I have a Swing application which uses JFreeChart to display one of a series of queries. Some of these queries have a composite TimeSeries key. Each component of this key can contain a few values, but when rendered makes a very noisy graph. I would like a simple way for the users to hide/show some of the TimeSeries in the displayed Chart component.

It looks like the setSeriesVisible method of AbstractRenderer is what you're looking for. Although this forum discussion suggests that it may only work in the latest release but there's a work around for earlier releases.

The setSeriesVisible method was not one hundred percent of my answer, but you came close. I also needed to query the displayed chart to find out which series contained the key or key components I needed to hide.

I'm not quite sure what you mean, but if you want to keep item shapes apart, have a look at the AnalysisXYItemRenderer class (or corresponding). There's a transXDiff there that can be used for such calculations (such as accumulating the diff and only show plot shapes when that accumulated value reaches a limit).
It was a couple of years ago I did this, so things might have changed in JFreeChart since then.
