The 'chartArea' option.

Hi jinji, thanks.  At the risk of being pedantic, I don't believe the left justified
with a right margin is available in chartArea.  Check out these two charts on my site:

bar chart with chart area settings of: chartArea': {width: '80%', height: '80%', left:
250}

line chart with chartArea settings of:  chartArea': {width: '80%', height: '80%', right:
250}
http://www.karmadata.com/View/Chart?viewid=2C48A203ED9940A09EA8FF6252A0365F

what is the syntax in chartArea to get a left justified (not centered...the 80% just
centers the chart in the containing div btw) with a right margin (to hold the legend,
allow the legend text to be at least 250 pixels long).

Also, auto left and right margins for the chart container that grow and shrink based
on the axis labels and/or legend text, would be great.

thanks!

i was being pedantic (sort of).  the chartArea option for a left justified (not centered)
is:

chartArea': {width: '70%', height: '80%', left: 80}

you need a left property in order for the chart to left justify.  However, I am still
confused on how to right justify a chart within the container.... also confused on
how to auto-margin based on length of axis or legend texts to the left or right of
c hart...

I can't see your charts as I need to login (and I don't want to), so I'll try to answer
hoping that I understand you.

In general, the chart occupies the entire div you give it. That area is divided into
the central main "charArea", and the margins (to accommodate the legend and such).
The "chartArea" option controls this part.

Regrading your last sentence, that's a feature that's not yet supported, sorry (not
that I argue about its usefulness).

More things you can try:
chartArea: {width: '70%', left: 0} (left)
chartArea: {width: '70%', left: '30%'} (right)

:-) I'm going to have to work to gain your trust.

i'll try the left: '30%' trick.
