FlexAxisRenderer Class

Description

Describe the horizontal and vertical axes of a chart. An axis is responsible for rendering the labels, tick marks, and title along its length.

AxisRenderer objects inherit some of their visual properties from the enclosing chart object. The text format of the labels and title defaults to the CSS text properties of the renderer. You can control the formatting of the axis title separately by specifying a axisTitleStyleName, either on the AxisRenderer or on the enclosing chart.

Properties

Name Description
alpha the alpha transparency value of the object specified. (Inherited from FlexDisplayObject)
automationClassName a string containing the automation class name for the element. (Inherited from FlexObject)
automationIndex a string containing the automation index for the element. (Inherited from FlexObject)
automationName the name that can be used as an identifier for this object. (Inherited from FlexObject)
canDropLabels whether the AxisRenderer should drop labels as necessary to lay out correctly.
canStagger whether to stagger labels on two label rows. Use this setting to minimize the space required for the labels. The default value is true, which staggers the labels.
className the name of this instance's class, such as Button. (Inherited from FlexObject)
columnNames a list containing the names of all columns in the data.
currentState the current view state of the component. (Inherited from FlexObject)
enabled whether the component can accept user interaction. (Inherited from FlexObject)
errorColor the color of the component highlight when validation fails. (Inherited from FlexObject)
errorString the text that will be displayed by a component's error tip when a component is monitored and validation fails. (Inherited from FlexObject)
firstVisibleRow the index of the first visible child.
focusEnabled whether the component can receive focus when tabbed to. (Inherited from FlexObject)
height the height of the display object, in pixels. (Inherited from FlexDisplayObject)
heightLimit the maximum amount of space, in pixels, that an axis renderer will take from a chart.
id the ID of the component. (Inherited from FlexObject)
labelGap the gap between the end of the tick marks and the top of the labels, in pixels. The default value is 3.
labelRotation the label rotation.
lastVisibleRow the index of the last visible child.
length the length of the axis, in screen coordinates.
minorTickLength the length of the minor tick marks on the axis, in pixels. The default value is 0.
minorTickPlacement a value where to draw the minor tick marks. Values include: inside, outside, cross, and none.
minorTicks an array that specifies where Flex draws the minor tick marks along the axis. Each array element contains a value between 0 and 1.
mouseEnabled whether this object receives mouse messages. The default value is true, which means that by default any InteractiveObject instance that is on the display list receives mouse events. If mouseEnabled is set to false, the instance does not receive any mouse events. Any children of this instance on the display list are not affected. To change the mouseEnabled behavior for all children of an object on the display list, use flash.display.DisplayObjectContainer.mouseChildren. (Inherited from FlexDisplayObject)
numAutomationChildren the number of automation children this container has. (Inherited from FlexObject)
numColumns the total number of columns in the data available.
numRows the total number of rows of data available.
percentHeight the number that specifies the height of a component as a percentage of its parent's size. (Inherited from FlexObject)
percentWidth the number that specifies the width of a component as a percentage of its parent's size. Allowed values are 0-100. The default value is NaN. Setting the width or explicitWidth properties resets this property to NaN. (Inherited from FlexObject)
placement the side of the chart that the axisRenderer appears on.
scaleX the number that specifies the horizontal scaling factor. (Inherited from FlexObject)
scaleY the number that specifies the vertical scaling factor. (Inherited from FlexObject)
showLabels whether labels appear along the axis. The default value is true.
showLine whether to display the axis. The default value is true.

tickLength the length of the tick marks on the axis, in pixels. The default value is 3.
tickPlacement a value where to draw the tick marks. Values include: inside, outside, cross, and none.
ticks an array that specifies where Flex draws the tick marks along the axis. Each array element contains a value between 0 and 1.
toolTip the text to display in the ToolTip. The default value is null (Nothing in Visual Basic). (Inherited from FlexObject)
useHandCursor whether the pointing hand cursor appears when the mouse rolls over an element. The default value is true. If useHandCursor is false, the arrow pointer is used instead. (Inherited from FlexObject)
Value The value of the control, e.g.: text in a text control. (Inherited from TestObject)
visible whether the display object is visible. (Inherited from FlexDisplayObject)
width the width of the display object, in pixels. (Inherited from FlexDisplayObject)
x the x coordinate of the DisplayObject instance relative to the local coordinates of the parent DisplayObjectContainer. (Inherited from FlexDisplayObject)
y the y coordinate of the DisplayObject instance relative to the local coordinates of the parent DisplayObjectContainer. (Inherited from FlexDisplayObject)

Methods

Name Description
CaptureBitmap Saves a bitmap image of this object to a file. If you do not specify an absolute file name, the bitmap is saved to the default bitmap location on the machine that runs the Agent, which is %LOCALAPPDATA%/Silk/SilkTest/capturedBitmaps. The captured bitmap's pixels are stored in 32bit RGB order; when parsing the image the 4th byte (alpha channel) of every pixel must be ignored as it is used only for padding. In .NET, the constant System.Drawing.Imaging.PixelFormat.Format32bppRgb can be used for this purpose. (Inherited from TestObject)
ChangeFocus Changes the current focus. (Inherited from FlexObject)
Click Clicks on the object. (Inherited from IClickable)
DoubleClick Double-clicks a mouse button on the object. (Inherited from IClickable)
Exists Checks if any child object matching the locator exists for an object in the application under test. If the timeout parameter is passed the agent retries finding until the given timeout expires. If no timeout is specified and no object is found initially false is returned immediately. (Inherited from TestObject)
Exists Checks if an object exists in the application under test. (Inherited from TestObject)
Find Finds an object specified by an XPath locator. (Inherited from TestObject)

Verify Executes a verification on the given asset in the context of this UI object. (Inherited from TestObject)
WaitForChildDisappearance Waits until the specified child object does not exist or until the timeout is reached. If you don't explicitly pass a timeout using the optional timeout parameter, the timeout specified by the option OPT_WAIT_RESOLVE_OBJDEF will be used. An exception is thrown if the timeout is reached. (Inherited from TestObject)
WaitForDisappearance Waits until the object does not exist or until the timeout is reached. If you don't explicitly pass a timeout using the optional timeout parameter, the timeout specified by the option OPT_WAIT_RESOLVE_OBJDEF will be used. An exception is thrown if the timeout is reached. (Inherited from TestObject)
WaitForObject Waits for an object that matches the specified locator. If no object matches within an timeout an ObjectNotFoundException is thrown. The default timeout is 5 seconds and you can change the timeout by setting the value of the option OPT_WAIT_RESOLVE_OBJDEF. Use WaitForObject if the AUT takes a long time to display a specific object, for example when a transaction is processed before showing any results. By default, an action in the UI does not require a WaitForObject, because of the built-in synchronization. If you receive random timeout errors during normal script execution, consider increasing the default timeout instead of adding WaitForObject statements to your scripts. (Inherited from TestObject)
WaitForProperty Waits until the specified property has the specified value or until the timeout is reached.If you don't explicitly pass a timeout using the optional timeout parameter, the timeout specified by the option OPT_WAIT_RESOLVE_OBJDEF will be used. An exception is thrown if the timeout is reached. (Inherited from TestObject)
WaitForPropertyNotEquals Waits until the specified property has a value that is different to the specified value or until the timeout is reached.If you don't explicitly pass a timeout using the optional timeout parameter, the timeout specified by the option OPT_WAIT_RESOLVE_OBJDEF will be used. An exception is thrown if the timeout is reached. (Inherited from TestObject)
WaitForScreenshotStable Waits until the control is visually stable and does not change its position, by comparing screenshots taken with the specified interval. If you don't explicitly pass a timeout using the optional timeout parameter, the timeout specified by the option OPT_WAIT_SCREENSHOT_STABLE will be used. The default interval is 200 milliseconds. An exception is thrown if the timeout is reached. (Inherited from TestObject)
