I have one dataset with multiple labels in my bar chart. When bar chart has more labels, width of label shrink for each.
I want to set fixed width for every window in my chart. For example dark stick for every label should be same fixed width size no matter how many window exists.
Thank in advance.
Is it a request to have the vertical axis have a fixed width?
There is a way to do this:
options: {
scales: {
yAxes: [{
afterFit: function(scaleInstance) {
scaleInstance.width = 100; // sets the width to 100px
}
}]
}
}

In vis.js, it seems that if you display your data in groups without stacking, then the last group is taller than the others by 5px. There doesn't seem to be an obvious way to change this: it isn't a question of styling the items, since it's the row itself that's taller for some reason. How would I make all rows the same height?
Example: https://jsfiddle.net/6czo14pg/
This is due to the margin on the timeline axis. It can be adjusted with the margin axis option described at https://visjs.github.io/vis-timeline/docs/timeline/#Configuration_Options.
Setting it to 5 in your example makes all the rows the same height.
var options = {
groupOrder: "content",
stack: false,
margin: { axis: 5 }
};
I am using the horizontal bar chart from chartjs. Right now my Chart seems to be very big, and the space between the ticks on the xAxis is very high. ( I attached picture of that), can anyone tell me how to reduce this space and scale the chart in total better?
My css properties:
#myChart {
width: 90% !important;
height: 100% !important;
padding-left: 0;
padding-right: 0;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
display: block;
padding-bottom: 5%;
}
My chart options:
modelChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'horizontalBar',
data: data,
options: {
scales: {
yAxes: [{
ticks: {
suggestedMin: 0,
fontSize: 18
}
}],
xAxes: [{
ticks: {
autoSkip: false,
fontSize: 18,
beginAtZero: true
}
}]
},
legend: {
display: false
},
tooltips: {
footerFontSize: 22,
bodyFontSize: 22,
titleFontSize: 18
},
hover: {
animationDuration: 0
}
}
});
If you post your corresponding HTML then I can confirm this, but is #myChart the id of your canvas element or of a div that contains your canvas element?
Chart.js will render the chart such that it fully fills the parent of the canvas element. Even if you set a width property on a canvas element it will still not affect the chart size.
Checkout this codepen example that demonstrates the difference. At the top is a chart contained by a div whose width is set to 40%. At the bottom is the same chart but the canvas element's width is set to 40%. Notice that the second chart still fills the entire window.
So long story short, you should wrap your canvas element in a div and set the div's desired size accordingly to actually change the size of your chart.
Now, let me address your question about changing the space between ticks in your X axis. There is not really a way to truly do this like I think you are wanting to do, because chart.js determines the tick placement by dividing the width of the chart by the number of tick steps (e.g. it always uses the full width of the chart equally).
So one way to decrease the space between ticks is to simply add more ticks (by changing the tick stepSize using the stepSize and fixedStepSize properties). Obviously, in this case, the chart size has not changed. You are just showing more ticks, so the space between them has decreased.
If you want to truly change the distance between ticks, then the only way is to decrease the width of the chart. But by default, the height of the chart will decrease along with the width because the maintainAspectRatio property is defaulted to true.
So if you want a narrower chart (but still want the chart to be large) then I would advise you to set the maintainAspectRatio property to false and manually set the height and width of your chart's parent div.
Checkout this codepen that gives an example of each of the tick spacing concepts that I discussed.
The first chart is the baseline, the second chart adds more ticks (thus decreasing the tick spacing), and the third chart changes the aspect ratio so the chart is still large but narrower (therefore the distance between ticks is reduced).
Try using chartArea: {width: '30%'}. Adjust percentage as per requirement. It will compress the width of the chart. Just a thought !!!! I used in horizontal bar graphs to adjust my graph size.
I am using Chart.js as my charting library. I have created horizontalBar chart.
I need to set the width of individual bar in the chart.
I did not found anything specific in chartjs documentation but while looking at source code I found the option barThickness which is setting the fixed bar width
But as number of rows increase, instead of increasing the height of the chart, the bar are colliding with each other. Please check fiddle for example:
https://jsfiddle.net/orhp0zLg/
Is there any way we can increase the height of the chart instead of letting the bars collide with each other?
The barThickness property is a fixed width, as you noticed in your issue.
However, you have an other property called barPercentage which is a multiplier of the max width of your bars.
You should set berPercentage to a value (let's say 0.95) and you'll always have the same format, no matter how many bars you have :
options: {
scales: {
yAxes: [{
barPercentage: 0.95,
}]
}
}
Here is your updated fiddle with the fix and here are the results with first 7 values and then 12 :
I need to deal with large array data in Highcharts and I need to increase the height in Y-Axis and width in X-Axis with scrollbar. How to do this?
My JSFiddle : http://jsfiddle.net/ngendk2o/3/
You can manually increase the height and width of your chart. For example, use:
chart: {
/* ... */,
height: 800,
width: 2000
}
It will automatically add scroll-bars to your page.
See your JSFiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/ngendk2o/4/
It's possible to set the width of the chart "area" ?
I mean not the whole chart only the part with curves.
Or maybe an other solution is to set the x-axis width.
Regards
Indeed, you can set for xAxis width that way:
xAxis: [{
width: 200
}]
