SVGGraph options: aspect_ratio
- Option name:
aspect_ratio
- Default value:
1.0
- Added in version:
- 1.1
- Data type:
- number [?]
The datatypes used in this documentation for specifying SVGGraph options are described below. All options can be a literal value of the data type described, a variable containing the data type, or an expression that will produce the data type when evaluated (and they must always be valid PHP expressions).
- array
- An
array
, the number and data types of its members will depend on the option for which is it used. - boolean
- A boolean
TRUE
orFALSE
value, or any values that convert easily such as1
,"1"
,0
and""
. - callback
- A callable function, which can be either the name of a function or an anonymous function itself.
- colour
- Any of the colour values supported by SVG inside a single or double
quoted string. These include three and six digit hex codes, RGB and
RGBA colours, and colour names. SVG uses
"none"
for no colour, which generally leaves things transparent. - fill
- A colour value or one of the gradients and patterns supported by SVGGraph. See the SVGGraph colours page for details.
- integer
- A negative or positive whole number or
0
. - measurement
- An
integer
orfloat
value, or a string containing a number followed by one of these CSS units:px
,in
,cm
,mm
,pt
,pc
. - number
- Any number supported by PHP, for example
1
or-3.2
or1.63e5
orM_PI
. - string
- Single or double quoted strings. Remember to double-quote your strings
if you are inserting a line break:
"Line 1\nLine 2"
.

- no

- pad_left pad_top pad_right pad_bottom
Ratio of pie graph height to width.
This option specifies the shape of the pie graph. The size of the graph is wholly
determined by the size of the SVG document and the amount of padding around the
edges. The default value 1.0
means the width and height will have an equal
size and the pie will be circular. Values greater than 1 make the height
greater than the width and values between 0 and 1 make the width greater than
the height.
The option also supports the string value "auto"
to make the pie graph fit
into the whole area it has available in both directions.
Example:
$settings['aspect_ratio'] = 0.5;
The aspect ratio of 0.5
means the the height of the graph will be half its
width. A value of 2.0
would reverse the shape so that the height would be
twice the width. You can express the value as a fraction if you prefer, with the
height over the width:
$settings['aspect_ratio'] = 2/3;
PHP will convert the expression into the floating-point value for 2/3, and the height of the resulting pie graph will be two-thirds of its width.
