I am trying to create a line graph, wherein if all the values for the particular series is zero then, I want the line to be drawn on the bottom over the x-axis line. But it seems like the line of the x-axis takes the preference than the series line. Is there any way to change that?
Below is my configuration:
xAxis: {
type: "datetime",
tickmarkPlacement: "on",
lineWidth: 10,
lineColor: 'red',
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
minRange : 0.1,
title: {
text: ""
}
},
plotOptions: {
line: {
softThreshold: false
}
},
Example:
http://jsfiddle.net/shivajyothibalavikas/twxs7mL2/3
In the above example the axis line color is red and series line color is black. but red takes the preference. I want the black line to take the preference while displaying
It is not possible to move a series line above an axis line by options in Highcharts API. As a solution, you can use the Highcharts.SVGRenderer class and draw a custom line at the chart bottom.
chart: {
...,
events: {
render: function() {
const chart = this;
const x1 = chart.plotLeft;
const x2 = x1 + chart.plotWidth;
const y = chart.plotTop + chart.plotHeight;
if (!chart.customLine) {
chart.customLine = chart.renderer
.path().attr({
stroke: 'red',
'stroke-width': 10
}).add();
}
chart.customLine.attr({
d: ['M', x1, y, 'L', x2, y]
});
}
}
}

This is probably just maths.
I am using Konva to dynamically generate shapes, which I'm storing as a label. So there's a label which contains a textElement and a rectangle. I want to make sure text in that rectangle is always a) Centered horizontally and vertically and b) facing the right way up.
So a rectangle could have any rotation, but I always want the text centered and facing the right way up.
The code for creation; width, height, rotation, x and y all have values pulled from a database.
var table = new Konva.Label({
x: pos_x,
y: pos_y,
width: tableWidth,
height: tableHeight,
draggable:true
});
table.add(new Konva.Rect({
width: tableWidth,
height: tableHeight,
rotation: rotation,
fill: fillColor,
stroke: strokeColor,
strokeWidth: 4
}));
table.add(new Konva.Text({
width: tableWidth,
height: tableHeight,
x: pos_x, //Defaults to zero
y: pos_y, //Default to zero
text: tableNumber,
verticalAlign: 'middle',
align: 'center',
fontSize: 30,
fontFamily: 'Calibri',
fill: 'black'
}))
tableLayer.add(table);
The problem is, if rotation is in place, text is off center, as in this image:
I do manually correct in some circumstances - for example if rotation = 45 degrees:
pos_x = -tableWidth/2;
pos_y = tableHeight/5;
but that is not a permanent solution. I want the x and y co-ordinates of the text to be at the centerpoint of the shape itself.
I've tried a few approaches (such as applying rotation to the Label itself and then negative rotation value to the text)
This code snippet illustrates a solution. It is copied & modified from my other self-answer when I was looking for a robust approach to rotation around an arbitrary point - note that I consider this a slightly different question than my original so I have not suggested this is a dup. The difference is the need to work with a more complex grouped shape and to keep some element within that group unrotated.
Not in the OP's question, but I set a background rectangle into the text by making the text a group. The purpose of this was to show that the text rectangle will extend outside the label rectangle in some points of rotation. This is not a critical issue but it is useful to see it happen.
The fundamental challenge for the coder is to understand how the shapes move when rotated since we usually want to spin them around their centre but the fundamental 2D canvas pattern that Konva (and all HTML5 canvas wrappers) follow is to rotate from the top-left corner, al least for rectangles as per shapes in the question. It 'is' possible to move the rotation point (known as the offset) but again that is a conceptual challenge for the dev and a nice trap for anyone trying to support the code later.
There's a lot of code in this answer that is here to set up something dynamic that you can use to visualise what is going on. However, the crux is in this:
// This is the important call ! Cross is the rotation point as illustrated by crosshairs.
rotateAroundPoint(shape, rotateBy, {x: cross.x(), y: cross.y()});
// The label is a special case because we need to keep the text unrotated.
if (shape.name() === 'label'){
let text = shape.find('.text')[0];
rotateAroundPoint(text, -1 * rotateBy, {x: text.getClientRect().width/2, y: text.getClientRect().height/2});
}
The rotateAroundPoint() function takes as parameters the Konva shape to rotate, the clockwise rotation angle (not radians, good ole degrees), and the x & y position of the rotation point on the canvas / parent.
I constructed a group of shapes as my label, composing it from a rectangle and a text shape. I named this 'label'. Actually I switched the text shape to be another group of rect + text to that I could show the rectangle the text sits within. You could leave out the extra group. I named this 'text'.
The first call to rotateAroundPoint() rotates the group named 'label'. So the group rotates on the canvas. Since the 'text' is a child of the 'label' group, that would leave the 'text' rotated, so the next line checks if we are working with the 'label' group, and if so we need to get hold of the 'text' shape which is what this line does:
let text = shape.find('.text')[0];
In Konva the result of a find() is a list so we take the first in the list. Now all that remains for me to do is rotate the text on the 'label' group back again by applying the negative rotation degrees to its center point. The line below achieves this.
rotateAroundPoint(text, -1 * rotateBy, {x: text.getClientRect().width/2, y: text.getClientRect().height/2});
One note worthy of mention - I used a group for my 'text' shape. A Konva group does not naturally have a width or height - it is more of a means to collect shapes together but without a 'physical' container. So to get its width and height for the centre point calculations I use the group.getClientRect() method which gives the size of the minimum bounding box that would contain all shapes in the group, and yields an object formed as {width: , height: }.
Second note - the first use of rotateAroundPoint() affects the 'label' group which has as its parent the canvas. The second use of that function affects the 'text' group which has the 'label' group as its parent. Its subtle but worth knowing.
Here is the snippet. I urge you to run it fullscreen and spin a few shapes around a few different points.

I need to draw custom markers on a highchart at particular intervals.
I have managed to create a custom bar using the following javascript:
Highcharts.Renderer.prototype.symbols.hline =
function(x, y, width, height) {
return ['M',x-30 ,y + height / 2,'L',x+width+30,y + width / 2];
};
https://jsfiddle.net/jimmain/9gqca584/5/
My problem is that I need to also draw a single pixel border around the pink box.
I am using a stacked bar chart for the chart.
Ideally I would also like to increase the padding underneath the bar (between the bar and the x-axis) but I am not sure it can be independently increased.
It's not clear to me how I can use the renderer to change color. I could just draw one black box, and then another smaller inset pink box on top, but I am not clear on how to change colors in the SVG renderer.
SVG's path can not have border, so solution is to use renderer.rect(): https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/9gqca584/43/
Note: It's bar series, so chart is inverted, that means we need to swap x with y and height with width.
Snippet:
function addRect(chart) {
return chart.renderer.rect(
chart.yAxis[0].toPixels(5) - 4, // 4 = half width
chart.xAxis[0].toPixels(0),
8,
5
).attr({
fill: 'rgba(253,0,154,0.9)',
stroke: 'black',
'stroke-width': 2,
zIndex: 5
}).add();
}
function positionRect(chart, rect) {
rect.animate({
x: chart.yAxis[0].toPixels(5) - 4, // 4 = half width
y: chart.xAxis[0].toPixels(0) - chart.series[0].points[0].pointWidth / 2,
height: chart.series[0].points[0].pointWidth
});
}
$(function() {
$('#container').highcharts({
legend: {
enabled: false
},
chart: {
type: 'bar',
events: {
load: function() {
this.customRect = addRect(this);
positionRect(this, this.customRect);
},
redraw: function() {
positionRect(this, this.customRect)
}
}
},
...
});
});
I am creating a circle as a group of kinetic arcs. When I cache the group and subsequently call the draw function on the layer, three quarters of the circle are hidden. I think layer.draw may require an offset but really I'm only guessing. When I remove the fill, stroke or opacity from the arc or the object literal from the cache call then the full circle is displayed. http://jsfiddle.net/leydar/gm2FT/5/ Any insights gratefully received.
function createArc(n){
var arc = new Kinetic.Arc({
innerRadius: 30,
outerRadius: 50,
/* if I remove the fill, stroke or opacity
the full wheel is correctly displayed */
fill: 'blue',
stroke: 'black',
opacity: 0.3,
strokeWidth: 1,
angle: 36,
rotation: 36*n
});
return arc;
}
function init() {
var arc;
var stage = new Kinetic.Stage({
container: 'container',
width: 104,
height: 104
});
var layer = new Kinetic.Layer();
var circle = new Kinetic.Group();
for(var i=0;i<10;i++) {
arc = createArc(i);
circle.add(arc);
};
layer.add(circle);
stage.add(layer);
/* if I do not cache or do not call layer.draw()
then again the wheel is correctly displayed */
circle.cache({
x: -52,
y: -52,
width: 104,
height: 104,
drawBorder: true
});
layer.draw();
}
init();

This is a bug of KineticJS.
You may use this workaround:
Kinetic.Arc.prototype._useBufferCanvas = function() {
return false;
};
http://jsfiddle.net/gm2FT/6/
If a lot of my drawings are going to be within a particular area of my larger canvas (in this case, in the center), is there a way to just say that you're working within that particular 'sub-canvas' instead of having to add/subtract the margins every time you want to draw? It just makes my code look a lot more complicated every time I'm specifying coordinates.
You can change the coordinates' origin using translate().
First, save the original origin using save(). Then, find the origin that suits the centre of your screen's drawing area and call translate(x, y). Do your drawing, and then use restore() to get your previous origin back.
jsFiddle.
Kinetic.js, a popular library for Canvas allows you to create a Group layer. You can specify the x, y coordinates, height and width of this Group. You can also add shapes and draw other things within this group.
Here's and example:
var stage = new Kinetic.Stage({
container: 'container',
width: 578,
height: 200
});
var shapesLayer = new Kinetic.Layer();
/*
* create a group which will be used to combine
* multiple simple shapes. Transforming the group will
* transform all of the simple shapes together as
* one unit
*/
var group = new Kinetic.Group({
x: 220,
y: 40,
rotationDeg: 20
});
var colors = ['red', 'orange', 'yellow'];
for(var n = 0; n < 3; n++) {
// anonymous function to induce scope
(function() {
var i = n;
var box = new Kinetic.Rect({
x: i * 30,
y: i * 18,
width: 100,
height: 50,
name: colors[i],
fill: colors[i],
stroke: 'black',
strokeWidth: 4
});
group.add(box);
})();
}
shapesLayer.add(group);
stage.add(shapesLayer);
Here's a tutorial on how to add Groups
You can use drawimage to draw an offscreen canvas to a certain part of another canvas.
Create a new canvas object and draw all your stuff to that. In the end draw that canvas to your onscreen canvas with drawimage at some coordinates.
