I am using HighCharts combination chart to compare a forecast value(indicated by line) and a cumulative value (indicated by column). The cumulative value keeps increasing weekly and I want to be able to see if it reaches the predicted forecast value.
I created a graph in this js fiddle, http://jsfiddle.net/aroauy4t/ .
I have shown the js code below.
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
title: {
text: 'Forecast Vs Cumulative chart'
},
xAxis: {
categories: [' ', ' ', 'Bananas', ' ', ' ']
},
labels: {
items: [{
style: {
left: '50px',
top: '18px',
color: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.textColor) || 'black'
}
}]
},
series: [{
type: 'column',
name: 'Cumulative',
data: [0, 0, 5, 0, 0]
}, {
type: 'line',
name: 'Forecast',
data: [3, 3, 3, 3, 3],
marker: {
lineWidth: 2,
lineColor: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[3],
fillColor: 'white'
}
}]
});
});
But the tooltip content overflows when the x axis doesn't contain a label like in the image shown below.
How can I get the tooltip to behave without any overflow (like in the image below)
You could also make use of tooltip - useHTML property.
When turned on the tooltip is rendered as excepted.
tooltip: {
useHTML: true
}

I got it to work (I don't know HighCharts very well) by using the following in your js fiddle:
categories: ["\u00A0", "\u00A0", 'Bananas', "\u00A0", "\u00A0"]
00A0 is the unicode character for non-breaking space.
Maybe it will work for you.

I have a chart which has part line and part area stacked. In the first part (area) I want to add an inline legend as it is shown in this example (ie where it says Asia)
https://www.highcharts.com/demo/area-stacked-percent
These are the example options but I do not see how to specify that or if this is the default way to show legends in this plot
In my example, I cannot put the legends inside the area part. Tried to add title in yAxis. I also tried to add an annotation but it did not work:
https://jsfiddle.net/hkpna40r/1/
annotations: [{
labelOptions: {
backgroundColor: 'rgba(255,255,255,0.5)',
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: 4
},
labels: [{
point: {
xAxis: 0,
yAxis: 0,
x: Date.UTC(2019, 11, 2),
y: 3
},
zIndex:100,
text: 'Arbois'
}],
}],
You can achieve what you want by attaching a module called series-label and set plotOptions.area.label like that:
plotOptions: {
area: {
label: {
enabled: true,
onArea: false
}
},
line: {
label: {
enabled: false
}
}
}
Note, annotations also work but you have to attach annotations module separately.

I'm creating a HighStock column bar chart. I have enabled the scrollbar using scrollbar: enabled. The scrollbar works fine for smaller datasets, but this dataset has a lot of categories(I've only included half as many as I need). For some reason, after a certain number, the rects for the bar chart won't properly show(or show wrong values) and the xAxis labels display as numbers rather than their actual names. Also, I'm trying to add IDs to each of the bars to add click events, but it only adds IDs to bars that are properly rendered initially. I have also noticed that I can properly add IDs even with a scrollbar to smaller data sets because all of the rect elements are properly rendered. Is there any way to make this scrollbar work for larger datasets?
You'll see what the problem described above looks like in this link:

Highcharts.chart('container', {

}
},

},

},
series: [{
name: 'Totals',
color: 'rgb(245,111,35)',
data: [["Spec1",1000],["Spec2", 1000], ["Spec3",500],["Spec4",300],["Spec5",1000],["Spec6", 1000], ["Spec26",500],["Spec27",300],["Spec28",1000],["Spec29", 1000], ["Spec30",500],["Spec31",300],["Spec32",1000],["Spec33", 1000], ["Spec34",500],["Spec35",300],["Spec36",300],["Spec37",300], ["Spec38",300], ["Spec39",300], ["Spec40",300], ["Spec41",300], ["Spec42",300], ["Spec43",300], ["Spec44",300], ["Spec45",300], ["Spec46",300],["Spec47",1000],["Spec48", 1000], ["Spec49",500],["Spec50",300],["Spec51",1000],["Spec52", 1000], ["Spec53",500],["Spec54",300],["Spec55",1000],["Spec56", 1000], ["Spec57",500],["Spec58",300],["Spec59",300],["Spec60",300], ["Spec61",300], ["Spec62",300], ["Spec63",300], ["Spec64",300], ["Spec65",300], ["Spec66",300], ["Spec67",300], ["Spec68",300], ["Spec",300],["Spec24",1000],["Spec25", 1000], ["Spec26",500],["Spec27",300],["Spec28",1000],["Spec29", 1000], ["Spec30",500],["Spec31",300],["Spec32",1000],["Spec33", 1000], ["Spec34",500],["Spec35",300],["Spec36",300], ["Spec44",300], ["Spec45",300], ["Spec46",300],["Unknown",250]]
}]
});
It happens because the number of points in series is bigger than the default value of the cropThreshold property (more about below, in the API Reference section). As a solution, set the property with the bigger value.

How to display it on the left side?
Thanks for your help.

A general useful tip for all numeral-direction-problems in RTL languages is to
apply direction:ltr and display:inline-block on the element which is wrapping the number.
in this specific case you also need to add tooltip : { useHTML:true } on the highcharts object in order for highcharts to render the tooltip using html (and not svg) ...
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
I'm trying to create a chart using highcharts with dates on the x-axis.
I'm using the following example from the Highcharts website as it is almost exactly what I am trying to achieve.
Using getJson I am getting json from a URL in this format:
[[Date.UTC(2016,04,29),3],[Date.UTC(2016,04,30),1],[Date.UTC(2016,05,02),4]]
As you can see it is similar to the format used in the example. However I get the following error from getJson:
angular.js:12416 SyntaxError: Unexpected token D in JSON at position 2
I don't think Date.UTC is the issue, as when I remove it I still get an error for the next character "(".
When I remove the getJson function and simply hardcode the above values into data, exactly as it is formatted above, the chart renders perfectly. I don't understand how it works when I hardcode it but doesn't if not.
The code is as follows (exactly like in the official highcharts example really)
$(function () {
$.getJSON('http://localhost:8181/graphData', function (data) {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
zoomType: 'x'
},
title: {
text: 'Visitors per day'
},
subtitle: {
text: document.ontouchstart === undefined ?
'Click and drag in the plot area to zoom in' : 'Pinch the chart to zoom in'
},
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime'
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Num people'
}
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
plotOptions: {
area: {
fillColor: {
linearGradient: {
x1: 0,
y1: 0,
x2: 0,
y2: 1
},
stops: [
[0, Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]],
[1, Highcharts.Color(Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]).setOpacity(0).get('rgba')]
]
},
marker: {
radius: 2
},
lineWidth: 1,
states: {
hover: {
lineWidth: 1
}
},
threshold: null
}
},
series: [{
type: 'area',
name: 'USD to EUR',
data: data
}]
});
});
});
