change Legend name in Cartesian chart

[GauravCreed]

Hi @chidori

How can i change series name in legend and as well as in tooltip.
for legend enable i usecartesian.legend().align(Align.CENTER).enabled(true);

is there any solution for this then help me.
Thanks(_).

@GauravCreed
To achieve that apply a series name using name() method of the series.
For details, check the snippet below:

        AnyChartView anyChartView = findViewById(R.id.any_chart_view);
        Cartesian chart = AnyChart.line();

        List<DataEntry> data = new ArrayList<>();
        data.add(new ValueDataEntry("John", 10.345234525));
        data.add(new ValueDataEntry("Jake", 12.13451345));
        data.add(new ValueDataEntry("Peter", 18.4567465));
        data.add(new ValueDataEntry("Mike", 14.23457234));

        Column series = chart.column(data);

        // apply series name
        series.name("Sales");
        chart.legend().align(Align.CENTER).enabled(true);

        anyChartView.setChart(chart);

Below is the result:

Hi @chidori

Thanks for quick answer.

As per your answer it is possible, but on bar chart only one data display, see my image i want the multiple data on single bar chart column. is it possible ? got my point?

Thanks(_)

@GauravCreed
Yes, absolutely the same approach is available for multiple series.
To be precise, can you provide the chart configuration code? I will modify it to show how it works with multiple series.

Hi @chidori

private void setupChartData() {
    Cartesian cartesian = AnyChart.cartesian();
    cartesian.animation(true);
    cartesian.title("All Devotion Progress");
    cartesian.yScale().stackMode(ScaleStackMode.VALUE);

    Linear scalesLinear = Linear.instantiate();
    scalesLinear.minimum(0d);
    scalesLinear.maximum(100d);
    scalesLinear.ticks("{ interval: 10 }");

    com.anychart.core.axes.Linear extraYAxis = cartesian.yAxis(1d);
    extraYAxis.orientation(Orientation.LEFT).scale(scalesLinear);
    extraYAxis.labels().padding(0d, 0d, 0d, 5d).format("{%Value}");

    cartesian.xAxis(0).orientation(Orientation.BOTTOM);

    List<DataEntry> data = new ArrayList<>();
    data.add(new CustomDataEntry("Sunday", 0, 2040, 1200, 1600));
    data.add(new CustomDataEntry("Monday", 0, 1794, 1124, 1724));
    data.add(new CustomDataEntry("Tuesday", 0, 2026, 1006, 1806));
    data.add(new CustomDataEntry("Wednesday", 0, 2341, 921, 1621));
    data.add(new CustomDataEntry("Thursday", 0, 1800, 1500, 1700));
    data.add(new CustomDataEntry("Friday", 0, 1507, 1007, 1907));
    data.add(new CustomDataEntry("Saturday", 0, 2701, 921, 1821));*/

    Set set = Set.instantiate();
    set.data(data);

    cartesian.legend().align(Align.CENTER).enabled(true);

    Mapping lineData = set.mapAs("{ x: 'x', value: 'value' }");
    Mapping column1Data = set.mapAs("{ x: 'x', value: 'value2' }");
    Mapping column2Data = set.mapAs("{ x: 'x', value: 'value3' }");
    Mapping column3Data = set.mapAs("{ x: 'x', value: 'value4' }");

    Line line = cartesian.line(lineData);
    line.yScale(scalesLinear);

    cartesian.column(column1Data);
    cartesian.column(column2Data);
    cartesian.column(column3Data);

    cartesian.crosshair(false);
    cartesian.tooltip().positionMode(TooltipPositionMode.POINT);

    /*Marker series1 = cartesian.marker(column1Data);
    series1.name(getResources().getString(R.string.menuDevotion)).enabled(false);

    Marker series2 = cartesian.marker(column2Data);
    series2.name(getResources().getString(R.string.menu_word_devotion)).enabled(false);

    Marker series3 = cartesian.marker(column2Data);
    series3.name(getResources().getString(R.string.menu_morning_evening_devotion)).enabled(false);*/

    anyChartView.setChart(cartesian);
}

see that line

data.add(new CustomDataEntry("Sunday", 0, 2040, 1200, 1600));
i added second argument as 0 b'coz i don't want line in chart

@GauravCreed
In your snippet you create three column series like this:

    cartesian.column(column1Data);
    cartesian.column(column2Data);
    cartesian.column(column3Data);

To apply series names modify the code like this:

    cartesian.column(column1Data).name("My name 1");
    cartesian.column(column2Data).name("My name 2");
    cartesian.column(column3Data).name("My name 3");
