries() CalcXHeights() CalcYWidths() DrawLabels() InitImage() DrawDashedLine(). 2007-10-20 (lbayuk) ===== Released as 5.0.4 ===== * phplot.php: Updated copyright, version, and authors comments at top. * README.txt: Updated for new release * NEWS.txt: Add text for new release 2007-10-18 (lbayuk) * Add callbacks - experimental feature: New functions SetCallback, GetCallback, RemoveCallback. New internal function DoCallback. Added callback hooks to DrawGraph. Re-arranged code in DrawGraph to bring pie chart drawing into the main switch on plot type, rather than a special case in its own block. This makes it easier to follow and easier to add callback hooks. * Callbacks: New file, documentation for the new callbacks feature. (This won't be in the manual while it is an experimental feature.) 2007-10-15 (lbayuk) * Fix for bug 1813021: Miss-positioned right-justified vertical GD text. Fixed DrawText() to correctly position 90 degree right-justified text drawn in a fixed GD font. This could be seen with 90 degree Y tick labels. (Found by accident while working on TrueType text problems.) Also some code cleanup in DrawText: use elseif where appropriate. 2007-10-09 (lbayuk) * Code cleanup: Simplify SetIndexColor() and SetIndexDarkColor(). There is no need to first try ImageColorExact, then ImageColorResolve if that fails. ImageColorResolve does all that for us. Code cleanup: Rewrite SetRGBColor(). It now detects if an unrecognized color name or color value form is used, and draws an error message. Before this it would get a PHP index error and "headers already sent" condition. * Code cleanup: Remove duplicated code for loading image files. Added new class-private function GetImage() which loads an image based on the image type, and also returns the image size. This replaces duplicated code in tile_img() and SetInputFile(). Also fixed comment at top of SetImageFile which said it was deprecated. It isn't - it is used by the constructor. Moved the function out of the 'deprecated' area up to below where it is used. * Code cleanup: PHPlot should not define or affect anything outside its own class. - Removed the check for __FUNCTION__ (PHP 4.3 and up). This is obsolete. - Do not set error_reporting to E_ALL. Although it is recommended that scripts do this, it is not the place of loaded classes to do it. - Remove unused global constant TOTY. - Removed constants MAXY and MINY. Global constants like this are bad. These were used as magic index values into data[] to hold min and max Y values for the row. Instead, put them in separate arrays which are named data_miny[] and data_maxy[]. (This seems to be only used by the data line drawing function.) Comment cleanup: Remove one commented-out partial function DrawPlotLabel, and fix another commented-out code fragment in DrawYErrorBar. Both of these had unmatched braces in them which caused a balance-braces check to fail. * Code cleanup, array padding: Get rid of functions outside the class and remove the interim fix for PHP 5 (which changed the behavior of array_merge). Rewrote external function array_pad_array() as a new class function pad_array(). It does not need access to the class, but I don't think PHPlot should add to the global namespace more than necessary. The third argument (array to use for padding) was never used, so it was removed. It always pads the array with itself. It now only works on 'usual integer indexed' arrays (0-based sequential integer index). The was previously required but undocumented for some of the arrays (like line_widths); now it is required for all style arrays and will be documented. Now we can pad the array to the required length, not just N times its previous length, and we don't need array_merge. Deleted external function array_merge_php4() as it is no longer used. Deleted PHP end marker ?>. You don't need this and it can cause problems with extra whitespace in your output. 2007-09-24 (lbayuk) * Code cleanup: Fix ternary operator misuse. This doesn't change behavior, but it was annoying me so I fixed it. Replaced all cases of code like this: $a = ($a > $b) ? $b : $a With just: if ($a > $b) $a = $b * Fix Makefile 'release' target to set owner/group when creating the tar file. This avoids having to run it as root, but it needs GNU tar to work. 2007-09-08 (lbayuk) * Fix for bug 1790441: Removed the PHPlot quasi-destructor function and the register_shutdown_function() call which arranged for it to be used. This was preventing release of memory when a PHPlot object was unset, because the registered shutdown function held a reference to it. So rather than improving memory use, it had the opposite effect. Note: It is no longer necessary or recommended to use reference assignment ($plot =& new PHPlot) for PHPlot object creation. Thanks to annajilly for the thorough analysis, bug report, and fix. 2007-09-05 (lbayuk) * Rewrote FormatLabel() to ignore blank label values. Adapted from a patch and feature request submitted by Gerhard Reithofer (exgerhardr). Blank labels used to produce an error if the LabelType was set to 'time', and zero if set to 'data'. Now they are just ignored. This provides a simple way to have labels only at selected intervals when using time or data formats. For example, you can have a date/time label at every 10th data point by setting the labels for the other 9 to be empty strings. Also: Removed $which_pos values 'plotx' and 'ploty'. These were unused by PHPlot and this is an internal-only function so there is no compatibility issue. Removed error checking on $which_pos for the same reason; the error message used an undefined variable anyway so it wouldn't have worked. 2007-08-26 (lbayuk) * Allow SetLegendStyle colorbox_align argument to be 'none', to suppress the colorboxes in the legend. Fix comment on $legend_text_align: empty means right, not left. Rewrote DrawLegend layout code to make it easier to understand. The result should be within 1 or 2 pixels of the previous size and position. * Fixes for bug 1779115: SetLegendWorld() fails on undefined vars Store the given coordinates and remember that they need to be converted from world to pixel coordinates, but defer trying to actually convert them until it is time to draw the legend. This way, there are no problems with the scale having to being set up first (which is nearly impossible to do). Made the following changes: Changed legend class variables to be uninitialized, and unset (rather than empty string) means use the defaults. Added a new variable: $legend_xy_world. If it is set, (legend_x_pos, legend_y_pos) need to be converted to pixel coords. If it is unset, they are already pixel coords (or undefined, meaning defaults). Changed usage of internal function DrawLegend(): removed all arguments. X and Y were always the class variables anyway, and now it needs to also use the new flag to tell it if X and Y are world or pixel coords. The third argument was unused. Removed third, unused, default NULL argument from SetLegendPixels and SetLegendWorld. Changes to DrawLegend to convert x, y coords to pixel coordinates if they came from SetLegendWorld. Also account for new usage of the class variables: Test for unset to mean use default. 2007-08-04 (lbayuk) * New feature: control legend text and color box alignment. Adds a new function SetLegendStyle to adjust the alignment of the text and the color boxes inside the legend. Based on part of bug 1208054, contributed by David Hernández Sanz. 2006-12-02 (lbayuk) * Fixes for bug 1605555: Y Data Labels use wrong font and not formatted. Use y_label_font (not x_label_font) for Y Data Labels. Use the formatted value for the label, not the original text. (This applies to bar charts only, with the new Y data labels.) * One fix for bug 1208054: Localization of number format. If number formatting is enabled with 'data' format type, PHPlot previously used dot for decimal point and comma for thousands separator, and there was no way to change it. This fix adds a new function: SetNumberFormat($decimal_point, $thousands_separator) to set the separators. In addition, if that function is not used, PHPlot will now try to use locale-dependent separators. If locale information is not available, it will fall back to the old defaults of dot and comma. Note: This change may have some negative effects. 1) If your locale is "C" or "Posix", you might not get a thousands separator now by default. You should be using a more specific locale. 2) If your PHP script is forcing a specific locale with setlocale(), PHPlot will probably undo that because it uses setlocale(LC_ALL, '') to import locale information from the environment. We have to do that, or a locale set through the environment is ignored. But it will override a manually set locale. * Fix for bug 937944: X/Y Tick Counts PHPlot could draw one too few Y tick marks, and one too many X tick marks. Changed the code to stop drawing X (Y) tick marks when the current X (Y) value exceeds the maximum X (Y) value plus a small fudge factor. The fudge factor accounts for cumulative error when repeatedly adding a delta to the X (Y) value. Notes: The bug report was writing about Y tick counts only, but X tick counts can also be wrong. The proposed fix in the bug report does not work in all cases. This fix changes the appearance of many plots which were missing the top-most Y tick mark. The extra X-tick mark problem is less common. ===== Released as 5.0rc3 ===== 2006-11-13 (lbayuk) * Fix for bug 1437912: x-axis label misalignment [bar charts] The calculations were redone from scratch. New control variable 'bar_extra_space', which works in addition to 'group_frac_width' to control how much extra space is around the bars. Made bar widths match for 'stackedbars' and 1-bar-per-group 'bars'. NOTE: This changes the appearance of charts. bars in 'stackedbars' will now be thinner, and bars in 'bars' graphs will be thicker. I saw no reason for them being different before. This fix required fixing the positioning on the new bar data labels, which was off before. The bar data labels will now be centered. Additional fixes to bar chart data labels: For negative values, the label will center under the bar. Fixed X-adjustment to account for shading. Fixed to not suppress the data label if the value is 0. 2006-11-10 (lbayuk) * Fix for bug 1594457: DrawError text wrap and background fix Do error image white background correctly, and word-wrap the text. * Fix for bug 1594458: Suppress lines or points in 'linepoints' Don't draw X data labels twice for 'linepoints'. Allow SetPointShapes value 'none' to suppress points, and allow SetLineStyles value 'none' to suppress lines. This allows a 'linepoints' graph to mix lines only, points only, and both on the same graph. 2006-11-09 (lbayuk) * Fixes for bug 1446523: + Wrong variable name in deprecated SetAxisFontSize() + Fails to properly handle error if SetDataValues() was never called, or not called with a data array. * Fix for bug 1117122: Pie Chart ignores SetPlotAreaPixels Don't let DrawGraph recalculate the plot area for pie charts if the user already set it with SetPlotAreaPixels. NOTE: This fix may slightly change the appearance of some pie charts, whether or not they use SetPlotAreaPixels. * Fix for bug 1103992: Wrong max Y calculated for stackedbars Changes FindDataLimits to calculate max Y correctly. It was counting the first Y value in each record twice, which is always wrong but only affected stackedbars because the Y values are summed. * Fix for bug 1096199: Wrong error bar colors in DrawDotsError. Rewrites DrawDotsError to make it work like DrawLinesError to correctly increment the record and color indexes. Also fixes uninitialized x_now_pixels. * Fix for bug 1096197: No borders on unshaded Draw[Stacked]Bars Unshaded Bars and StackedBars covered the border with the rectangle. The fix is to draw the rectangle, then the border. NOTE: This fix changes chart appearance. Bars and Stacked Bars will now get a black border around each bar by default, if you turn off the 3D-shading. If you want borderless, unshaded bars you need to use SetDataBorderColors to set the data border colors to be the same as the data colors. * Fix for bug 1333164: Negative data values, if string variables, result in unfilled bars. The problem was a string-to-string compare of a negative number with the empty string x_axis_position. Fixed by initializing x_axis_y_pixels to 0 if SetXAxisPosition was not used. 2005-04-17 (afan) * Fix for bug [ 1161072 ] SetInputFile warning, background overwrite * Bug 1182672 fixed 2005-04-15 (afan) * fix for bug: [ 1182666 ] Y Auto-scale rounds in wrong direction * Fix for bugs 1144644 TrueType font path problems and 1106328 TTF path/filename inconsistency * Fix Bug: [ 1117120 ] X Title sizing uses Y Title font height 2005-04-13 (afan) * Error in SetLineStyles() - does not accept an array argument 2005-03-29 (afan) * Small typo fixed in SetYDataLabelPos * Update SetDataLabelPos: For past compatibility we accept plotleft, ...but pass it to SetTickLabelPos 2005-03-26 (afan) * Change to line 3802: data lables now work with multiple bars with *$idx 2005-03-25 (afan) * Added Function DrawDataLabels to put data labels in world coords, added call from DrawBars and modified SetYDataLabelPos to flag whether or not to call DrawDataLabels. 2005-01-20 (migueldb) * Many bugfixes reported and solved by L.
