paddingLeftRight

Generates a pixel-measured empty space between the left/right side of a constant line and the constant line label.

Type:

Number

Default Value: 10

This property depends on the label.horizontalAlignment in the following way.

  • horizontalAlignment is "left" → padding applies to the left side of a constant line;
  • horizontalAlignment is "right" → padding applies to the right side of a constant line;
  • horizontalAlignment is "center" → padding is calculated automatically.
