SVGGraph options: legend_type

« Return to previous page

Option name:

legend_type

Default value:

"all"

Added in version:

2.22

Data type:

string [?]

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 or FALSE value, or any values that convert easily such as 1, "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 or float 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 or 1.63e5 or M_PI.

string

Single or double quoted strings. Remember to double-quote your strings if you are inserting a line break:
"Line 1\nLine 2".

Per-dataset:

no

global legend

Which data should have legend entries.

This option is used internally by each of the graph types to specify which entries to display, though you can override it. The available values are:

• all

  This value is used by single-dataset graphs to display a legend entry for each item of data.

• dataset

  This value is used by multi-dataset graphs to display a single legend entry for each dataset.

• none

  This value is not used by any of the graph types - it disables displaying entries from legend_entries, so all entries must come from structured data.
