jfree chart bar chart add $ to range value

Question

I implemented a code to represent a bar chart (as of picture). Now my problem is that I want to add $ sign to the values to represent the currencies. So that the values would be:

$0 ---- $500,000 ----- $1,000,000

Any idea?

Answer 1

As shown here, you can use NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance():

NumberFormat currency = NumberFormat.getCurrencyInstance();
NumberAxis domainAxis = (NumberAxis) plot.getDomainAxis();
domainAxis.setNumberFormatOverride(currency);

Answer 2

Thanks. Exactly that's what I found as well

final CategoryPlot plot = chart.getCategoryPlot();
NmberAxis rangeAxis = (NumberAxis) plot.getRangeAxis();
DecimalFormat format = new DecimalFormat("$##,###,###,###");
rangeAxis.setNumberFormatOverride(format);
