Thanks for your help. I have having a heck of a time trying to get something to work which is throwing me for a loop..
As seen in this jsfiddle (code copied below) i have a bar chart with a really long label which is wrapping.
What i am hoping to do i max out the label portion of the chart so that the label doesn't wrap while reducing the size of the actual data chart.
As an example; in the jsfiddle the label is maybe 30% of the total width and the bar data is 70%. Knowing my data, the labels would take up 80% of the width and the data would be in the last 20%.
Thoughts? Thanks, Steven.
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: { type: 'bar' },
xAxis: {
labels: {
style: {
"textOverflow": "none",
}
} ,
categories: ['Jan is the first month of the year and if you have a problem with that', 'Feb is the second']
},
series: [{ data: [29.9, 71.5] }]
});
});
Okay, looks like I got what i was looking for. Hope this helps someone else.
The key for me was setting the maringLeft attribute on the chart:
chart: {
type: 'bar',
marginLeft: 460
},
That, along with modifying the width, 'min-width' and useHTML on the label and lable style for the xAxis (Bar chart)
xAxis: {
categories: ['Short Name', 'Much Longer Location Name and if it is true then cool and if you want'],
labels: {
style: {
width: '400px',
'min-width': '350px'
},
useHTML : true
}
},
Thanks, Steven.

Using Highstock, I wish to draw a candlestick chart over a line chart.
I know it sounds weird, but I need to rotate the candlestick chart by 90 degrees clockwise.
The code I have now is:
Highcharts.getJSON('https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/highcharts/highcharts#v7.0.0/samples/data/new-intraday.json', function (data) {
// create the chart
Highcharts.stockChart('container', {
title: {
text: 'AAPL stock price by minute'
},
navigator: {
enabled: false
},
rangeSelector: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
name: 'AAPL',
type: 'candlestick',
data: data,
tooltip: {
valueDecimals: 2
}
},{
name: 'TEST',
type: 'line',
data: data
}]
});
});
JSFiddle here
What I want to get is the following (something like...):
Any (simple) idea?
Highstock is not adapted to this kind of customization. The only simple way seems to be creating two overlapping charts - one inverted and one with transparent background, but we have to take into account many limitations, like for example tooltip.
chart: {
inverted: true,
...
}

I have found this jsfiddle very helpful when I started working on paginated highchart columns. On top of this good example, I would like to know how I could change the x-axis labels into each data's corresponding name. (Ex. Along the x-axis, we should find the names of 'Fred G. Aandahl', 'Watkins Moorman Abbitt', 'Amos Abbott', etc. with their corresponding y-values and must change accordingly when the "Next" button is clicked.)
I have tried adding "xAxis" option inside the highcharts portion but still had no luck.
pie = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'column'
},
xAxis: {
labels: {
formatter: function(){
return this.value;
}
}
},
series: [{
data: []
}]
});
and
pie = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'column'
},
xAxis: {
labels: {
format: '{value}'
}
},
series: [{
data: []
}]
});
Can someone help me regarding on what I am missing in this example? It will be very much appreciated.
You can set type of xAxis to category and without category array the value in axis will be taken from the point. But you will need to change your setData call to
pie.series[0].setData( data.slice(from, to), true, true, false );
xAxis: {
type: 'category'
},
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/kpxp4/8/
I am able to change the x-axis labels accordingly by adding
pie.xAxis[0].update({
categories: category.slice(from, to)
})
after the setData call, where category is an array of all the x-axis labels that you want to display in correspondence to each y-axis value. Moreover, the
xAxis: {
type: 'category'
}
portion, as suggested by #Kacper Madej, works for the specific data format given originally. However, the pie.xAxis[0].update() could be used on a more general sense given that you know the array of x-axis labels that you want to use (regardless of the data or series format that you have).
Here is the link to the jsfiddle.
Hope this could be of any help, too.
I want to make some tooltips visible in my d3 map. The tooltips are column charts generated by Highcharts regarding the chosen city. The trick is that everything is displaying correctly (axis, labels ...) except that the columns are not visible!
Here my d3 code (only the relevant parts):
var tooltip = d3.select("body")
.append("div")
.attr("id","tooltip")
.style("position", "absolute")
.style("visibility", "hidden");
cities.on("mouseover", function(d, i) {
d3.select(this).style('fill', '#95a5a6');
tooltip.html(zoomCityComm(d))
return tooltip.style("visibility", "visible")})
.on("mousemove", function(d, i){
return tooltip.style("top", (d3.event.pageY - 130) + "px").style("left",(d3.event.pageX - 120) + "px");
})
}
The function zoomCityComm is HighCharts (example of data: [5,10]):
function zoomCityComm(d) {
chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart : {
renderTo: 'tooltip',
type: 'column',
width:200,
height:200,
plotBackgroundColor: '#FCFFC5',
zoomType: 'xy'
},
title: {
text: "TOTO"
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['In','Out']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Sum',
style: {
color: '#4572A7'
}
},
labels: {
style: {
color: '#4572A7'
}
},
},
series:[{color: '#4572A7',data: res}]
});
return document.getElementById("tooltip").innerHTML;
}
When the graph is displayed in a "normal" div within the document, it appears correctly.
Sorry if my explanations are not clear but ask me for some details if needed.
Thanks
Cyril
You're setting the HTML content of the div twice, as highcharts renders it itself. In your mouseover handler function, it is enough to do
zoomCityComm(d);
instead of
tooltip.html(zoomCityComm(d));
For the interested, here's what's happening. Setting the HTML of the tooltip div from the return value of the function captures the first animation frame that highchart uses to grow the bars. As it is the first frame, the height of the bars is still 0 -- that is, the bars are there, but not visible because they have essentially no height. Replacing the HTML of the div means that the animation won't work anymore, as the elements that would be animated have been replaced.
I took a sample jsfiddle and modified it here just to show a sample of what I experienced:

Here is what my actual datalabel code looks like:
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
align: 'left',
verticalAlign: 'top',
style: {
color: 'black'
},
formatter: function () {
if (this.x == 19) {
return this.y + '<br>units left';
};
}
}
What I am having on my area chart is that the last data label is cut off. Is there a way to increase the width of the container or add some type of padding so that the full label shows?
Just changing the x and y position of the label will not work for my area chart. I have my chart customized so that only the last point of the chart has a data label and i want it aligned to the right of the last point and not within the chart.
But if we can get the above sample fiddle to work then the same solution should work for me.
You can add marginRight to chart like this:
chart: {
renderTo: container,
width: 550,
marginRight: 35
}
jsFiddle.
This is not a direct solution, but I suggest you to put the label at the yAxis:
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Units left'
}
},
And remove the other attributes, leaving just enabled: true:
plotOptions: {
series: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true
}
}
},
See the fiddle
You can set spacingRight and add correct value.
I found out a problem with chart (highcharts 2.3.5) when i enter datetime series with only 1 data entry, it renders it with incorrect placement on x-axis and wrong point formatting.
here is the example: http://jsfiddle.net/LAcSw/
$(function () {
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container'
},
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime'
},
series: [{
data: [
[Date.UTC(2010, 0, 1), 29.9]
]
}]
});
});
Is there a fix know or something(it was fine on 2.2.5)?
Since you only have a single point HighCharts is making its best guess as to the yAxis range as well as what the label is on the point for the xAxis.
You are not defining any sort of formatting for the xAxis datetime labels - and HighCharts only has one point to work with so it defaults to time. If you assign a formatter for the xAxis labels you can get it to do what you want.
Here is some rough code to show you what this does:
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime',
labels: {
formatter: function() {
return Highcharts.dateFormat('%d %b %Y', this.value);
}
}
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
max:50
},
And here is your jsFiddle updated.
