SolidBackground (Chart FX for Java 8.0 API Specification)

java.lang.Object
- com.softwarefx.chartfx.server.adornments.SolidBackground

All Implemented Interfaces:: IBackgroundAdornment

public class SolidBackground
extends java.lang.Object
implements IBackgroundAdornment

The SolidBackground object allows changing the color to the chart's background, using a solid color.

The Color can be changed for either the Chart's background area, or the Chart's plot area, by using the setBackColor and setPlotAreaColor methods.

The following image shows an Azure BackColor:
