CDAreaLayerMBS.setGapColor(fillColor as color)

Type	Topic	Plugin	Version	macOS	Windows	Linux	iOS	Targets
method	ChartDirector	MBS ChartDirector Plugin	11.1	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	All

Same as the other setGapColor method, but uses color instead of integer data type for passing color values.

CDAreaLayerMBS.setGapColor(fillColor as Integer)

Type	Topic	Plugin	Version	macOS	Windows	Linux	iOS	Targets
method	ChartDirector	MBS ChartDirector Plugin	8.2	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	All

Sets the color used to fill the area under kNoValue data points.

By default, if there are kNoValue data points, ChartDirector will interpolate using the remaining data points. The area will remain continuous.

This method can be used to set up an alternative color to represent the area at kNoValue data point positions. In particular, if the fillColor argument is set to Transparent, the kNoValue data points will result in gaps in the area.

Parameter	Default	Description
fillColor	(Mandatory)	The color used to fill the area region at kNoValue data point positions.

CDAreaLayerMBS.setMinLabelSize(s as Integer)

Type	Topic	Plugin	Version	macOS	Windows	Linux	iOS	Targets
method	ChartDirector	MBS ChartDirector Plugin	8.2	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	✅ Yes	All

Sets the minimum height (or width if x and y axes are swapped) of an area below which data labels will be hidden.

In ChartDirector, for an area layer, data labels (Layer.setDataLabelStyle) are drawn internal to the area, while the aggregate labels (Layer.setAggregateLabelStyle) are drawn external to the area.

ChartDirector will disable data labels if the area height (or width if x and y axes are swapped) is too small to contain the data label.

By default, ChartDirector will automatically determine what is meant by "too small". The setMinLabelSize method can be used to manually defined the threshold for "too small".

Sometimes it may be desirable to display the data label even though it cannot be contained within the area. In this case, the setMinLabelSize can be used to set the threshold to 0.

Parameter	Default	Description
s	(Mandatory)	The minimum height (or width if x and y axes are swapped) of an area below which data labels will be hidden.
