How to make a Highcharts bar disappear? - javascript

I'm trying to think of a way where a user can click a button and cause a Highcharts bar to disappear.
For example, in my Highcharts code here:
$(function(){
Highcharts.setOptions({
colors:['#49acdd'],
chart:{
style: {
fontFamily:'Helvetica',
color:'#384044'
}
}
});
$("#chart").highcharts({
chart: {
type:'column',
backgroundColor:'#158479'
},
title: {
text: "Employer Organizations",
style: {
color: "#8A2BE2" //wmakes the text white
}
},
xAxis: {
tickWidth: 1,
labels: {
style: {
color: '#cc3737'
}
},
categories:[
'Educational and School-Based','Government Orgs','Charitable Foundation Orgs','Health-care Orgs','Market Research Orgs','Technology Firms','Human Service Orgs','Accounting/Finance Firms'
]
},
yAxis: {
gridLineWidth:0, //no gridlines
title: {
text:'',
style:{
color:'#fff'
}
},
labels: {
formatter:function(){
return Highcharts.numberFormat(this.value,0,'', ' ,');//returns ex: 1000 to 1,000
},
style:{
color:'#33FF00'
}
}
},//end of y axis
plotOptions:{
column: {
borderRadius: 4,
pointPadding:0,//paddin between each column or bar
groupPadding:0.1//Padding between each value groups, in x axis units
}
},
series: [{
name: "Employer Organizations",
data: [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]
}]
});
});
I know the "plotOptions.bar.events.click" exists for triggering click-based functions, but I'm unable to find a function that lets a Highchart bar disappear when clicked upon.

To disappear particular column in highcharts. Modify your plotOptions
plotOptions: {
column: {
borderRadius: 4,
pointPadding: 0, //paddin between each column or bar
groupPadding: 0.1 //Padding between each value groups, in x axis units
},
series: {
point: {
events: {
click: function() {
if (!confirm('Do you really want to remove this column?')) {
return false;
} else {
this.remove();
}
}
},
}
}
},

How can I get the yAxis of Highcharts to display categories instead of number values?

I have this fiddle JSfiddle
Here is the reproduced code:
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'bar'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Heroku', 'Ruby','Lisp','Javascript','Python','PHP']
},
yAxis: {
categories: ['low','medium','high'],
title: {
text: 'expertise',
align: 'high'
},
labels: {
overflow: 'justify'
}
},
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: ' millions'
},
plotOptions: {
bar: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true
}
}
},
series: [{
data: ['low','high','low','medium','medium']
}]
});
});
If you look at the fiddle the yAxis does not render and has a value of for every x category. I've been looking at the highcharts api, but I can't seem to get this right. The code makes sense to me but I'm obviously doing something wrong. Can someone point out why the YAxis is not displaying correctly?
As mentioned in my comment, you need to supply the numeric value of the category, not the category name.
In the case of categories, the numeric value is the array index.
Also, in your case, the way you are trying to plot the values, I would add an empty category at the beginning, otherwise your first category of low gets plotted as 0, which doesn't seem right.
So,
categories: ['low','medium','high']
Becomes
categories: ['','low','medium','high'],
And
data: ['low','high','low','medium','medium']
Becomes
data: [1,3,1,2,2]

Trick is to utilize the formatter function. You can use a similar formatter function on y-axis labels too if that's desired. Though it seems like you need it for data labels for this problem.
$(function() {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'bar'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Heroku', 'Ruby', 'Lisp', 'Javascript', 'Python', 'PHP']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'expertise',
align: 'high'
},
labels: {
overflow: 'justify',
}
},
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: ' millions'
},
plotOptions: {
bar: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function() {
if (this.y == 0) {
return 'low'
} else if (this.y == 1) {
return 'medium'
} else {
console.log(this.y);
return 'high'
}
}
}
}
},
series: [{
data: [0, 2, 0, 1, 1]
}]
});
});
In my opinion, it is kinda unlikely for a line graph to have a y-axis category, since it speaks more of amount or value. In your case, "low, medium, and high" speaks of ranges, with which a certain value can be assigned to any of it.
Thus, Highcharts accepts series data in numeric form. But you can work around it by setting ['low', 'medium', 'high'] in the category attribute of yAxis, then setting series data as an array of number corresponding to the index of the category, i.e. [0,1,1,2,...] and tweaking the tooltip to display the category instead of the y value using formatter attribute.
Here is the code:
$(function() {
yCategories = ['low', 'medium', 'high'];
$('#container').highcharts({
title: {
text: 'Chart with category axes'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Heroku', 'Ruby','Lisp','Javascript','Python','PHP']
},
yAxis: {
categories: yCategories
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return this.point.category + ': ' + yCategories[this.y];
}
},
series: [{
data: [0, 1, 2, 2, 1]
}]
});
});
Here is a working example : JSFiddle

Highcharts multiple y axis with data from csv file

I've been creating charts on my company's website with data that is populated from a csv file. I need to add two additional y axes on the right side of the chart. I tried doing so by following Highchart's instructions, but my data is coming from a CSV file and I can't manage to get the two additional axes to connect to the data. Meaning, the other two splines look flat compared to the one that is actually plotting to it's y axis.
Below is the chart's JS file. The CSV file is 4 columns, which from left to right are Date, Overall, VIX, GSPC
Thank you in advance!

How do I make a Tornado Chart using Highcharts

I am trying to prepare a Tornado Chart using the column chart in Highcharts. Here is my fiddle.
My current code is:
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'columnrange',
inverted: true
},
title: {
text: 'Net Sales'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'MM $'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Annual Revenue', 'Number of Years', 'Annual Costs']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'MM $'
}
},
plotOptions: {
columnrange: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function () {
return this.y;
}
}
},
scatter:{
marker:{
symbol:'line',
lineWidth:11,
radius:8,
lineColor:'#f00'
}
}
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
name: 'Temperatures',
data: [
[12.15, 46.86],
[15.45, 42.28],
[27.77, 31.24]
]
},
{
name:'Base',type: 'scatter',data:[120],
}]
});
The problem is that the last series (Annual Costs) does not show, as it is in reversed order. Also, I'd like the Tornado Chart to look more like this:
Note that the labels in this chart are different from the actual values plotted. Also note that the bar in the center - in the example code, there would be a vertical line at 29.5. I would also like to support a combined uncertainty bar like the one at the bottom. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Your last bat is not showing, because first number is lower than second, see: http://jsfiddle.net/kErPt/1/
If you want to display another values at labels, then add that info first. Example:
data: [{
low: 12,
high: 15,
lowLabel: 35,
highLabel: 46
}, {
low: 2,
high: 35,
lowLabel: 15,
highLabel: 26
} ... ]
And then use dataLabels.formatter for series.
To add vertical line use plotLines.
I'm not sure what is the last bar called 'combined uncertainty'.
I've used Highcharts with separate series (thanks jlbriggs) to create a Tornado Chart: http://jsfiddle.net/uRjBp/
var baseValue = 29.5;
var outputTitle = "Net Sales";
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo:'container',
//type:'column'
//type:'area'
//type:'scatter'
//type:'bubble'
},
credits: {},
exporting: {},
legend: {},
title: {
text: outputTitle
},
subtitle: {
text: "MM $"
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
var msg = "";
var index = this.series.chart.xAxis[0].categories.indexOf(this.x);
var low = round(this.series.chart.series[0].data[index].y+baseValue);
var high = round(this.series.chart.series[1].data[index].y+baseValue);
if (this.x === "Combined Uncertainty") {
msg = "Combined Uncertainty in "+outputTitle+": "+low+" to "+high;
} else {
var lowLabel = this.series.chart.series[0].data[index].label;
var highLabel = this.series.chart.series[1].data[index].label;
msg = '<b>'+outputTitle+'</b> goes from '+ low +' to '+ high+'<br/> when '+this.x +
' goes from <br/> '+lowLabel+" to "+highLabel;
}
return msg;
}
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function () {
var index = this.series.chart.xAxis[0].categories.indexOf(this.x);
if (this.series.userOptions.labels === undefined) {
return this.y+baseValue;
}
return this.key === "Combined Uncertainty" ? "":this.series.userOptions.labels[index];
}
}
}
},
xAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Factor'
},
allowDecimals:false,
categories: ['Annual Revenue', 'Number of Years', 'Annual Costs', 'Combined Uncertainty']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'MM $'
},
labels: {
formatter:function() {
return this.value+baseValue;
}
}
},
series:[{
name: 'Low',
grouping:false,
type:'bar',
data:[{y:12.15-baseValue, label:10},{y:15.45-baseValue, label:1},{y:31.25-baseValue, label:2},{y:12.15-baseValue, color:'#99CCFF', label: ""}],
labels:[10,1,2,]
},{
name: 'High',
grouping:false,
type:'bar',
data:[{y:46.86-baseValue, label:30},{y:42.28-baseValue, label:3},{y:27.77-baseValue, label:4},{y:46.86-baseValue, color:'#99CCFF', label:""}],
labels:[30,3,4,]
},
{
name: 'Median',
type: 'scatter',
data: [null,null, null,27-baseValue],
marker: {
lineWidth: 2,
lineColor: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[3],
fillColor: 'white'
}
}]
});
function round(num) {
return Math.round(num*100)/100;
}
usually, this kind of chart is done using a separate series for the left and right portions
One way to do this is by setting one set of data as negative numbers, and then using the formatters to make the axis labels, datalabels, and tooltips display the absolute values
example:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/yPLVP/68/
UPDATE:
to show a line as in your original chart, you can extend the marker symbols to include a line type, and use a scatter series to draw that point:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/yPLVP/69/
If you don't want to have the extra code for the line marker type, you could use any of the other existing marker symbols for the scatter series.

Remove scrolled part of highcharts

Can the highlighted "green" part be removed?
code:
chart = new Highcharts.StockChart({
chart: {
renderTo: renderTo,
},
title: {
text: 'test - ' + title
},
zoomType: false,
subtitle: {
text: 'some text'
},
rangeSelector: {
selected: 4
},
yAxis: {
labels: {
formatter: function() {
return (this.value / 1000000) + "mil";
}
},
plotLines: [{
value: 0,
width: 2,
color: 'silver'
}]
},
credits: {
enabled:false
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
marker : {
enabled : true,
radius : 3
}
}
},
},
series: seriesOptions
});

Highcharts stacking bar chart border not displaying on right side

When I create a stacking bar chart, the rightmost 'box' doesn't have the border drawn on the right hand side.
Is there an option or something that I can set in Highcharts to force the white border line to be drawn around the 75% box in the image seen below?
Here is a link to the jsfiddle I used for testing:
http://jsfiddle.net/zKgsF/
Please note: Setting the borderWidth property to higher than 1 works in displaying, but the rightmost border is much thinner than the others. See the image below.
Here is the javascript for the chart:
$(function () {
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'bar',
backgroundColor: 'rgba(0,0,0,.3)',
margin: [15,6,15,15],
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['']
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
yAxis: {
gridLineColor: "#FF0000",
labels:
{
align: 'right',
formatter: function()
{
return this.value + "%";
}
},
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function()
{
return "<b>" + this.series.name + '</b>: ' + this.y + ' (' + Math.round(this.percentage,1) + "%)";
}
},
plotOptions: {
bar: {
animation: false,
stacking: 'percent',
borderWidth: '1',
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
color: 'white',
formatter: function() {
if (this.percentage < 10)
{
return ""
}
else
{
return Math.round(this.percentage,1) + "%";
}
},
style: {
fontSize: '18px'
}
}
}
},
series: [{
data: [30]
},{
data: [10]
}]
});
});
EDIT:
Looks like it's not related to the bar chart being "stackable". It might just be related to the fact that the chart goes to the max 'y' value axis... as seen here in another example: http://jsfiddle.net/zKgsF/1/
As suggested by Cubbuk, you can tweak it with by adding the max value of yAxis.
In addition, you can specify a endOnTick property too.
max: 100.1,
endOnTick: false
For API navigate here and for here is an example.
