Hi Michael,

There are a couple of ways you could change the font size. The current one is being dynamically generated based on the width of the tree.

If you prefer to fix the font to a specific size and you are using the Axiis theme you can adjust the following line in the src/theme/weightedtree.js file.

Near the top you will see a line that starts with “var skins = …” locate the Axiis skin (the first one, and near the bottom of that skin definition around line number 40 you would have to change this line (for a 10px high font)

font_size: function () { return fontSize + "px"; }

to

font_size: function () { return "10px" ; }

Also be sure that you are referencing the source files versus the minified files at the top as described in our “Getting Started” article. This will ensure that your HTML page is using the source files you have just modified (versus the compiled minified files that won’t have these changes in them.)

I hope that helps point you in the right direction.

Kind Regards,

Tom

Tom warns us:

My question is How do I reference that source file? Do I change this line in the HTML file?

<!– D3.js … of course! –>
<script src=”lib/d3.min.js”></script>

I’m trying to leave less white space, particularly on the right hand side of the plot. Do I do it in the same part of the .js file?

TIA

Hello Patrick,

For the white space you can adjust the margin of the chart by passing in a margin object like this:

viz.margin({top:10, left:10, bottom:10, right:0})

Or what ever values you want to use for each margin.

For the file references simply uncomment these files listed below and comment out the two references to these two files:

Comment Out:
```
<script src=”lib/vizuly_core.min.js”>
<script src=”lib/vizuly_radialprogress.min.js”>
```
Uncomment These:
```
 <script src="../src/namespace/namespace.js">
 <script src="../src/theme/_theme.js">
 <script src="../src/theme/radialprogress.js">
 <script src="../src/core/component.js">
 <script src="../src/core/util.js">
 <script src="../src/core/color.js">
 <script src="../src/core/format.js">
 <script src="../src/svg/_svg.js">
 <script src="../src/svg/gradient.js">
 <script src="../src/svg/filter.js">
 <script src="../src/component/_viz.js">
 <script src="../src/component/radialprogress.js">
```
Cheers,

Tom

Thank you Tom. That was very helpful. You said:

```

```
Or what ever values you want to use for each margin.
I couldn’t tell where I should do that, but I achieved what I wanted by editing

src/viz/weightedtree.js

Beginning about line 75, there’s a section for editing margins between tree and the borders of the container. Is that good practice?

Related to my question, I’d like to increase the x dimension of the branches, but I can’t find where to do so. I increased the number of characters of branch labels from 20 to 30 successfully, and now I want to spread them more in the horizontal direction, now that I have unused space.

Your help is much appreciated.

Hello Patrick,

As far as the margin goes, you shouldn’t have to adjust the code in the weightedtree.js file. You simply pass in that margin object from the test container where you are setting the size, height, data etc of the tree. You would set it in the weightedtree_test.js file, from outside the component. But what you did would work as well.

In regards to the horizontal spacing you can actually specify in pixels the separation width you want by calling the
viz.fixedSpan(200)
or something like that. This would set the space between branch levels to 200 pixels. You do this as well from the test container and you shouldn’t have to modify the component.

I hope that helps.

Cheers,

Tom

Thanks, Tom. That’s exactly what I needed.
