I have used a Bubble Chart on Chart.js to create sliders to show comparable performance and they currently look a bit like this:
What am I trying to do
I want to add data labels just above / in my 'bubbles' with my values in. Much like the '10' you can see on each bubble here.
What have I done to achieve this
This is not standard Chart.js functionality but I found this post which was discussing a similar issue for bar / line charts.
I've installed the plugin that post suggested but the data label it shows is for the radius of the bubble and I want to it to be the x-axis of the bubble.
I've also tried to use the code from some of the answers on that post, but with absolutely no luck.

I've managed to find the answer to this question, basically by taking apart the bubble chart example from the chartjs-plugin-datalabels plugin.
Below is a working example. Pay attention to the section in options that says 'plugin'.

If all you want to do is changing the label, there is an easier solution. From the docs of chartjs-plugin-datalabels:
Data values are converted to string ('' + value). If value is an object, the following rules apply first:
value = value.label if defined and not null
else value = value.r if defined and not null
else value = 'key[0]: value[key[0]], key[1]: value[key[1]], ...'
Therefore, it is sufficient to specify a label in your data points:
data: [{ x: 78.7, y: 0, r: 10, name: "Performance", label: `${Math.round(x)}` }],

I am experimenting with Chart.js to build radar charts. I mastered the basics (see basic chart below), but I would like to use the x y coordinates of the graph to place texts directly on the canvas.
After some digging, I found out that it is not possible to use getValueForPixel or getPixelForTick in a radar chart. See this github issue. In the connecting thread, a new method getValueForDistanceFromCenter is introduced.
As I understand it, it would be possible to calculate the distance from the center with this method, and use it to get coordinates. I searched the Chart.js documentation and other sites, but cannot find any code examples or information on how to implement this.
Can somebody point me in the right direction how to implement the method in the code?
var data = {
labels: ["Ball Skills", "Shooting", "Physical"],
datasets: [{
label: [`ikke`, `jij`],
backgroundColor: "rgba(38,120,255,0.2)",
borderColor: "rgba(38,120,255, 1)",
data: [90, 90, 90]
}]
};
var options = {
responsive: true,
tooltips: false,
title: {
text: 'Basic example',
display: true,
position: `bottom`,
},
scale: {
angleLines: {
display: true
},
ticks: {
suggestedMin: 0,
suggestedMax: 100,
stepSize: 25,
maxTicksLimit: 11,
display: false,
}
},
legend: {
labels: {
padding: 10,
fontSize: 14,
lineHeight: 30,
},
},
};
var myChart = new Chart(document.getElementById("chart"), {
type: 'radar',
data: data,
options: options
});
The radialLinear scale (in version 2.9.4 that I have seen your are using version 2) there is the method getValueForDistanceFromCenter(value) to get the distance from center but there is another method getPointPositionForValue(index, value) which can provide you the point at a specif index of your data.
To use them and to draw what you want on chart using those points, you need to implement a plugin.
In the below snippet, I'm drawing a rect between the points at a specific value.
const ctx = document.getElementById("myChart");
const data = {
labels: ["Ball Skills", "Shooting", "Physical"],
datasets: [{
label: [`ikke`, `jij`],
backgroundColor: "rgba(38,120,255,0.2)",
borderColor: "rgba(38,120,255, 1)",
data: [50, 50, 50]
}]
};
const options = {
responsive: true,
tooltips: false,
title: {
text: 'Basic example',
display: true,
position: `bottom`,
},
scale: {
angleLines: {
display: true
},
ticks: {
suggestedMin: 0,
suggestedMax: 100,
stepSize: 25,
maxTicksLimit: 11,
display: false,
}
},
legend: {
labels: {
padding: 10,
fontSize: 14,
lineHeight: 30,
},
},
};
const plugin = {
id: 'getDistance',
afterDraw(chart) {
const c = chart.ctx;
const rScale = chart.scale;
c.save();
chart.data.datasets[0].data.forEach(function(item, index) {
const point = rScale.getPointPositionForValue(0.5 + index, 50);
c.beginPath();
c.fillStyle = 'red';
c.fillRect(point.x - 5, point.y - 5, 10, 10);
c.fill();
});
c.restore();
}
};
const myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'radar',

});

I am trying to remove the grid lines on the Radar chart on chart.js v2 for react.
Desired Result
but keeping the outermost line while removing the inner lines and numbers
I have attempted to use the following code but it only returns a runtime error saying "category" is not a registered scale.
const options = {
scales: {
x: {
grid: {
display: false
}
},
y: {
grid: {
display: false
}
}
}
}
This can be done through the following options.
scale: {
ticks: {
stepSize: 1,
callback: (v, i, values) => i + 1 < values.length ? '' : v
},
gridLines: {
color: [0, 0, 0, 0, '#ccc']
}
}
For further details, please consult the Styling page from the Chart.js v2.9.4 documentation.
Please take a look at below runnable code and see how it works. Note that it uses a generic approach for defining gridLines.color.
const labels = ['Things 1', 'Things 2', 'Things 3', 'Things 4', 'Things 5'];
const data = [0, 3, 5, 2, 5];
const max = Math.ceil(Math.max(...data));
new Chart('radar-chart', {
type: 'radar',
data: {
labels: labels,
datasets: [{
data: data,
fill: true,
backgroundColor: 'rgba(0, 0, 255,0.2)',
borderColor: 'rgb(0, 0, 255)'
}]
},
options: {
legend: {
display: false
},
scale: {
ticks: {
stepSize: 1,
max: max,
callback: (v, i, values) => i + 1 < values.length ? '' : v
},
gridLines: {
color: Array.from(Array(max).keys()).map((v, i) => i + 1 < max ? 0 : '#ccc')
}
}
}
});

From the error you are getting it seems like you are using Chart.js V3 and not V2. To get what you want you need to import and register everything if you want to use treeshaking, I suggest you do this at the latest part and for development import everything like so:
import Chart from 'chart.js/auto';
To hide and get the result what you want your config needs to look like this:
const labels = ['Things 1', 'Things 1', 'Things 1', 'Things 1', 'Things 1'];
const data = [0, 3, 5, 2, 3];
new Chart('radar-chart', {
type: 'radar',
data: {
labels: labels,
datasets: [{
data: data,
fill: true,
backgroundColor: 'rgba(0, 0, 255,0.2)',
borderColor: 'rgb(0, 0, 255)'
}]
},
options: {
plugins: {
legend: {
display: false
}
},
scales: {
r: {
ticks: {
stepSize: 1,
callback: (v, i, values) => i + 1 < values.length ? '' : v
},
grid: {
color: data.map((v, i) => i + 1 < data.length ? 0 : '#ccc')
}
}
}
}
});

Notice that I specify a r scale instead of x and y
I am trying to make a chart which has years along the x-axis and dollar amounts along the y-axis. I finally got close to what I'm looking for, but I found that because the x coordinates are numbers, ChartJS is putting commas in them which looks really strange for years.
After some digging, I used the callbacks. options.plugin.tooltip.callbacks.label worked to let me remove commas in the tooltips, but when I use options.scales.x[0].ticks.callback to try to fix the labels on the bottom, not only does it not work, but I don't see the console.log statement in their ever being printed so it seems it's not even calling the callback. I've tried several variations of how to do the callback based on what I found online and on Stack Overflow which I think correspond to the different ways ChartJS did this in different versions. (I'm on version 3.5.1.)
Then, I realized that... none of the options under options.scales appear to have any effect. I change the min, the title, the tick settings (color to red, callback, etc.) and it has no effect. (This also explains why I was having trouble when using the line chart and had to switch to scatter; apparently type: 'linear' wasn't being picked up nor did it do anything different when I set it to type: 'date' or whatever the exact working was for that.)
Meanwhile, the other options like options.showLine or options.elements do have an effect and I'm seeing the chart and not getting any errors in the console. So, it is picking up the options, just ignoring everything I have in options.scales.
Here is the relevant code:
// Sample data added to make this example self-contained
// This is my internal data format
let data = {
"Series1": [ {x: 2001, y: 100 }, {x: 2002, y: 110 }, {x: 2003, y: 107 }, ],
"Series2": [ {x: 2001, y: 107 }, {x: 2002, y: 102 }, {x: 2004, y: 95 }, ],
}

As described in the docs the scales are not arrays. All the scales are objects in the scale object.
So you will need to change your code to this:
options: {
scales: {
x: {
// x options
},
y: {
// y options
},
}
}
How can I move my labels on my x axes in between another x axes label. Nothing seems to work and I was unable to find anything on the docs. Is there a workaround? I'm using line chart time series.
https://www.chartjs.org/samples/latest/scales/time/financial.html
Currently, with the code I have its generating the figure below:
var cfg = {
elements:{
point: {
radius: 4
}
},
data: {
datasets: [
{
label: 'vsy',
backgroundColor: color(window.chartColors.red).alpha(0.5).rgbString(),

fill: false,
lineTension: 0,
borderWidth: 2
},
{

}

},
}],
yAxes: [{
gridLines: {
drawBorder: false
}
}]
},
tooltips: {

mode: 'index',
}
}
};
This is what I have now:
I want the labels on the x-axis to be on center instead of below the y axis grid line.
Thanks to uminder, with his comment it solves the issue but now I have a conflicting tooltip which lie on a same grid. When I hover to april line first point it shows me mar 30 which lies just above it and vice versa.
I fixed it by changing the mode to nearest but why is it activating the another point?
The option you're looking for is offsetGridLines.
If true, grid lines will be shifted to be between labels.
xAxes: [{
...
gridLines: {
offsetGridLines: true
}
In most cases, this produces the expected result. Unfortunately it doesn't work for time axes as documented in Chart.js issue #403. Thanks to Antti Hukkanen, there exists a workaround.
Please have a look at below runnable code snippet to see how it works.
function generateData() {
var unit = 'day';
function randomNumber(min, max) {
return Math.random() * (max - min) + min;
}
function randomPoint(date, lastClose) {
var open = randomNumber(lastClose * 0.95, lastClose * 1.05).toFixed(2);
var close = randomNumber(open * 0.95, open * 1.05).toFixed(2);
return {
t: date.valueOf(),
y: close
};
}
var date = moment().subtract(1, 'years');
var now = moment();
var data = [];
for (; data.length < 600 && date.isBefore(now); date = date.clone().add(1, unit).startOf(unit)) {
data.push(randomPoint(date, data.length > 0 ? data[data.length - 1].y : 30));
}
return data;
}

For chartJs v3 you can use offset property:
scales: {
x: {
grid: {
offset: true
}
},
...
}
I created a bubble chart using ChartJs and populating data dynamically using Json.
See the code below.
for (var i = 0; i < response.data.length; i++) {
var point_data = [];
point_data.push({
x: response.data[i]['return_tickets'].toString(),
y: Math.round(response.data[i]['return_percentage']).toString(),
r: Math.round((response.data[i]['return_percentage'])).toString()
});
data.push({ label: response.data[i]['staff_name'], data: point_data, backgroundColor: getRandomColor(), hoverRadius:4 });
}
new Chart(document.getElementById("bubbleChart"), {
type: 'bubble',
data: {
datasets: data
},
options: {
title: {
display: true,
text: ''
}, scales: {
yAxes: [{
scaleLabel: {
display: true,
labelString: "Return Tickets %"
}
}],
xAxes: [{
scaleLabel: {
display: true,
labelString: "Return Tickets"
}
}]
}
}
});
It generates the desired chart as below
The problem is when I hover over any bubble the size of the bubble increases exponentially.
How to keep the size same ?
I'm setting the hoverRadius property of the dataset but it does nothing for me.
Problem is with your this line of code:
{ label: response.data[i]['staff_name'], data: point_data, backgroundColor: getRandomColor(), hoverRadius:4 }
This is not a valid JSON. Values must be either strings or arrays. Most probably issue is at label: response.data[i]['staff_name'] or in point_data (I can see you are making x, y and r values .toString() that maybe not required). Check it again. Create a valid JSON and then try by setting hoverRadius: 0, it will work.
Setting hoverRadius: 0 working fine for me. Bubble size will not change on mouse over if you set hoverRadius: 0.
Below is working example:
var chart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'bubble',
data: {
datasets: [{
label: 'Bubble',
data: [{
x: 5,
y: 55,
r: 27.5
}],
backgroundColor: 'rgba(0, 119, 290, 0.6)',
hoverRadius: 0
}]
},
options: {
tooltips: {
callbacks: {
label: function(t, d) {
return d.datasets[t.datasetIndex].label +
': (Day:' + t.xLabel + ', Total:' + t.yLabel + ')';
}
}
}
}
});

I have already faced the same issue also fixed it by typecasting for every x,y & z. I just convert it to float
'x' => (float) $x_axis_value,
'y' => (float) $y_axis_value,
'r' => (float) $radious_value,
