Highcharts. How to series name on line of area? [duplicate] - javascript

I want to add a data label to specific point in the 'Area' chart. I'm using 'Highchart' for making graph. I want a data label in chart design as following image. What should I try ? I tried dataLabel defined in 'line' chart but it applies dataLabel to each point in the chart. I want it to be applied for specific point. Also, it should not show value of that point as a dataLabel but it should show series.name on that point.

For the relevant point in your data use the object notation and enabled data labels. You can use format and formatter to display the desired information.
Example of your series would be:
series: [{
name: 'My series name',
data: [5, 10, 30, 100, 200, 300, 600,
{
y: 900,
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
format: '{series.name}'
}
},
700, 400, 100]
}]

Create chart using one of the given javascript libraries

I'm trying to create a chart that looks like this using ChartJS, D3.js, NVD3 or c3.js but I'm having trouble. Is this even possible with any of these libraries?
You can use C3.js bar charts and hide some of the x-axis but that may require extra JS to do so unless you make the x axis label ' '. If you want all the bars the same colour you'll need to use CSS (unless you declare a pattern). It will not be generated to look identical to that in C3.js without extra manipulation of the code.
You can edit data around on https://c3js.org/samples/chart_bar.html to see how your data would look if you would like to.
You can add
color: {
pattern: ['#0e9999','#06754b','#eb7a02','#9734b0']
},
To your generation of the chart with whatever pattern of colours you would like (you can have as many or as few colours as you would like. I just happened to need 4 for my code)
In your case you can do
color: {
pattern: ['#FFA500']
},
In data you can declare an 'x' to have your supplied x labels
data: {
x: 'x',
columns: [your data goes here including x labels],
type: 'bar'
}
I'm not sure about the other libraries but C3.js is essentially a wrapper for D3.js so anything that can be done in one is most likely theoretically possible in both. C3.js is just easier to understand the code for. (see: https://c3js.org/)
Update:
If this wasn't clear enough you can do:
var chart = c3.generate({
data: {
x: 'x',
columns: [
['x', '1',' .','3','. ','. ','6'],
['data1', 30, 200, 100, 400, 150, 250],
['data2', 130, 100, 140, 200, 150, 50]
],
type: 'bar'
},
axis: {
x: {
type: 'category',
}},
color: {
pattern: ['#FFA500']
},
bar: {
space: 0.05, //sets the gap between the bars
width: {ratio:1}
},
grid: { //the lines (remove if you didn't want grid lines)
y: {
show: true
},
x: {
show: true
}
},
legend: { //hides the legends
show: false
}
});
To do something similar to what you have (you'll need to edit the data to be the exact data you want but that'll be a simple edit on your part)
If you don't want dashed grid lines add:
.c3 .c3-grid line {
stroke-dasharray: 0!important;
stroke: #808080 !important;
}
to your CSS file
I use recharts with React. I think it's the best charting library out there.

Pie-like chart with a percentage of the slices being filled

I am trying to make chart, sort of like a pie chart, but with each slice being the same size, and having a percentage of it filled.
Something like this.
My question is similar to this one: Pie chart with different fill percentage.
But it is 4 years old so I thought I would ask again.
I have tried using Canvasjs, Google charts, and highcharts but none of them support anything similar. I also want to have the slices functioning as buttons that can rotate the chart, having the selected one being positioned in the bottom.
You can achieve that result in Highcharts. Each slice should be a different series with different size. Each series should have points in the number of the series, all points should be invisible except the one - also, it is needed for disabling ignoreHiddenPoint so empty space will be drawn.
For example, you have an array of points ['20%', '30%'] - you need to map the points to series array:
[{
size: '20%',
keys: ['y', 'visible'],
data: [[1/2, true], [1/2, false]]
}, {
size: '30%',
keys: ['y', 'visible'],
data: [[1/2, false], [1/2, true]]
}]
You also might create an additional series which will be the background of the pie
const backgroundSeries = [{
size: '100%',
data: [{y: 1, color: 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4)'}],
enableMouseTracking: false,
borderWidth: 0,
}];
For rotating the pie, you need to update startAngle property
chart.update({
plotOptions: {
pie: {
startAngle: startAngle
}
}
});

How to create legend for Plotlines with Highstock of Highcharts?

I have a Highstock graph with Plotlines here: http://jsfiddle.net/qd0rmazg/3/
I'd like to be able to have a legend of Plotlines where, similar to the legend of Series, upon a click Plotlines of a certain category can be made visible or hidden.
In my JSfiddle example, there are 2 categories of Plotlines. Is it possible to toggle the visibility of Plotlines per one category? I couldn't seem to find anything supporting this.
This is how I've created the Plotlines:
xAxis: {
plotLines: [{
value: Date.UTC(2016, 12, 29), // year, month, day
width: 1,
color: 'blue',
dashStyle: 'ShortDash',
label: {
text: 'Category 1',
},
}, {
value: Date.UTC(2016, 11, 12), // year, month, day
width: 1,
color: 'green',
dashStyle: 'Solid',
label: {
text: 'Category 2',
}]
}
As far as I know, there is no native HC legend for the plot lines. But, you can create your custom legend element on the page and use HC capabilities to show/hide plot lines as in their examples:
http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/library/pure/highcharts/highcharts/tree/master/samples/highcharts/members/axis-addplotline/
chart.xAxis[0].removePlotLine('plot-line-1');
chart.xAxis[0].addPlotLine({
....
id: 'plot-line-1'
});
As noted in my comment, there is a feature request here:
https://highcharts.uservoice.com/forums/55896-highcharts-javascript-api/suggestions/3009547-plotlines-on-legend
Please add your votes and comments.
Vladimir M provided a good solution to show/hide the plot lines with your own custom legend.
The other common approach is to use a line series as your plotLine, which gives you the benefit of the full series functionality.
Example series:
{
name: 'PlotLine',
type: 'line',
color: 'rgba(204,0,0,1)',
data: [25,25,25,25,25,25,25,25,25,25]
}
Fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/nh65m306/
If you need a vertical plot line, the data set up is slightly more complex but still quite feasible.
{{EDIT to demo vertical plot line:
First, you;d have to set a min/max for you y axis (could be done programmatically on chart load):
yAxis: {
min: 0,
max: 75,
maxPadding: 0
}
Then, you specify your data in [x,y] pairs, with the x values being your plotLine value, and the y values being your Y axis min and max:
data: [[4,0], [4,75]]
Updated fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/nh65m306/1/
With that method, you could add a series per plot line, or, if you want all of them to be the same legend and settings, you can add multiple by inserting null points between your desired lines:
data: [[4,0], [4,75], [5,null], [7,0],[7,75]]

disable hover on special slice of pie chart

I know how to disable hover on highcharts, and I edit the answer to disable hove on special slice as this demo, but it doesn't work.
I edit series attribute as the following:
series: [{
showInLegend: false,
type: 'pie',
name: 'Pie Chart',
data: [
['Mobile', 65], // first half of pie
{
name: 'Other',
y: 35,
tooltip: { enabled: false }
} // second half of pie
]
How can I disable hover for special slices on pie charts using highcharts ?
You were pretty close with your custom tooltip property idea. I personally rather using custom names as well, therefor instead of adding a tooltip data object, i'd use a custom property named tooltipDisabled:
{name: 'Other', y: 35, tooltipDisabled:true} // second half of pie
And then, using a tooltip formatter function (a callback function called when a point is hoverd, which is totally override-able), I'd discriminate the points with this property:
tooltip: {
useHTML:true,
formatter: function(){
return this.point.tooltipDisabled ? false : this.point.name +"<br><span style='font-size:18px;vertical-align:middle'>•</span>"+this.series.name+": <b>"+this.y+"</b>";
}
returning false, as you have probably guessed, disables the tooltip.
(as you can see I also added useHTML:true, so highcharts renders the bullet next to the point name.

Highcharts : Display the labels (min, max, median etc.) in boxplot

I have created a basic boxplot using highcharts and it shows me the values for maximum, max quartile, median, min quartile and minimum when I hover the mouse over the box plot. I want to somehow display these values in the plot itself beside each of the lines.
I checked out the api and found that "dataLabel" would help but this is not supported for the boxplot. Could someone enlighten me on how to achieve this?
Thanks.
Not possible out of the box, but as mentioned by Steve Gu achievable by scatter. You can even ignore the formatter and disable the marker alltogether:
{
series: [
{
type: 'scatter',
tooltip: {
enabled: false
},
dataLabels: {
format: '{key}',
enabled: true,
y: 0,
},
data: [{ x: 0, y: 975, name: '975'}],
marker: {
enabled: false,
}
}
]
}
just disable marker and set format to key.
Add another data series, which is a type of "Scatter" and apply the data labels to this series using Marker. The trick is to use the same fill color as your background color and 0 line width so the marker will not be visible and only the label will be shown.
{
name: 'Outlier',
color: 'white',
type: 'scatter',
data: [ // x, y positions where 0 is the first category
{
name: 'This is my label for the box',
x:0, //box index. first one is 0.
y:975 //it will be bigger than the maximum value of of the box
}
],
dataLabels : {
align: 'left',
enabled : true,
formatter : function() {
return this.point.name;
},
y: 10,
},
marker: {
fillColor: 'white',
lineWidth: 0,
lineColor: 'white'
}
}
Unfortunately this option is not supported, only what you can do is use renderer to add custom text inside chart, but I'm aware that it can be not comfortable solution. http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#Renderer.text()
