I have a time series chart where domain range is auto-fixed, and due to this only part of large data-set is visible in the chart at a time. I have enabled only domain panning.

I am looking for a functionality such that when user pan in either direction, i.e. left or right, the range axis min/max values should adjust automatically as per the data visible in chart (and not as per complete data-set). Does JFreeChart-1.0.19 provide any such functionality out of the box?

On the other hand, I know that when dynamic data is added in time series (with fixed domain axis range), then setAutoAdjust on range axis will automatically adjust the min/max as per data visible on chart.

Please find below the sample code: TimeSeriesDemo.java

public class TimeSeriesDemo extends ApplicationFrame {
    public TimeSeriesDemo1(String title) {
        super(title);
        JPanel chartPanel = createDemoPanel();
        chartPanel.setPreferredSize(new java.awt.Dimension(500, 270));
        setContentPane(chartPanel);
    }

    private static JFreeChart createChart(XYDataset dataset) {
        JFreeChart chart = ChartFactory.createTimeSeriesChart(
            "Nifty 50 Close",  // title
            "Date",             // x-axis label
            "Value",   // y-axis label
            dataset,            // data
            true,               // create legend?
            true,               // generate tooltips?
            false               // generate URLs?
        );

        XYPlot plot = (XYPlot) chart.getPlot();
        plot.setDomainPannable(true);
        plot.setRangePannable(false);

        XYItemRenderer r = plot.getRenderer();
        if (r instanceof XYLineAndShapeRenderer) {
            XYLineAndShapeRenderer renderer = (XYLineAndShapeRenderer) r;
            renderer.setBaseShapesVisible(false);
        }

        DateAxis axis = (DateAxis) plot.getDomainAxis();
        axis.setDateFormatOverride(new SimpleDateFormat("dd-MMM-yyyy"));
        axis.setFixedAutoRange(6.0 * 24 * 60 * 60 * 1000);

        return chart;
    }

    private static XYDataset createDataset() {
        TimeSeries s1 = new TimeSeries("Nifty 50");
        s1.add(new Day(11,1,2017),8380.65);

        TimeSeriesCollection dataset = new TimeSeriesCollection();

        return dataset;

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        TimeSeriesDemo1 demo = new TimeSeriesDemo1("Time Series Demo 1");
        demo.pack();
        RefineryUtilities.centerFrameOnScreen(demo);
        demo.setVisible(true);
    }

    Maybe `SlidingXYDataset`, cited [here](http://stackoverflow.com/a/5381430/230513). – trashgod Feb 09 '17 at 08:48
  • Thank you @trashgod for sharing sliding dataset idea.I haven't explored the jFreeChart source code for panning, but do you think that by tweaking it somehow I can manage to set auto range on range-axis (y-axis). Any pointers will be helpful. – Nimish Jain Feb 09 '17 at 11:11
  • As I recall, the patch included an example that may help guide you. – trashgod Feb 09 '17 at 16:28
  • how to pan this demo? – Line Jan 16 '19 at 15:00
