Class PeriodGraphUI

java.lang.Object
  org.mov.chart.graph.PeriodGraphUI

All Implemented Interfaces:

GraphUI

public class PeriodGraphUI
extends java.lang.Object
implements GraphUI

A generic graph user interface that queries the user for a period. Since many of the graphs have only a single setting, the period, it makes sense for them to share a user interface.
