I have a high chart on my web page which is a line chart. It has a functionality to zoom and I capture the zoom event using chart.events.selection. That all is working fine.
But I want to continuously capture the selection event (i.e. basically click and drag event) to show a tooltip in the beginning and end of the selection to show the time user has selected. Couldn't find in high charts documentation. Any help would be appreciated.
Here is my current code to capture selection event:
$(obj.id).highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'areaspline',
backgroundColor:"rgba(0,0,0,0)",
zoomType:"x",
events: {
selection: function(event){
if(!event.xAxis)
return;
.....

Updated example in which labels following selection marker: http://jsfiddle.net/pq0wn0xx/2/
I do not think there is a drag event (not for points), but you can wrap drag pointer's method.
Highcharts.wrap(Highcharts.Pointer.prototype, 'drag', function (p, e) {
p.call(this, e);
var H = Highcharts,
chart = this.chart,
selectionMarker = this.selectionMarker,
bBox,
xAxis,
labelLeft,
labelRight,
labelY,
attr,
css,
timerLeft,
timerRight;
if (selectionMarker) {
if (!chart.customLabels) {
chart.customLabels = [];
}
bBox = selectionMarker.getBBox();
xAxis = chart.xAxis[0];
labelLeft = chart.customLabels[0];
labelRight = chart.customLabels[1];
labelY = chart.plotTop + 10;
if (!labelLeft || !labelRight) {
attr = {
fill: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0],
padding: 10,
r: 5,
zIndex: 8
};
css = {
color: '#FFFFFF'
};
labelLeft = chart.renderer.label('', 0, 0).attr(attr).css(css).add();
labelRight = chart.renderer.label('', 0, 0).attr(attr).css(css).add();
chart.customLabels.push(labelLeft, labelRight);
}
clearTimeout(timerLeft);
clearTimeout(timerRight);
labelLeft.attr({
x: bBox.x - labelLeft.getBBox().width,
y: labelY,
text: 'min: ' + H.numberFormat(xAxis.toValue(bBox.x), 2),
opacity: 1
});
labelRight.attr({
x: bBox.x + bBox.width,
y: labelY,
text: 'max: ' + H.numberFormat(xAxis.toValue(bBox.x + bBox.width), 2),
opacity: 1
});
timerLeft = setTimeout(function () {
labelLeft.fadeOut();
}, 3000);
timerRight = setTimeout(function () {
labelRight.fadeOut();
}, 3000);
}
});
Old answer:
The example from the official API
can be extended to what you need.
The code and the example on jsfiddle are below:
function positionLabels(e, chart) {
if (!chart.customLabels) {
chart.customLabels = [];
}
var labelLeft,
labelRight,
attr,
css,
xAxis,
xMin,
xMax,
yAxis,
yMin,
yMax,
yMiddle,
timerLeft,
timerRight;
if (!e.resetSelection) {
labelLeft = chart.customLabels[0];
labelRight = chart.customLabels[1];
if (!labelLeft || !labelRight) {
attr = {
fill: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0],
padding: 10,
r: 5,
zIndex: 8
};
css = {
color: '#FFFFFF'
};
labelLeft = chart.renderer.label('', 0, 0).attr(attr).css(css).add();
labelRight = chart.renderer.label('', 0, 0).attr(attr).css(css).add();
chart.customLabels.push(labelLeft, labelRight);
}
clearTimeout(timerLeft);
clearTimeout(timerRight);
xAxis = e.xAxis[0].axis;
xMin = e.xAxis[0].min;
xMax = e.xAxis[0].max;
yAxis = chart.yAxis[0];
yMin = yAxis.min;
yMax = yAxis.max;
yMiddle = (yMax - yMin) * 0.95;
labelLeft.attr({
x: xAxis.toPixels(xMin) - labelLeft.getBBox().width,
y: yAxis.toPixels(yMiddle),
text: 'min: ' + Highcharts.numberFormat(xMin, 2),
opacity: 1
});
labelRight.attr({
x: xAxis.toPixels(xMax),
y: yAxis.toPixels(yMiddle),
text: 'max: ' + Highcharts.numberFormat(xMax, 2),
opacity: 1
});
timerLeft = setTimeout(function () {
labelLeft.fadeOut();
}, 2000);
timerRight = setTimeout(function () {
labelRight.fadeOut();
}, 2000);
}
}

I want to add some tooltips for the preconfigured date range buttons (like 1 day, 1 month etc.) in stock chart in highstock. I am not able to find a way to do it.
refer this link
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Highcharts doesn't have built-in tooltip for the rangeSelector, but still you can create your own tooltip for that. It is very simple to add events to the buttons:
Highcharts.stockChart('container', {
chart: {
events: {
load: function() {
var chart = this,
buttons = chart.rangeSelector.buttons;
for (var i = 0, len = buttons.length; i < len; i++) {
(function(i) {
var item = buttons[i],
group = $('.highcharts-range-selector-tooltip'),
rectElem = $('.range-selector-tooltip'),
textElem = $('.range-selector-tooltip-text'),
box;
item.on('mouseover', function(e) {
// Define legend-tooltip text
var str = item.text.textStr;
textElem.text(str)
// Adjust rect size to text
box = textElem[0].getBBox()
rectElem.attr({
x: box.x - 8,
y: box.y - 5,
width: box.width + 15,
height: box.height + 10
})
// Show tooltip
group.attr({
transform: `translate(${e.clientX + 7}, ${e.clientY + 7})`
})
}).on('mouseout', function(e) {
// Hide tooltip
group.attr({
transform: 'translate(-9999,-9999)'
})
});
})(i);
}
}
}
},
...
}, function(chart) {
var group = chart.renderer.g('range-selector-tooltip')
.attr({
transform: 'translate(-9999, -9999)',
zIndex: 99
}).add(),
text = chart.renderer.text()
.attr({
class: 'range-selector-tooltip-text',
zIndex: 7
}).add(group),
box = text.getBBox();
chart.renderer.rect().attr({
'class': 'range-selector-tooltip',
'stroke-width': 1,
'stroke': 'grey',
'fill': 'white',
'zIndex': 6
})
.add(group)
});

I have been using Konva for drawing, I would like the arrow to "snap" to the other groups or shapes when the tip of the arrow intersects them and the user lets up on the mouse. If the arrow does not interset one then it should automatically delete its self.
Then when the groups or shapes are moved I would like the tips of the arrow to move with it.
I found an example of something similar but I'm not sure how I can combine them to get what I want.
I will post my current code below.

Code
var width = height = 170;
var stage = new Konva.Stage({
container: 'container',
width: width,
height: height
});
var layer = new Konva.Layer();
var isDrawArrow;
var Startpos;
var Endpos;
var arrow = new Konva.Arrow({
points: [],
pointerLength: 10,
pointerWidth: 10,
fill: 'black',
stroke: 'black',
strokeWidth: 4
});
var circle = new Konva.Circle({
x: stage.getWidth() / 2,
y: stage.getHeight() / 2,
radius: 20,
fill: 'green'
});
var circleA = new Konva.Circle({
x: stage.getWidth() / 5,
y: stage.getHeight() / 5,
radius: 30,
fill: 'red',
draggable: true
});
circle.on('mouseover', function() {
document.body.style.cursor = 'pointer';
layer.draw()
});

stage.draw();
}
function haveIntersection(r1, r2) {
return !(
r2.x > r1.x + r1.width ||
r2.x + r2.width < r1.x ||
r2.y > r1.y + r1.height ||
r2.y + r2.height < r1.y
);

To do the snap you needed a function to determine distance between 2 points.
Easily done with a pythagorean calculation, (if you need help with that read about it here).
On the mouse move when you detect that the distance between the end of the arrow and your point (on this case the center or the red cirle) is less than what you want you can "snap it" that is what you do on your function adjustPoint that was all good.
On the mouse up you also need to check the distance and if is too far just hide the arrow
Working Code below:
var width = height = 170;
var stage = new Konva.Stage({
container: 'container',
width: width,
height: height
});
var layer = new Konva.Layer();
var isDrawArrow, Startpos, Endpos;
var snapDistance = 20;
function distance(p, c) {
var dx = p.x - c.getX();
var dy = p.y - c.getY();
return Math.sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy);
}
var arrow = new Konva.Arrow({
points: [],
pointerLength: 10,
pointerWidth: 10,
fill: 'black',
stroke: 'black',
strokeWidth: 4
});
var circle = new Konva.Circle({
x: stage.getWidth() - 25,
y: stage.getHeight() - 25,
radius: 20,
fill: 'green'
});
var circleA = new Konva.Circle({
x: stage.getWidth() / 5,
y: stage.getHeight() / 5,
radius: 25,
fill: 'red',
draggable: true
});
circle.on('mousedown touchstart', function() {
isDrawArrow = true;
circleA.on('dragmove', adjustPoint);
Startpos = stage.getPointerPosition();
});
stage.addEventListener('mouseup touchend', function() {
isDrawArrow = false;
if (distance(Endpos, circleA) > snapDistance) {
arrow.hide();
layer.batchDraw();
}
});
stage.addEventListener('mousemove touchmove', function() {
if (!isDrawArrow) return;
Endpos = stage.getPointerPosition()
var p = [Startpos.x, Startpos.y, Endpos.x, Endpos.y];
arrow.setPoints(p);
arrow.show();
layer.add(arrow);
layer.batchDraw();
if (distance(Endpos, circleA) <= snapDistance) {
adjustPoint();
isDrawArrow = false
}
});
function adjustPoint(e) {
var p = [circle.getX(), circle.getY(), circleA.getX(), circleA.getY()];

What I want to do is manually change the color of each category (piece) of the funnel (for example, maybe first category red, second category orange, third category yellow). I know that there are some ways to enter in data into a series in Highcharts such as:
[['CATEOGRY', 'VALUE],...['CATEGORY','VALUE']]
or you can do an array with names value and specify something like
color: "#00FF00" inside of it.
So maybe I can use the second form of writing data into a series cause you can specify color.
However, how would I be able to specify color of the pieces WHILE ALSO ensuring that the data processing algorithm to scale when there are small values works and the rest of the code works?
Also, is there any way to specify color given the current array of data that I have in my code? Being dataEx = [['CATEOGRY', 'VALUE],...['CATEGORY','VALUE']]
You can simply set the color as the third element in dataEx array and then set it as a point color:
var dataEx = [
['1 Visit', 352000, 'red'],
['2 Visits', 88000, 'orange'],
['3+ Visits', 42000, 'yellow']
],
len = dataEx.length,
sum = 0,
minHeight = 0.05,
data = [];
//specify your percent of prior visit value manually here:
var perc = [100, 25, 48];
for (var i = 0; i < len; i++) {
sum += dataEx[i][1];
}
for (var i = 0; i < len; i++) {
var t = dataEx[i],
r = t[1] / sum;
data[i] = {
name: t[0],
color: t[2],
y: (r > minHeight ? t[1] : sum * minHeight),
percent: perc[i], // <----- this here is manual input
//percent: Math.round(r * 100), <--- this here is mathematical
label: t[1]
}

Let me present a generic approach that works with any such chart aslong as its dataset contains zero or positive values only.
The background colors together with the upper values can simply be defined inside the dataset as follows:
bgColors: [
{ color: 'red', upTo: 40 },
{ color: 'yellow', upTo: 70 },
{ color: 'green', upTo: 100 }
]
Then you could extend an existing line chart (i.e. 'lineDiffBgColors') and overwrite its update function. In there, you would create a linear CanvasGradient and add color stops that correspond to the definitions of bgColors mentioned above. At the end, the linear gradient needs to be assigned to the backgroundColor option of your dataset.
this.chart.data.datasets[0].backgroundColor = gradient;
Please have a look at your enhanced code below.
Chart.defaults.lineDiffBgColors = Chart.defaults.line;
Chart.controllers.lineDiffBgColors = Chart.controllers.line.extend({
update: function(reset) {
var yAxis = this.chart.scales['y-axis-0'];
var bgColors = this.chart.data.datasets[0].bgColors.slice().reverse();
var max = Math.max.apply(null, bgColors.map(o => o.upTo));
var min = yAxis.getValueForPixel(yAxis.bottom);
var yTop = yAxis.getPixelForValue(max);
var gradient = this.chart.chart.ctx.createLinearGradient(0, yTop, 0, yAxis.bottom);
let offset = 0;
bgColors.forEach((bgc, i) => {
gradient.addColorStop(offset, bgc.color);
if (i + 1 == bgColors.length) {
offset = 1;
} else {
offset = (max - bgColors[i + 1].upTo) / (max - min);
}
gradient.addColorStop(offset, bgc.color);
});
this.chart.data.datasets[0].backgroundColor = gradient;
return Chart.controllers.line.prototype.update.apply(this, arguments);
}
});
new Chart('myChart', {
type: 'lineDiffBgColors',
data: {
datasets: [{
label: 'Dataset',
data: [
{ x: 1, y: 10 },
{ x: 2, y: 50 },
{ x: 3, y: 88 },
{ x: 4, y: 5 }
],
bgColors: [
{ color: 'red', upTo: 40 },
{ color: 'yellow', upTo: 70 },
{ color: 'green', upTo: 100 }
]
}]
},
options: {
scales: {
xAxes: [{
type: 'linear'
}]
}
}
});
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/2.9.3/Chart.js"></script>
<canvas id="myChart" height="100"></canvas>
In case you prefer kind of smooth gradient, you could change the bgColors.forEach loop inside the update function as follows.
bgColors.forEach((bgc, i) => {
gradient.addColorStop(offset == 0 ? 0 : offset + 0.05, bgc.color);
if (i + 1 == bgColors.length) {
offset = 1;
} else {
offset = (max - bgColors[i + 1].upTo) / (max - min);
}
gradient.addColorStop(offset == 1 ? 1 : offset - 0.05, bgc.color);
});
Well you can try something (ugly) like this, there is a comment in the snippet where the gradient is defined.
Surely the colors and composition of the gradient can be determined by input properties like you want. Also, one could play with the gradient position or make a radial gradient instead of a linear one.
One last thing, this snippet can really be improved, basically what I did is to identify how the chart is drawn by the library and in which part of it's lifecycle is done, then I copy it into a plugin and replace the solid background color for a canvas linear gradient ;)
To improve the snippet I would start by trying to use the methods defined inside the Chart object (like lineTo() or drawArea()) instead of copying them inside the plugin, then implement the options defined inside the options object to create the linear gradient.

Using various posts/questions in SO as reference I created a scatter highchart jsfiddle
xAxis: {
opposite:true,
type: 'datetime',
gridLineWidth: 1,
gridLineDashStyle: 'ShortDot',
gridLineColor:'black',
alternateGridColor: 'lightgrey',
tickInterval: 3 * 30 * 24 * 3600 * 1000, // 1 quarter
labels: {
//align: "left",
//padding:200,
formatter: function () {
var s = "";
if (Highcharts.dateFormat('%b', this.value) == 'Jan') {
s = s + "Q1"
};
if (Highcharts.dateFormat('%b', this.value) == 'Apr') {
s = s + "Q2"
};
if (Highcharts.dateFormat('%b', this.value) == 'Jul') {
s = s + "Q3"
};
if (Highcharts.dateFormat('%b', this.value) == 'Oct') {
s = s + "Q4"
};
s = s + " " + Highcharts.dateFormat('%Y', this.value);
return s;
}
},
plotLines: [{
color: 'red', // Color value
value: now, // Value of where the line will appear
width: 2, // Width of the line
label: {
text: 'Now',
align: 'center',
verticalAlign: 'bottom',
y: +20,
rotation: 0
}
}]
},
But I'm struck with having the X-axis label positioned near the tick.
How to move to middle of the grid?
Is there anyway I can achieve the below?
I tried align, padding but didn't help. When the timeline increases I should still have the labels positioned in the middle.
should I do something with tickInterval? It might be a simple property I'm missing.
I found this link jsfiddle which addresses my concern but with 2 x-axis and I'm populating the data from a list.
I implemented Christopher Cortez' solution found here:
However, also changed to to fire on the highcharts load event, rather than the callback, and I've changed it to be recalled when the HighCharts redraw event is fired, so that they stay aligned when the page is resized.
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
defaultSeriesType: 'scatter',
events: {
load: centerLabels,
redraw: centerLabels
}
},
/* ... all the other options ...*/
});
Where
function centerLabels(chart) {
var $container = $(chart.target.container);
var axes = chart.target.axes;
var $labels = $container.find('.highcharts-axis-labels .timeline_label');
var $thisLabel, $nextLabel, thisXPos, nextXPos, delta, newXPos;
$labels.each(function () {
$thisLabel = $(this).parent('span');
thisXPos = parseInt($thisLabel.css('left'));
$nextLabel = $thisLabel.next();
// next position is either a label or the end of the axis
nextXPos = $nextLabel.length ? parseInt($nextLabel.css('left')) : axes[0].left + axes[0].width;
delta = (nextXPos - thisXPos) / 2.0;
newXPos = thisXPos + delta;
// remove the last label if it won't fit
if ($nextLabel.length || $(this).width() + newXPos < nextXPos) {
$thisLabel.css('left', newXPos + 'px');
} else {
$thisLabel.remove();
}
});
}
