<code class="function">SetXTimeFormat</code> sets the formatting string for X tick
|
|
|
4 |
and data labels when 'time' formatting mode for X labels is in effect.
|
|
|
5 |
Use <a class="xref" href="SetXLabelType.html" title="SetXLabelType"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXLabelType</span></a> to select the formatting mode for labels.
|
|
|
6 |
The formatting string is used with the PHP <code class="function">strftime</code>
|
|
|
7 |
to format labels as date/time strings.

This function is retained for compatibility, but use of
|
|
|
10 |
<a class="xref" href="SetXLabelType.html" title="SetXLabelType"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXLabelType</span></a> is preferred.

Formatting string for X labels, used with <code class="function">strftime()</code>.
|
|
|
13 |
For example, if the label value is 1104534000 (which is the
|
|
|
14 |
<code class="literal">time_t</code> representation of 6:00 PM on the last day of 2004),
|
|
|
15 |
'%Y-%m-%d.%H:%M:%S' results in '2004-12-31.18:00:00',
|
|
|
16 |
and '%d %b %Y' results in '31 Dec 2004'.

This applies to X tick labels, and also to X data labels unless overridden
|
|
|
19 |
by <a class="xref" href="SetXDataLabelType.html" title="SetXDataLabelType"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXDataLabelType</span></a>.
|
|
|
20 |
</p><p>
|
|
|
21 |
To use date/time formatting, the label values must be Unix time_t
|
|
|
22 |
values (number of seconds since Unix epoch).
|
|
|
23 |
</p><p>
|
|
|
24 |
Unlike <a class="xref" href="SetPrecisionX.html" title="SetPrecisionX"><span class="refentrytitle">SetPrecisionX</span></a>, SetXTimeFormat does not
|
|
|
25 |
automatically enable the correct label formatting mode. You
|
|
|
26 |
must call <code class="literal">SetXLabelType('time')</code> to use date/time
|
|
|
27 |
formatting of labels.
|
|
|
28 |
</p><p>
|
|
|
29 |
The default time format is '%H:%M:%S', showing hours, minutes, and seconds
|
|
|
30 |
(and ignoring any date information).

|
|

</p></div><div class="refsect1"><a id="idp1379093300"></a><h2>History</h2><p>
|
|
|
32 |
Starting with PHPlot-5.0.6, the time format can be set with
|
|
|
33 |
<a class="xref" href="SetXLabelType.html" title="SetXLabelType"><span class="refentrytitle">SetXLabelType</span></a> instead.
|
|
|
34 |
</p><p>
|
|
|
35 |
The default time format was undefined prior to PHPlot-5.0rc3.
