I am trying to show the values of the pie slices inside the pie chart with Chart.JS v2.3
I've tried various ones to see if I could get them to work
Chart.js v2: How to make tooltips always appear on pie chart?
When I try this, the tooltips are still hover over.
Tried this as well and this did not work.
options: {
events: false,
animation: {
duration: 0
},
onAnimationComplete: function () {
var self = this;
var elementsArray = [];
Chart.helpers.each(self.data.datasets, function (dataset, datasetIndex) {
Chart.helpers.each(dataset.metaData, function (element, index) {
var tooltip = new Chart.Tooltip({
_chart: self.chart,
_data: self.data,
_options: self.options,
_active: [element]
}, self);
tooltip.update();
tooltip.transition(Chart.helpers.easingEffects.linear).draw();
}, self);
}, self);
}
},
If I try one of the resolutions that use a plugin service it fails with the following error:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'register' of undefined
Here is the full code I'm trying to work with:
var data = {
labels: ["People", "Process", "Technology"],
datasets: [
{
data: [10,20,30],
backgroundColor: [
"#FF6384",
"#36A2EB",
"#FFCE56"
],
hoverBackgroundColor: [
"#FF6384",
"#36A2EB",
"#FFCE56"
]
}
]
};
// render chart
Chart.pluginService.register({
beforeRender: function(chart) {
if (chart.config.options.showAllTooltips) {
// create an array of tooltips
// we can't use the chart tooltip because there is only one tooltip per chart
chart.pluginTooltips = [];
chart.config.data.datasets.forEach(function(dataset, i) {
chart.getDatasetMeta(i)
.data.forEach(function(sector, j) {
chart.pluginTooltips.push(new Chart.Tooltip({
_chart: chart.chart,
_chartInstance: chart,
_data: chart.data,
_options: chart.options,
_active: [sector]
},
chart));
});
});
// turn off normal tooltips
chart.options.tooltips.enabled = false;
}
},
afterDraw: function(chart, easing) {
if (chart.config.options.showAllTooltips) {
// we don't want the permanent tooltips to animate, so don't do anything till the animation runs atleast once
if (!chart.allTooltipsOnce) {
if (easing !== 1)
return;
chart.allTooltipsOnce = true;
}
// turn on tooltips
chart.options.tooltips.enabled = true;
Chart.helpers.each(chart.pluginTooltips,
function(tooltip) {
tooltip.initialize();
tooltip.update();
// we don't actually need this since we are not animating tooltips
tooltip.pivot();
tooltip.transition(easing).draw();
});
chart.options.tooltips.enabled = false;
}
}
});
var ctx = document.getElementById("pieChart").getContext("2d");
var myPieChart = new Chart(ctx,
{
type: 'pie',
data: data,
options: {
showAllTooltips: true
}
});
I'm also trying to avoid having to use chartNEW.js
Also if it matters this is being done in Asp.Net with MVC.
I am drawing graph on UI using ChartJS 2.0. And I am able to render a Pie Chart. But I want the mouse-hover to show the data along with a "%" sign. How can I append % So if on mouse hover I am getting Rented: 93 I would like to see Rented: 93 %. Kindly guide me.
Below is what I have now:
var sixthSubViewModel = Backbone.View.extend({
template: _.template($('#myChart6-template').html()),
render: function() {
$(this.el).html(this.template());
var ctx = this.$el.find('#pieChart')[0];
var data = {
datasets: [{
data: this.model.attributes.currMonthOccAvailVac,
backgroundColor: [
"#455C73",
"#BDC3C7",
"#26B99A",
],
label: 'My dataset' // for legend
}],
labels: [
"Rented",
"Vacant",
"Unavailable",
]
};
var pieChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'pie',
data: data
});
},
initialize: function(){
this.render();
}
});
Understanding:
I understand that currently hover takes the label and adds a colon and then adds data to it. So if label = Rented, Data = 93 I will see something like Rented: 93 on mouse-hover. How can I change text of mouse-hover to display Rented: 93%. Below is the image of what I have till now on mouse-hover.
I understand that I need to add one "options" in the pie chart. But I am not sure how to do that. Please help me.
You can edit what is displayed in your tooltip with the callbacks.label method in your chart options, and then simply add a "%" to the default string using :
tooltipItems -- See documentation for more information (scroll up a bit to "Tooltip Item Interface")
data -- Where the datasets and labels are stored.
var ctx = document.getElementById("canvas");
var data = {
datasets: [{
data: [93, 4, 3],
backgroundColor: [
"#455C73",
"#BDC3C7",
"#26B99A",
],
label: 'My dataset' // for legend
}],
labels: [
"Rented",
"Vacant",
"Unavailable",
]
};
var pieChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'pie',
data: data,
options: {
tooltips: {
callbacks: {
label: function(tooltipItems, data) {
return data.labels[tooltipItems.index] +
" : " +
data.datasets[tooltipItems.datasetIndex].data[tooltipItems.index] +
' %';
}
}
}
}
});

I have created a donut chart. I want to display the tooltip always in the donut chart along with the legends.
I have followed this stack overflow question.
Question which explain the tooltip to be shown always
I have followed the answer and created a doughnut chart and tried to show the tooltip always.
it works fine, however it is not showing all the label, esp. when you have multiple data with 0 value.It just overwrite the label.
my label and values are
"Red" -0,
"Green" -0 &
"Yellow"-100
here is shows tooltip for "Yellow-100" and "Green-0", i think it is overwriting on top of "Red-0". How to show tooltip for "Red-0" and "Green-0" both together.
html:
<canvas id="canvas"></canvas>
Javascript:
var ctx = document.getElementById("canvas").getContext("2d");
var data = {

doughnut chart 0 data tooltip is not shown for all
Chart Version : 2.1.0
please help.
you could use the tooltip callbacks in order to check which data is inside and place it on a different position.
For example you could return the red label in the title and the green one in the footer:
callbacks: {
title: function(tooltipItems, data) {
return (HERE YOUR CONDITION FOR FILTERING GREEN OR RED);
},
label: function(tooltipItem, data) {
//remove body, show data only in title
},
footer: function(tooltipItems, data) {
return (HERE YOUR CONDITION FOR FILTERING GREEN OR RED);
}
}
I've just started working with Chart.js, and I am getting very frustrated very quickly. I have my stacked bar chart working, but I can't get the click "events" to work.
I have found a comment on GitHub by nnnick from Chart.js stating to use the function getBarsAtEvent, even though this function cannot be found in the Chart.js documentation at all (go ahead, do a search for it). The documentation does mention the getElementsAtEvent function of the chart reference, but that is for Line Charts only.
I set an event listener (the right way) on my canvas element:
canv.addEventListener('click', handleClick, false);
...yet in my handleClick function, chart.getBarsAtEvent is undefined!
Now, in the Chart.js document, there is a statement about a different way to register the click event for the bar chart. It is much different than nnnick's comment on GitHub from 2 years ago.
In the Global Chart Defaults you can set an onClick function for your chart. I added an onClick function to my chart configuration, and it did nothing...
So, how the heck do I get the on-click-callback to work for my bar chart?!
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
P.S.: I am not using the master build from GitHub. I tried, but it kept screaming that require is undefined and I was not ready to include CommonJS just so that I could use this chart library. I would rather write my own dang charts. Instead, I downloaded and am using the Standard Build version that I downloaded straight from the link at the top of the documentation page.
EXAMPLE: Here is an example of the configuration I am using:
var chart_config = {
type: 'bar',
data: {
labels: ['One', 'Two', 'Three'],
datasets: [
{
label: 'Dataset 1',
backgroundColor: '#848484',
data: [4, 2, 6]
},
{
label: 'Dataset 2',
backgroundColor: '#848484',
data: [1, 6, 3]
},
{
label: 'Dataset 3',
backgroundColor: '#848484',
data: [7, 5, 2]
}
]
},
options: {
title: {
display: false,
text: 'Stacked Bars'
},
tooltips: {
mode: 'label'
},
responsive: true,
maintainAspectRatio: false,
scales: {
xAxes: [
{
stacked: true
}
],
yAxes: [
{
stacked: true
}
]
},
onClick: handleClick
}
};
I managed to find the answer to my question by looking through the Chart.js source code.
Provided at line 3727 of Chart.js, Standard Build, is the method .getElementAtEvent. This method returns me the "chart element" that was clicked on. There is sufficent data here to determine what data to show in a drill-down view of the dataset clicked on.
On the first index of the array returned by chart.getElementAtEvent is a value _datasetIndex. This value shows the index of the dataset that was clicked on.
The specific bar that was clicked on, I believe, is noted by the value _index. In my example in my question, _index would point to One in chart_config.data.labels.
My handleClick function now looks like this:
function handleClick(evt)
{
var activeElement = chart.getElementAtEvent(evt);
..where chart is the reference of the chart created by chart.js when doing:
chart = new Chart(canv, chart_config);
The specific set of data that was selected by the click can therefore be found as:
chart_config.data.datasets[activeElement[0]._datasetIndex].data[activeElement[0]._index];
And there you have it. I now have a datapoint that I can build a query from to display the data of the bar that was clicked on.
AUGUST 7TH, 2021. UPDATE
There is now a method for what we are looking for. Take a look at here
Hi this is the click event under options which is getting values from x and y-axis
onClick: function(c,i) {
e = i[0];
console.log(e._index)
var x_value = this.data.labels[e._index];
var y_value = this.data.datasets[0].data[e._index];
console.log(x_value);
console.log(y_value);
}
I found this solution at https://github.com/valor-software/ng2-charts/issues/489
public chartClicked(e: any): void {
if (e.active.length > 0) {
const chart = e.active[0]._chart;
const activePoints = chart.getElementAtEvent(e.event);
if ( activePoints.length > 0) {
// get the internal index of slice in pie chart
const clickedElementIndex = activePoints[0]._index;
const label = chart.data.labels[clickedElementIndex];
// get value by index
const value = chart.data.datasets[0].data[clickedElementIndex];
console.log(clickedElementIndex, label, value)
}
}
}
You can use onClick like this.
var worstCells3GBoxChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'bar',
data: {
labels: lbls,
datasets: [{
label: 'Worst Cells by 3G',
data: datas,
backgroundColor: getColorsUptoArray('bg', datas.length),
borderColor: getColorsUptoArray('br', datas.length),
borderWidth: 1
}]
},
options: {
legend: {
display: false
},
scales: {
yAxes: [{
ticks: {
beginAtZero: true
}
}]
},
onClick: function (e) {
debugger;
var activePointLabel = this.getElementsAtEvent(e)[0]._model.label;
alert(activePointLabel);
}
}
});
Chartjs V3.4.1
This is what worked for me in v3, after looking at solutions for older versions:
const onClick = (event, clickedElements) => {
if (clickedElements.length === 0) return
const { dataIndex, raw } = clickedElements[0].element.$context
const barLabel = event.chart.data.labels[dataIndex]
...
}
raw is the value of the clicked bar.
barLabel is the label of the clicked bar.
You need to pass the onClick to the bar chart config:
const barConfig = {
...
options: {
responsive: true,
onClick,
...
}
}
Well done! This seems to return the data value being charted though, which in many cases might be possible to appear more than once, thus making it unclear what was clicked on.
This will return the actual data label of the bar being clicked on. I found this more useful when drilling down into a category.
chart_config.data.labels[activeElement[0]._index]
I was able to make this work in another way.
Might not be supported, but sometimes, I find that neither the label nor the value is adequate to get me the necessary information to populate a drill-through.
So what I did was add a custom set of attributes to the data:
var ctx = document.getElementById("cnvMyChart").getContext("2d");
if(theChart != null) {theChart.destroy();}
theChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: typ,
data: {
labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"],
datakeys: ["thefirstone","thesecondone","thethirdone","thefourthone","thefifthone","thesixthone"],
datasets: [{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
...etc
Then when I need to push the drillthrough key into another ajax call, I was able to get it with this:
var theDrillThroughKey = theChart.config.data.datakeys[activePoints[0]._index];
So I'm really not sure that it's appropriate to be adding custom elements into the data for the Chart, but it's working so far in Chrome, IE and Firefox. I needed to be able to put more information into the drillthrough than I really wanted displayed.

Thoughts?
I had the same problem with multiple datasets, and used this workaround:
var clickOnChart = function(dataIndex){
...
}
var lastHoveredIndex = null;
var chart_options = {
...
tooltips: {
...
callbacks: {
label: function(tooltipItem, chart) {
var index = tooltipItem.datasetIndex;
var value = chart.datasets[index].data[0];
var label = chart.datasets[index].label;
lastHoveredIndex = index;
return value + "€";
}
}
},
onClick:function(e, items){
if ( items.length == 0 ) return; //Clicked outside any bar.
clickOnChart(lastHoveredIndex);
}
}
Let's say that you declared a chart using a method like so:
window.myBar = new Chart({chart_name}, {
type: xxx,
data: xxx,
events: ["click"],
options: {
...
}
});
A good way of declaring onclick events would involve listening for the canvas click, like so:
({chart_name}.canvas).onclick = function(evt) {
var activePoints = myBar.getElementsAtEvent(evt);
// let's say you wanted to perform different actions based on label selected
if (activePoints[0]._model.label == "label you are looking for") { ... }
}
In the chart options for Chart.js v3.5.1 which is latest
Check below sample code
let enterpriseChartOptions = {
responsive:true,
maintainAspectRatio: false,
onClick: (c,i) => {
console.log('Get the underlying label for click,', c.chart.config._config.data.labels[i[0].index]);
},

// Show the label
return val < 1 ? "All good" : (val < 2 && val >=1) ? "Warning": val === 2 ? "Critical" : "";
