I am using highcharts to draw a column chart as following:
var chart;
var count = 0;
$(function () {
$(document).ready(function() {
chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'graph',
type: 'column',
margin: [ 50, 50, 100, 80]
},
title: {
text: 'Random Data'
},
xAxis: {
categories: [
'T1',
'T2'
],
startOnTick: true,
endOnTick: true,
labels: {
rotation: -45,
align: 'right',
style: {
fontSize: '13px',
fontFamily: 'Verdana, sans-serif'
}
}
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Y-Axis'
}
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return '<b>'+ this.x +'</b><br/>'+
'Tip is: '+ Highcharts.numberFormat(this.y, 1);
}
},
series: [{
name: 'Population',
data: [34.4, 21.8],
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
rotation: -90,
color: '#FFFFFF',
align: 'right',
x: 4,
y: 10,
style: {
fontSize: '13px',
fontFamily: 'Verdana, sans-serif'
}
}
}]
});
});
});
I added the following function in order to add new points to the chart
function addPoints(name,acc)
{
var series = chart.series[0];
series.addPoint(acc, false, true);
categories = chart.xAxis[0].categories;
categories.push(name+count);
count++;
chart.xAxis[0].setCategories(categories, false);
chart.redraw();
}
The problem is that everytime I add a new point, one column shifts out of the chart. I would like to keep all columns in the chart view, so when I add a new point the chart just zooms out.
Check it on JSFiddle
Thanks in Advance ....
addPoint (Object options, [Boolean redraw], [Boolean shift], [Mixed animation])
Add a point to the series after render time.
Parameters
options: Number|Array|Object
The point options. If options isa single number, a point with that y value is appended to the series.If it is an array, it will be interpreted as x and y values respectively, or inthe case of OHLC or candlestick, as [x, open, high, low, close]. If it is an object, advanced options as outlined under series.data are applied.
redraw: Boolean
Defaults to true. Whether to redraw the chart after the point is added. When adding more thanone point, it is highly recommended that the redraw option beset to false, and instead chart.redraw() is explicitly calledafter the adding of points is finished.
shift: Boolean
Defaults to false. When shift is true, one point is shifted off the start of the series as one is appended to the end. Use this option for live charts monitoring a value over time.
animation: Mixed
Defaults to true. When true, the graph will be animated with default animationoptions. The animation can also be a configuration object with properties durationand easing.
series.addPoint(acc, false, true);
/\ here's the problem, it should be false

I am working on a website which needs to show something on the chart (highchart) upon clicking of a button.
The issue is: when the page is first loaded, the label on the vertical axis can not be seen, no matter how big I set the margin for the chart. However, after the button is clicked for the first time, the labels can be seen and remains so.
There was no such problem before I set "reversed", "opposite" for xAxis and "reversed" for yAxis as true.
What causes this phenomenon and how can I solve this?
See the JSFiddle for detail. (There are some logic mistakes in the code which is irrelevant for my question.)
I just discovered that when I first load the JSFiddle, the vertical axis of the graph shows up with label; but when I click on "Run" additionally, the graph is refreshed with a vertical axis without label. Maybe I can simulate certain process which takes place when a JSFiddle is loaded to make sure that the vertical axis of the graph shows up with labels. But I am not sure how to do that.
Browser: Google Chrome Version 69.0.3497.92 (Official Build) (64-bit) (up to date)
My OS: Windows 10
Code for the generation of the chart:
function createColumnHorizChart(argMinY = minYAxis, argMaxY = maxYAxis) {
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: { //not to be changed lightly
renderTo: 'contr2',

shadow: false
}
},
series: [{
enableMouseTracking: false,
data: Array(7).fill(0)
}]
});
return chart;
}
So, it's only possible to reproduce on Windows platform. Could you provide us also with minified demo where the problem occurs? I'm asking because in current demo there are a lot of lines which are unnecessary.
Additionally, until we find the source of the problem, you can workaround it by calling this.reflow() in chart.events.load event handler.
chart: {
events: {
load: function() {
this.reflow()
}
}
}
API Reference: https://api.highcharts.com/class-reference/Highcharts.Chart#reflow
I'm not sure why but it works fine when you remove the marginLeft property or set it to 0.
I have been working on a project that uses highchart to draw multiple line charts. With that, I have already achieved some configuration (eg. x-axis crosshair, fixed tooltip, zooming) for my chart in accordance to the business requirements. As such, one requirement is that when x-axis crosshair moves from left to right (or vice versa) within the plotted chart, the selected values on y-axis and dates and time on x-axis will be displayed in the fixed tooltip.
Example:
Series CDT158 has a value of 100.46 (as shown in Chart 1) on 27 Apr 2017 20:49:48 pm. When I move the x-axis crosshair to the right, it jumps directly to the next point which has a value of 103.47 (as shown in Chart 2) on 27 Apr 2017 20:50:38 pm.
Is it possible when the crosshair passes through the series (from one point to the next point), the y-axis values between 100.46 and 103.47 as well the datetime values on x-axis will be rendered in the fixed tooltip? I also want to display the CDEP158 y-axis values simultaneously in the fixed tooltip. How can I achieve this?

}]
});
I'm pretty sure that this can be achieved through Highcharts but, my limited knowledge and experience in Highchart stops me to figure it out.
I have posted a sample fiddle that illustrate the above scenario.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
I am trying to customize stacked column chart like this
Here i did all the remaining things but i Don't know how to give that bar lines above every column........I need that bar lines in both positive and negative axis

Fiddle
To elaborate on Sebastian Bochan's helpful comment, here's an updated version of your fiddle with two "dummy" series to serve as the patterned background: https://jsfiddle.net/brightmatrix/hc8rLy18/2/
A few items to note:
There are two "dummy" series: one for the positive numbers and one for the negative numbers.
Both series have showInLegend and enableMouseTracking set to false so the user cannot interact with them.
Both series have stacking set to false so they will not be part of the "real" data you want to show.
Both series have zIndex set to 0. I explain why below the code block.
The code for the "dummy" series is as follows.
// background for positive values
obj = {};
obj["name"] = 'patternFill';
obj["data"] = [120, 120];
obj["color"] = 'url(#highcharts-default-pattern-3)';
obj["grouping"] = false;
obj["zIndex"] = 0;
obj["enableMouseTracking"] = false;
obj["stacking"] = false;
obj["showInLegend"] = false;
seriesforSeniorUPT.push(obj);
// background for negative values
obj = {};
obj["name"] = 'patternFill';
obj["data"] = [-80, -80];
obj["color"] = 'url(#highcharts-default-pattern-3)';
obj["grouping"] = false;
obj["zIndex"] = 0;
obj["enableMouseTracking"] = false;
obj["stacking"] = false;
obj["showInLegend"] = false;
seriesforSeniorUPT.push(obj);
For the three "real" data series, I set zIndex to 10 to they will appear over the "dummy" series we're using for our patterend backgrounds.
For all of the series, I set grouping to false so they will appear one atop the other, not next to one another.
Here's a screenshot of the output. I hope this is helpful!
I write because I go back to being stuck in a problem with Highcharts. I have a monthly chart that works fine except for one thing. The zoom level. The X axis is always shown me a value of 0 (today), so that the zoom level is incorrect. I am attaching a picture to try to explain it better. I need this column set in the graph.
I appreciate your help! Thank you!
The json returned by PHP is (correct results):
{"data":[[1401580800000,2],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0],[1400025600000,0]]}

EDIT: I need a graphic for month (user select), but, the white area and Xaxis only appers info for the month selected. The PHP file return a correct JSON chain, but highcharts not fit the columns fine. Sorry for my english!
The problem is with your JSON, where you have duplicated values for the same timestamp. Just remove them.
Then! You have unsorted data, it should be sorted ascending by timestamp.
After fixed, it works fine, see: http://jsfiddle.net/4nCx3/
var data = {
"data": [
[1400025600000, 0],
[1401580800000, 2]
]
};
I want to add the plot's legend name to the mouse over tool tip for a series line. I've used one of the solutions to this jqplot tooltip on bar chart.
Specifically I used the following function:
function tooltipContentEditor(str, seriesIndex, pointIndex, plot) {
// display series_label, x-axis_tick, y-axis value
return plot.series[seriesIndex]["label"] + ", " + plot.data[seriesIndex][pointIndex];
}
However, the problem I have is that it does not use the legend name 'My legend name' instead it will use the JQPlot default of 'Series 1' or 'Series 5' (number depending on series position).
The second problem is that I lose my date formatting once I start using the above function. So I get a number e.g. something like 123672378328 instead of it being converted to the format I specified in tickOptions.
My code to generate the chart is below:
var plot;
function buildChart(chartDivId, graphData, chartTitle, graphSeriesNames, labelNames) {
var id = "#" + chartDivId;
$(id).empty();
var seriesLine = { lineWidth:1, markerOptions: { show:false } };
plot = $.jqplot(chartDivId, graphData,
{
title: chartTitle,
axes:
{
xaxis:
{
label:'Date',
renderer:$.jqplot.DateAxisRenderer,
tickOptions: { formatString:'%b %#d %H:%M' }
},
yaxis: { label: 'Parameter Values', tickOptions: { formatString:'%.2f' }, labelRenderer: $.jqplot.CanvasAxisLabelRenderer, labelOptions : { angle: 270, fontFamily: 'Arial, Verdana, Helvetica', fontSize: '8pt' }, autoscale: true },
},
seriesDefaults: {
markerOptions: {
show: true, style:'filledCircle', size: 4.5
}
},
highlighter:
{
show: true,
sizeAdjust: 7.5,
tooltipContentEditor:tooltipContentEditor //new code added to attempt to add legend name to mouse over tool tip
},
cursor:
{
show: true,
zoom: true,
showTooltip: false
},
legend:
{
labels: labelNames ,
show: true,
location: 's',
renderer: $.jqplot.EnhancedLegendRenderer,
rendererOptions:
{
numberColumns: 10,
numberRows: 5,
seriesToggle: 900,
disableIEFading: false
},
marginTop: '100px',
marginBottom: '100px',
placement: 'outside'
}
}
);
}
FURTHER UPDATE:
After being a bit silly and digging down deep into the plot object of JQPlot I realised that the str variable passed into the tooltipContentEditor method has what I need. So the following is the solution:
function tooltipContentEditor(str, seriesIndex, pointIndex, plot) {
// display series_label with x and y values value
return plot.legend.labels[seriesIndex] + ", " + str;
}
No help or advice provided so I thought I'd provide the solution I found after spending a few hours trying to fix.
