Introduce a plugin system and move the legend to it.

[dygraphs.git] / plugins / legend.js

Dygraph.Plugins.Legend = (function() {

/*

Current bits of jankiness:
- Uses two private APIs:
    1. Dygraph.optionsViewForAxis_
    2. dygraph.plotter_.area
- Registers for a "predraw" event, which should be renamed.
- I call calculateEmWidthInDiv more often than needed.
- Why can't I call "this.deselect(e)" instead of "legend.deselect.call(this, e)"?
