I have sample of array data below :
[
[10,10.23],
[23,58.55],
...,
[-30,170.66],
...,
[-13,3433.36],
...,
[4,47449.77],
...
]
When I generate them to graph, the xaxis label was set to :
0, 5k, 10k, 15k, 20k, 25k, 30k, etc
I would like to set step for xaxis label like :
0, 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000
or in logic code equal to :
Math.pow(10,step+1)
I read the Highchart API, never found the solution for this step method. Is there a trick to do that?
Thank you,
Mahdi
I think you are looking for
xAxis: {
type: 'logarithmic',
labels: { //for if you want to hide the 'k' abbreviation for thousands
'{value}'
}
},
See the HighCharts demo on logarithmic charts for more details.

I am currently working on a specific type of chart and I am trying to achieve the following behavior for example :
As you can see there's a gap between the series last point and the xAxis max value and the reason for this is i wanna have a fix max value and load the daily values of a specific currency as the day passes by. So for example in the morning this chart would be empty and by 18:30 it would be filled.
In my mock example i have the current chart:
and when I try to set a new xAxis max value ( i also tried softMax) to a future day (using epoch converter for unixtimestamp) i am getting this:
and i set the max by doing :
return {
endOnTick: false,
max:1631962355,
tickLength: 2,
gridLineColor: '#b9b9b9',
gridLineWidth: 0,
tickColor: '#808080',
labels: {
style: {
color: '#b9b9b9',
},
x: 0,
y: 12,
format: '{value:%d.%b}',
},
visible: true,
};
}
UPDATE
After implementing your response I get an even weirder behavior. I get the same initial start I had before (no difference) but now if i click and drag it to the right I go from this :
to this:
and If i click and drag it to the left, into this:
The transformation happens without animation, neither by wathching the drag and move motion happen. It just instantly transforms after i drag my cursor pointer for a while towards the sides i mentioned above
You need to use milliseconds instead of seconds:
xAxis: {
max: 1631962355000,
...
}

i have a highchart with 4 series. I also only set the min value for each y-axis to 0 cause there arent any negative values possible. now highchart is calculating the max value by itself what is nice BUT i need this for each series itself. The reason is that i have 2 series with very high values from the range up to 5000 and the other two values are relativ small from 0 to 50.
The max value highcharts calculates is used for all four series - so the chart looks like this:
As you can see you can only see the two high value series - the other two arent really visible at the bottom of the chart.
When i disable the two series with the high values the chart looks nice for the other two values:
is there any flag i can use so highchart will calculate the max value / scale per series? Or have i really calculate it by myself - also on zoom and so on.
I found this: https://github.com/highcharts/highcharts/issues/4248
But i thought thats some basic functionality with is needed very often so there has to be something..

Maybe it would be better to use logarithmic axis type? Your chart would have only one axis adjusted to much difference between the values of series points. When it comes to differences between units of measurement, always you can set the different tooltip.pointFormat definition for specific series.
Highcharts.chart('container', {
title: {
text: 'Logarithmic axis demo'
},
yAxis: {
type: 'logarithmic',
},
series: [{
data: [1, 20, 30, 22, 16, 32, 45, 24, 11, 2],
pointStart: 1,
tooltip: {
pointFormat: '<b>{point.y} km/h</b>'
}
}, {
data: [4500, 3450, 4242, 2348, 5216, 3212, 4564, 3128, 5256, 4512],
pointStart: 1,
tooltip: {
pointFormat: '<b>{point.y} kW/h</b>'
}
}]
});

I have here https://jsfiddle.net/ezhp5a4j/6/ an area and a stacked bar chart But I need to achieve something like : adding another series:column behind this actual but not stacked, starting from jan. 2010 and end dec. 2010 with a certain position in y axis, my need is quiet simple, but I don't know how achieve, I think I need another X axis ?
Actually I have:
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime',
ordinal: false
},
Maybe I need add array to this or so?
You could do this with a second axis, but it's not necessary.
If you add your new data series, with some additional parameters to control the size and spacing, it can all use the same x axis.
Example:
{
"name": 'Summary',
type: 'column',
grouping: false, <-- make sure they don't group with the other series
stacking: false, <-- make sure they don't stack on the other series
color: 'rgba(0,0,0,0.5)',
pointRange: 86400000 * 365, , <-- 1 year; set to desired time frame
pointInterval: 86400000 * 365, <-- 1 year; set to desired time frame
pointPadding: 0.01,
groupPadding: 0,
data: [10000, 15000, 9000, 13000]
}
Updated fiddle:
https://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/ezhp5a4j/15/
Output:
EDIT for comment:
To add a second axis, you change the xAxis object to an array of objects, like this:
xAxis: [{
type: 'datetime',
ordinal: false
},{
linkedTo: 0,
type: 'datetime',
ordinal: false
}]
If they are going to have different scales, I am not sure that it makes any sense to plot them together, but in that case, you would remove the linkedTo: 0
Then, in your data, you need to specify which data series are plotted on the second axis, by adding xAxis: 1 to the series options (you don't need to specify xAxis: 0 for the other series, as 0 is the default.
Since you have specified a pointStart in your plotOptions, if the series plotted on the second axis will have a different scale, you will need to specify a separate pointStart in that series options.

I am using highcharts to perform sensor graphing for basic temperatures, or things of that nature. The issue is I have the current default view set at 3 days, but at that view it distorts the y axis data values.
For example, if the majority of the data is 1.5 but there is a value of 10 also, in the three day view the y axis is only showing a range up to 3 or 4. It shows the spike in the actual line graph however when you hover over the point the value is 3 or 4 instead of 10. However, if I shrink the view to 2 hours, the data gets displayed properly and the value then returns to 10 and the y axis accomodates the 10 value.
Also I am having issues with the data being rounded down constantly it seems, since the values should be a steady 1.5 it is constantly being rounded down to 1.
Any help will be appreciated and I will be around the computer all day to answer any questions that someone might have about this issue.
$.getJSON('mkjson.php?device=<?echo $device_name;?>&sensor=<?echo $sensor_name;?>&pin=<?echo $pin;?>&user=<?echo $_SESSION['user'];?>', function(data) {
// Create the chart
window.chart = new Highcharts.StockChart({
chart : {
renderTo : 'container',
zoomType: 'x'
},
rangeSelector : {
selected : 1
},
title : {
text : 'Device:<?echo $device_name;?>'
},
subtitle : {
text : 'Sensor:<?echo $sensor_name;?>'
},
xAxis : {
minRange: 600 * 1000 // one hour
},
yAxis : {
title : {
text : '<?echo $unit;?>'
}
},
rangeSelector : {
buttons : [{
type : 'minute',
count : 10,
text : '10m'
}, {
type : 'hour',
count : 1,
text : '1H'
}, {
type : 'day',
count : 1,
text : '1D'
},
{
type : 'day',
count : 3,
text : '3D'
}],
selected : 3,
inputEnabled : false
},
series : [{
name : 'Voltage',
data : data,
tooltip: {
valueDecimals: 2
}
}]
});
});
This is the example of how the data is skewed. The high points to the right are 10, and 13 yet they show up at only 3.
Have a look at dataGrouping as it lets you determine how to group or to have it off completely. It defaults to enabled.
Have you tried to use numberFormat() http://api.highcharts.com/highstock#highcharts.numberFormat()
I've been burned by the auto-rounding; the chart does some sort of value rounding for its internal representation of points.
I only have a workaround - I got around it by storing the data points in a separate array and referencing THAT in the tooltip function.
As of note, if you're using column data and don't turn data grouping off, the chart will round your X values too.
I'm outputting a series of highcharts on a page. In some instances, all data for the specified time period may come back with 0 values.
In such a case, the chart looks like this: http://jsfiddle.net/charliegriefer/KM2Jx/1/
There is only 1 y-Axis label, 0, and it's in the middle of the chart.
I'd like to force that 0 value for the y-Axis to be at the bottom of the chart, which would be consistent with other charts on the page that do have data.
Have tried various yAxis properties, such as "min: 0", "minPadding: 0", "maxPadding: 0", "startOnTick: true".
Seems it should be pretty straightforward, but I'm at a loss :(
Relevant yAxis code:
yAxis: {
min: 0,
minPadding: 0,
startOnTick: true,
title: {
text: ""
}
},
I've found another (and very simple) solution:
You can set y-axis minRange property:
yAxis: {
...
minRange : 0.1
}
This makes Highcharts render yAxis min and max values when all data is 0.
UPDATE:
Highcharts 4.1.9 fix also needs:
plotOptions: {
line: {
softThreshold: false
}
}
updated js fiddle
Only way I could get it to show it "correctly" was by also providing an yAxis max value. I think this is a HighCharts issue when you provide no data elements with a y-value. It draws the best chart it thinks it can.
I had also posted this to the HighCharts forum, where I got a response that seems to work. Unfortunately, it will involve me doing some pre-processing of the data prior to rendering the charts in order to check for all "0" data values... but it'll work. Just wish there was something more "built-in" to HighCharts.
So after summing up the "y" values, if I get 0, the y-axis properties should look like this:
yAxis: {
minPadding: 0,
maxPadding: 0,
min: 0,
max:1,
showLastLabel:false,
tickInterval:1,
title: {
text: ""
}
}
See: http://jsfiddle.net/KM2Jx/2/
The keys seem to be the "max" and "showLastLabel" properties.
Here is a fix I came up with that doesn't require any preprocessing of the data and just let highcharts do it, like it used to before the update. http://jsfiddle.net/QEK3x/
if(chart.yAxis[0].dataMax === 0)
{
chart.yAxis[0].setExtremes(0, 5);
}
You only need to check the first series axis, as if the first one is not 0 then the problem won't occur. I might submit a pull request for this to high-charts, though I kinda feel like they intended for this functionality for some reason.
Since Highcharts 5.0.1, you can also use softMax.
softMax: Number
A soft maximum for the axis. If the series data maximum is greater than this, the axis will stay at this maximum, but if the series data maximum is higher, the axis will flex to show all data.
yAxis: {
min: 0,
softMax: 100,
...
}
Here is an example with a column chart : http://jsfiddle.net/84LLsepj/
Note that currently, in Highcharts 5.0.7, it doesn't seem to be working for all types of charts. As you can see in this other jsfiddle, it doesn't work with line chart.
Just add "min" option
yAxis: {
min: 0
}
For Highcharts 5.x.x, you should be able to just specify:
yAxis: {
softMin: 0,
softMax: 1,
};
This won't work for line chart, which requires that you also set minRange in the same config object as above. Experiment with different values, since defining for example minRange: 6, created a range on yAxis between 0 and 4.
minRange : 1 or whatever you feel so to be displayed in fractions of
softMax : 100 or whatever you feel so
yAxis: {
minRange : 1,
softMax: 100
}
