I'm trying to graphic some values, I have this part, then I want to add some max and min line, I could do this creating another series and adding the min/max value that I want, the problem here is that my value series is an array of n elements so I want to know if I could create the min/max series for example just doing data: [2] and put the line in all the width of my chart. Something like this:
If there is no way to do this, just if is possible doing: data[2, 2, 2,.... n] is possible to show only the first and the last point and hide the rest of them?
Here is my working code
You can use plotLines for this.
Example:
yAxis: {
softMax: max,
min: 0,
plotLines: [{
value: min,
width: 1,
color: 'rgba(204,0,0,0.75)'
},{
value: max,
width: 1,
color: 'rgba(204,0,0,0.75)'
}]
}

Alternatively, if you really want it to be a series, you can grab the min and max x values, and provide your data as arrays of [x,y] pairs. Something like:
series: [{
name: 'Actual Series'
...
},{
name: 'Max',
data: [[xMin,yMax],[xMax,yMax]]
},{
name: 'Min',
data: [[xMin,yMin],[xMax,yMin]]
}]

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.

Is it possible to invert the y-axis, but not the data? I have a ranking which should start with 1 at the top, not at the bottom, but the columns should stay just normal.
Thanks for any hints!
You can use reversed yAxis, and column series, where each point will have y and low values, where low values are the same as the lowest number. See: http://jsfiddle.net/JVNjs/303/
var max = 10;
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container'
},
title: {
text: 'Chart Title'
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
max: max,
tickInterval: 2,
reversed: true
},
series: [{
type: 'column',
data: [{
y: 1,
low: max
}, {
y: 3,
low: max
}, {
y: 6,
low: max
}]
}]
There is no good easy direct way to do it (afaik).
There are a variety of approaches you could take, however.
This example uses a reversed axis and stacked columns:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/JVNjs/301/
stacking:'normal',
It relies on adding a second series that is the difference between your value and the max, which means you must also specify a y axis max.
I left the second series a light grey so you can see them, but you can set their opacity to 0 so that they are invisible.
Other options might include doing some calculations on the y axis label formatter to display the axis labels as you want without having to touch the data.
Highcharts provides an option for this called reversed setting it true will do the work for you.
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#yAxis.reversed
reversed: true
here is the jsfiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/bmbhD/
I'm relatively new to HighCharts, and I would like to have two Y-axes where the data is always expressed in terms of the left-hand (primary) Y-Axis, but there is a constant function whereby you can translate the data into the terms on the right-hand (secondary) Y-Axes.
Take, for example, http://jsfiddle.net/M2EVb/
It's a constant well-known function to translate from Fahrenheit to Celsius. Even though I have specified the Primary Y-Axis as ranging from 32 to 212 with a tick interval of 18, and the Secondary Y-Axis as ranging from 0 to 100 with a tick interval of 10, the two axes don't line up properly; likely due to the "cels" data. But the point is that I would like to have the "cels" data just be another set of Fahrenheit temps, and have the right-hand Y-Axis values be the proper Celsius "translations" of their respective Fahrenheit values, and always show up.
Use the label's formatter function in the yAxis configuration to convert your yAxis ticks from F to C like this:
yAxis: [{
title: {
text: 'Temperature (C)'
},
labels: {
formatter: function() {
return YourConversionFunction(this.value) +' C';
}
}
}]
Make sure you are defining your Series using the same dataset (the F data):
series: [{
type: 'area',
name: 'Temp (F)',
data: Far_TempData,
yAxis: 0,
xAxis: 0
}, {
type: 'area',
name: 'Temp (C)',
data: Far_TempData,
yAxis: 1,
xAxis: 0,
lineWidth:0,
fillOpacity: 0.01,
visible:true
}]
I have a very simple example using Highcharts which uses "datetime" on one axis and categories on the other. It renders with no points and does not show the categories labels at all. I'm wondering now if you can't use that combination of types. Here is the code:
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container'
},
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime'
},
yAxis: {
categories: ['p1', 'p2']
},
series: [{
type: 'scatter',
data: [
{
name: 'Deliv1',
x: Date.UTC(2011,0,1),
y: 'p1'
},
{
name: 'Deliv2',
x: Date.UTC(2012,0,1),
y: 'p2'
}
]
}]
});
The answer to my problem was given on the highcharts forum. I thought I'd report back here what the solution was. I was errantly using y: 'p1' and y: 'p2' for values on the points. The y values actually are the indexes of the categories. Here is the updated code which works:
data: [
{
name: 'Deliv1',
x: Date.UTC(2011,0,1),
y: 0
},
{
name: 'Deliv2',
x: Date.UTC(2012,0,1),
y: 1
}
]
It's possible but you'll need to pretend the y values are numeric.
Probably by having an array with the actual Y-value and a number (maybe index) then the point's y value to the number and for the y-axis settings add the label's formatter to return the actual y-value based on the value.
You'll also need to adjust the min, max, interval and if you're using tooltips add a similar formatter to get the y-value.
(If I get more time, I'll try to create an example).
I'm trying to use highcharts to draw column chart with the following data:
- I have three categories: apples, oranges, peaches
- I have three data series for it: [1, 10, 100], [2, 9, 120], [1, 11, 150]
As you can see y values for different categories have completely different scales and I would like to show them accordingly. I'd like to show three groups of three columns, like this:
1, 2, 1 --- 10, 9, 11 --- 100, 120, 150
But also make sure first group is not completely squeezed into the ground because of the lower values.
Is it possible with highcharts?
You may want to take a look at the dual-axis chart example. Basically, you just need to make sure that you define your data in separate series, with different y-axes.
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
//...
yAxis: [
//your yAxis definitions
],
series: [{
name: "Apples",
yAxis: 0, //the index of the yAxis definition you want to use
data: [1,2,1]
}, {
name: "Oranges",
data: [10,9,11]
}, {
name: "Peaches",
data: [100,120,150]
}]
})
