I tried to create Column Charts (Google Charts) with automatically generated vertical axis and one special, additional, featured, vertical axis set by me (custom vertical axis).
I painted this picture to show what I mean:
..and this is my code without custom axis:
google.load("visualization", "1.1", {packages: ["corechart"]});
google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
function drawChart() {
var dataTable = new google.visualization.DataTable();
dataTable.addColumn('string', 'Col.name');
dataTable.addColumn('number', 'Stage 1');
dataTable.addColumn('number', 'Stage 2');
dataTable.addColumn('number', 'Stage 3');
dataTable.addRows([
['Current quarter', 0, 0, 1300],
['Annual summary', 300, 600, 1300]
]);
var options = {
isStacked: true,
};
new google.visualization.ColumnChart(document.getElementById('chart_div')).draw(dataTable, options);
}
demo: http://jsfiddle.net/cichy380/QjQNX/1004/
I cannot find any solution in Google Charts Documentation.
I found only vAxis.ticks option, but it replaces the automatically generated axis!

I'm having problems formatting the axes of material charts.
Using "classic" line chart if I would like to format my vertical axis with a dollar sign, I would do
{vAxes: { 0: {title: 'Amount',format: '$#,##'}}}
Making it look like so:
I would've thought I could change to {axes: {y: {Amount: {format:'$#,##', label:'Amount'} } } } after reading what little docs exist for the material charts, but this didn't work at all.
Also, I have date on the horizontal axis, and the default formatting is sh*t! I can't figure out how to override that formatting either. Note this is on the axis it self I'm trying to format.
With the horizontal I tried setting hAxis: {format:'YYYY-MM-DD'} but that didn't work.
My main question would be: Does anyone know of a complete documentation of the material charts? The one I've been using is this.
Second question: How do I format the values on the axes?
the options simply are not available on Material charts...
see --> Tracking Issue for Material Chart Feature Parity #2143
when using a Core chart instead, there is an option that will get the chart "close" to Material chart...
theme: 'material'
see following working snippet...
google.charts.load('current', {
callback: drawChart,
packages: ['corechart']
});
function drawChart() {
var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addColumn('date','Date');
data.addColumn('number','Value');
data.addRows([
[new Date(2017, 1, 12), 250],
[new Date(2017, 1, 13), 200],
[new Date(2017, 1, 14), 150]
]);
var options = {
hAxis: {
format: 'yyyy-MM-dd'
},
theme: 'material',
vAxis: {
format: '$#,##',
title: 'Amount'
}
};
var chart = new google.visualization.LineChart(document.getElementById('chart_div'));
chart.draw(data, options);
}

I'm using a ColumnChart to represent the elevation in a map, as suggested by Google.
However, the columns are separated by spaces, and that renders ugly white spaces between the
columns, like in Google's own example:
https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/elevation-paths
Is there a way to tell the column chart to make columns that fill up the whole space? I would like something like this:
http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4I8oi3WqY5o/UIZnzbXql_I/AAAAAAAAAcE/GO4wl6I2-lM/s1600/Charts.png
I suspect that the only way is with lots of points.
My code:
var option = {
legend: 'none',
backgroundColor: 'transparent',
colors: ["#C9CFF5"],
titleColor: '#C9CFF5',
focusBorderColor: '#00AA00',
titleY: 'Elevation (m)',
bar: { groupWidth: '100%' }
}
// Build data
var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addColumn('string', 'Sample');
data.addColumn('number', 'Elevation (m):');
for (var i = 0; i < trackmarks.length; i++) {
data.addRow(['', trackaltis[i]]);
}
// Draw the chart using the data within its DIV.
chart = new google.visualization.ColumnChart(document.getElementById('elevation_chart'));
chart.draw(data, option);
My code is pretty standard: same as Google's, same result.
Thanks!
You can specify option:
bar: {groupWidth: "100%"}
bar.groupWidth: Percentage of the available width for each group (e.g. '20%'), where '100%' means that groups have no space between them
Update: That example uses old version of column charts which loads package columnchart
google.load("visualization", "1", {packages:["columnchart"]});
The latest code for column chart is loaded using corechart:
google.load('visualization', '1', {packages: ['corechart']});
Change that and example should work as expected without spaces.
I am using Google Chart API to create chart for values which goes from 1 to millions.
Problem
The bars which are representing smaller values (ex: less than 50 or so) are invisible on graph and no way I can see what values correspond to certain x-axis.
This would be solved if I can somehow print y-axis values on top of bars.But, I couldn't find any mention in the API doc on how to do it.
There is similar problem here, but it doesn't answers my question.

There are some other more than year old unanswered questions here, I am hoping someone might have found a solution or a workaround by now, that is why asking this question again.

How to show values on the the top of columns Google Chart API
Can you show me how to achieve what I want using How can I customize this Google Bar Chart? ?
Check out Andrew Gallant's JSFiddle here:
http://jsfiddle.net/asgallant/QjQNX/
It uses a clever hack of a combo chart to accomplish what I think you're looking for.
google.load("visualization", "1", {packages: ["corechart"]});
google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
function drawChart() {
var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addColumn('string', 'Name');
data.addColumn('number', 'Value');
data.addColumn({type: 'string', role: 'annotation'});
data.addRows([
['Foo', 53, 'Foo text'],
['Bar', 71, 'Bar text'],
['Baz', 36, 'Baz text'],
['Cad', 42, 'Cad text'],
['Qud', 87, 'Qud text'],
['Pif', 64, 'Pif text']
]);
var view = new google.visualization.DataView(data);
view.setColumns([0, 1, 1, 2]);
var chart = new google.visualization.ComboChart(document.getElementById('chart_div'));
chart.draw(view, {
height: 400,
width: 600,
series: {
0: {
type: 'bars'
},
1: {
type: 'line',
color: 'grey',
lineWidth: 0,
pointSize: 0,
visibleInLegend: false
}
},
vAxis: {
maxValue: 100
}
});
}
I had some setbacks using annotation and the invisible line (for example, having it displayed in the tooltip as another series).
I've made a hack to the ComboChart (could work with BarChart and ColumnChart as well, with a couple of changes) to insert the labels into the SVG.

Is it possible to develop a threshold with Google Charts?
I have a Google combo chart with 5 columns. In theory, I wanted to use the addRange formatter function to change the color of the 2nd column if it was under 50. (Basically it's a motivation tool. Your daily goal is to make atleast 50 calls. If you do not, the chart shows up as red, if you do, then it is the default color)
This is my current code that creates the chart, just not the formatting. Thanks.
// Load the Visualization API and the piechart package.
google.load('visualization', '1.0', {'packages':['corechart']});
// Set a callback to run when the Google Visualization API is loaded.
google.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);
// Callback that creates and populates a data table,
// instantiates the pie chart, passes in the data and
// draws it.
function drawChart() {
var data = new google.visualization.DataTable();
data.addColumn('string', 'Rep');
data.addColumn('number', 'Yesterday');
data.addColumn('number', 'Last 7');
data.addColumn('number', 'Last 30');
data.addColumn('number', 'The Bar');
$("#data-table thead th").each(function(){
var initials = $(this).text();
var yesterday = parseInt($("." + initials + ".Yesterday").text());
var seven = parseInt($("." + initials + ".seven").text());
var thirty = parseInt($("." + initials + ".thirty").text());
data.addRow([initials, yesterday, seven, thirty, 50]);
});
// Set chart options
var title = $("#data-table caption").text();
var options = {'title':title,
seriesType: 'bars',
series: {3: {type: "line"}},
hAxis: {title: 'Rep'},
vAxis: {title: 'Outbound Calls'}
};
var formatter = new google.visualization.TableColorFormat();
formatter.addRange(50,0, 'red', '#000');
formatter.format(data, 1);
// Instantiate and draw our chart, passing in some options.
var chart = new google.visualization.ComboChart(document.getElementById('call-log'));
chart.draw(data, options);
}
The easiest way to do this is to do a quick check on your data, and set a variable for the color of series two based on what the value of that column is.
So currently you have the following options code:
var options = {'title':title,
seriesType: 'bars',
series: {3: {type: "line"}},
hAxis: {title: 'Rep'},
vAxis: {title: 'Outbound Calls'}
};
If you change this slightly, you can make series 2 colored based on a variable:
var options = {'title':title,
seriesType: 'bars',
series: {
3: {type: "line"}
// set the color of column 2 (series #1) via variable
1: {color: colorvar}
},
hAxis: {title: 'Rep'},
vAxis: {title: 'Outbound Calls'}
};
Then you can just create a javascript function to determine what the value for column 2 is, and color appropriately:
var colorvar = "#FF0000";
if (data.getValue(0,1) >= 50)
colorvar = "#000000";
This way, if the value is under 50, it will be read. Otherwise it will change to black. Then when you create the options, it will use whatever color is dictated by this function. That way you can color based on the value in column 2.
