Highcharts custom styling connect and label - highcharts

How to I custom donuts in highcharts with, each start point connect label have a circle, and style the connect line, and hidden the lower value.
I using highcharsjs
like this one

In Highcharts you can only edit softness of connector and color/length. If you want to change that, then you need to overwrite drawDataLabels function for pie series. Or update series.data[index].connector path after rendering to fit your needs.
Something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/yzob09ks/
function redrawConnectors() {
var chart = this,
d;
Highcharts.each(chart.series[0].data, function(point, i) {
if(point.connector) {
d = point.connector.d.split(' ');
d = [d[0], d[1], d[2], d[10], d[11], d[12]];
point.connector.attr({
d: d
});
}
});
}
Note: Demo just shows how to change default behavior for connectors, now just render proper shape you want to.

Position shared tooltip above the stacked columns

When using stacked columns, I would like the tooltip to be positioned above the stacked columns. Right now, the tooltip will appear above the hovered part of the column, like this:
I would like the tooltip to always appear above the stacked columns regardless of the hovered part, like this:
(source: i.ibb.co)
I know about the positioner method, but this function doesn't seem to receive the proper parameters for me to position the tooltip above the stacked columns. In particular I don't know how to properly get the coordinates of the hovered column, all I get is the global position of the cursor.
You can use the shared parameter for a tooltip:
tooltip: {
shared: true
}
Live demo: http://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/us4h659d/
API Reference: https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/tooltip.shared
So I finally managed to do it using Axis.toValue() and Axis.toPixels() values:
https://api.highcharts.com/class-reference/Highcharts.Axis
For my solution to work you need to have a way to get the total value of a stacked column. There may be a way to do it using only the Highcharts object, but I don't like messing too much with the internals of Highcharts for compatibility reasons.
Here's what the positioner method could look like:
function positioner(labelWidth, labelHeight, point)
{
// Default position, assuming mChart is the Highcharts object
var chartY = point.plotY + mChart.plotTop;
var chartX = point.plotX + mChart.plotLeft;
// Move chartY above the stacked column, assuming getTotalColumnValue() exists
var category = Math.round(mChart.xAxis[0].toValue(point.plotX, true));
if(category in mChart.xAxis[0]['categories'])
chartY = mChart.yAxis[0].toPixels(getTotalColumnValue(category), false);
// Move tooltip above the point, centered horizontally
return {
x: chartX - labelWidth / 2,
y: chartY - labelHeight - 10,
};
}

Two bar graphs in the same place, controlled by one slider D3.js

I am attempting to create a bar graph that when independent sliders are moved they change two bar graph svg heights at the same time and they are stacked, they are different colors show it shows two separate values in the same graph, basically showing growth vs the current. I am using jquery-ui and D3.js. Currently it only moves the one svg elements instead of both at the same time, Id like them both to move at the same time.
HTML
<div id="slider" class="slider">
<label for="amount">Age</label>
<input type="text" id="amount1" style="border:0; font-weight:bold;">
</div>
<div id="slider1" class="slider">
<label for="amount2">Retirement Age</label>
<input type="text" id="amount2" style="border:0; font-weight:bold;">
</div>
JS
//initialize sliders
jQuery(document).ready(function($) {
$("#slider").slider({
max: 100
});
$("#slider").slider({
min: 18
});
$("#slider1").slider({
max: 100
});
$("#slider1").slider({
min: 18
});
//slider actions
$("#slider, #slider1").slider({
value: 10,
animate: "fast" ,
slide: function (event, ui) {
//capture the value of the specified slider
var selection = $("#slider").slider("value");
var selection1 = $("#slider1").slider("value");
//fill the input box with the slider value
$( "#amount1" ).val( selection );
$( "#amount2" ).val( selection1 );
//set width and height, actually I'm a little confused what this is for
var w = 200;
var h = 200;
//data arrays for svgs
var dataset = [];
var dataset1 = [];
//fill the data arrays with slider values
dataset.push(selection);
dataset.push(selection1 + selection);
//draw rectangle on the page
var rectangle = svg.selectAll("rect")
.classed("collapse", true)
.data(dataset);
**
THIS IS WHERE IT CONFUSES ME
**
//I draw the second rectangle here, however I choose the same svg element,
//Im not sure what other way to get it to appear in the same space but
//I am sure this is what is causing my issues
var rectangle1 = svg.selectAll("rect")
.classed("collapse", true)
.data(dataset1);
//not sure what this does
rectangle.enter().append("rect");
rectangle1.enter().append("rect");
rectangle.attr("width", 200).transition().attr("fill", "#A02222").attr("height", function (d) { console.log('d is ' + d);
return d;
}).attr("x", function (d) {
return 40; //I dont know why I return 40?
}).attr("y", function (d) {
return 40; //Same here dont know why I return 40?
});
rectangle1.attr("width", 200).transition().attr("height", function (d) { console.log('d is ' + d);
return d;
}).attr("x", function (d) {
return 40; //I dont know why I return 40?
}).attr("y", function (d) {
return 40; //Same here dont know why I return 40?
});
}
// slider actions ends here
});
//Create SVG element
var svg = d3.select(".svgContain").append("svg").attr("width", 125).attr("height", 300);
});
For starters, you may want to follow this tutorial: http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/3886208
The "return 40;" that you are wondering about are actually what will specify the position and dimensions of the rect's you're appending to the svg. Those shouldn't just be 40, they should be bound to values in the data set, or based on the index of the bar's series in the set of series or something more meaningful than 40.
There is a stacked bar chart data processor that will take a set of series and spit out a new set of series coordinate definitions that make it easier to calculate how rect's will stack in svg coordinate space: https://github.com/mbostock/d3/wiki/Stack-Layout
Then, there's the more general issue of how to deal with these "nested" data sets where you have series, and in the series there are values and you don't want to have to manually track and select individual series. There are several ways to handle this sort of situation. If you know you will only ever have two series, and you really want fine-grained control over each independently, you could assign the top level object an id and then start the data join for each of the plots by selecting that top level object by id... eg:
var container1 = d3.select("#myContainer1);
container1.selectAll("rect").data(myData1).append("rect");
var container2 = d3.select("#myContainer2);
container2.selectAll("rect").data(myData2).append("rect");
If you do something like that, the first select basically sets the context of the subsequent selects. So, only the rects inside of the "#myContainer1" or "#myContainer2" will get selected by each "selectAll" based on which context you're in.
The other approach is to use nested selections. Nested selections are a little more complicated to wrap your head around, but 90% of the time, this is the approach I use. With nested selections, you would restructure your data slightly and then apply nested selects/joins to bind each series to a dom element and then the values of each series to subelements of each of the series dom elements.
First, read this: http://bost.ocks.org/mike/nest/
and then try making your data something more like this:
data = [
{ key: "series1", values: [...]},
{ key: "series2", values: [...]}
];
Then, you will want to do a nested selection where you start with a selection of the "data" array and bind it to whatever svg or html element you have that wraps each of the two series.
var series = d3.select("svg").selectAll("g.series")
.data(data, function(d){return d.key; });
series.enter().append("g").attr("class", "series");
At this point, d3 will have added a "g" element to your svg element for each series and bound the series object (including the key and values array) to the appended elements. Next, you can make a nested selection to add series-specific elements to the g element... ie:
var rect = series.selectAll("rect").data(function(d) { return d.values });
rect.enter().append("rect");
Note that we used a function in our ".data(...)" call. That's because the values we want passed to the join actually depend on which specific series is being processed by D3.
Now, you'd have a rect added to the g element for each value in each series. Since you used d3 to do the data binding and you used the key function in the first select (".data(data, function(d){return d.key;}"), future selects done in the same nested/keyed manner will update the right g and rect elements.
Here's a Fiddle that demonstrates the concept:
http://jsfiddle.net/reblace/bWp8L/2/
A key takeaway is that you can update the data (including adding additional series) and the whole thing will redraw correctly according to the new nested join.

Reveal.js with highcharts

I'm using reveal.js (http://lab.hakim.se/reveal-js/) together with Highcharts JS but i have problems with tooltips position. For example, if i use a line with the months on the x axis, when i put the mouse over the point in january the tooltip its ok, but when i put the mouse over december the tooltip shows me the october data. The tooltip for each month is displaced more and more.
You can see http://lideria.net/presentacion/index1.php to see the problem
This may be problem with Highcharts which us already reported here. Also there is suggested workaround: http://jsfiddle.net/highcharts/BD3R7/
reveal.js autoscales the viewport with a css zoom tag. If you inspect class="slides" div, you'll see something like this:
<div class="slides" style="width: 960px; height: 700px; zoom: 0.8331428571428572;">
Here the content (the chart) is scaled 80% of normal size and Highcharts loses it's ability to calculate positions properly if the chart is scaled outside of its control.
With that knowledge, a quick stack overflow search talks about the ability to force 'reveal.js` to not auto-scale content.
You must overwrite the normalize of the H.Pointer.prototype (referenced WRAPPING UP A PLUGIN). Add the following code to document.ready function (maybe somewhere else works, I guess). The reasons are:
reveal.js has separate ways when zoom>1 and zoom<1, e.g., zoom:1.25 and transform:scale(0.75).
So, when a section has several charts and zoom>1, must adjust e.chartX by e.pageX.
(function (H) {
H.wrap(H.Pointer.prototype, 'normalize', function (proceed, e) {
var e = proceed.call(this,e);
var zoom = Reveal.getScale();
if(zoom>1) {
var positionX = e.pageX - e.chartX;
var positionY = e.pageY - e.chartY;
e.chartX = Math.round((e.pageX - positionX*zoom)/zoom);
e.chartY = Math.round((e.pageY - positionY*zoom)/zoom);
} else {
e.chartX = Math.round(e.chartX/zoom);
e.chartY = Math.round(e.chartY/zoom);
}
return e;
});
}(Highcharts));

Highcharts - programmatically draw a line or graphic between two related points

I often have charts that require a design element like a curly brace to call attention to call attention to a range or comparison in a graph, such as the y-difference in two points at the end of a graph.
My first take is that this would be a job for Highcharts Renderer API. Load the graph, and run a callback that adds an image (or line, shape, whatever) via chart.renderer.image(...) or similar.
That's the approach I have started down, but I'm just missing how to get the coordinates for chart data points within the callback. Here's a working codepen of the code below. What doesn't work is that there's no logic to give it proper placement on the canvas (suppose I want the bracket to go from the final top point to the final bottom point)
$('#container').highcharts({
data: { table: document.getElementById('datatable') },
chart: { type: 'line' },
title: { text: 'Data extracted from a HTML table in the page'
}
}, function(chart){
var img = 'http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/4/4b/Curly_bracket_right.svg/30px-Curly_bracket_right.svg.png';
// How can I populate these values?
var x = 0; // should programmatically get x-position of last point
var y = 0; // should programmatically get y-position of last point
var h = 100; // should programmatically get distance between y-position of top and bottom points
var w = 50;
chart.renderer.image( img, x, y, w, h ).add();
});
Is there a straightforward way to populate those values? Or is there a better way to do this entirely?
to get the position you want you can use few methods provided by highcharts in their API.
methods like toPixels(), toValue() will help you to alter your required position as per the chart demogrphics.
please refer their api
toPixels() : http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#Axis.toPixels()
toValue() : http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#Axis.toValue()
hope using this will solve your requirement of positioning

HighCharts Keep Vertical Line on Click Event

Using this example: http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/jquery/1.7.2/highslide-software/highcharts.com/tree/master/samples/stock/demo/candlestick-and-volume/
When you hover over points on the chart, you get a nice vertical line showing you which point you're currently on. I want to modify the click event so that the vertical line stays when I hover away after a click. Changing the line color would be ideal on click, but not necessary.
If I click another point I'd want to remove any previous lines. Any ideas on how I could accomplish this?
The above solution like I said, is really cool, but is kind of a hack (getting the path of the crosshair) into the implementation details of highcharts, and may stop working in future releases, may not be totally cross browser (esp since <IE8 do not support SVG, the adding path may still work as it should be handled by highchart's add path method, but getting the crosshair's path may not work, I may be wrong, am an SVG noob). So here I give you the alternate solution of dynamically adding plotLines. PlotLines also allow some additional features like dashStyles, label etc.
get the axis and x value of point clicked (may not exactly overlap the crosshair)
var xValue = evt.xAxis[0].value;
var xAxis = evt.xAxis[0].axis;
Or
EDIT If you want to have the plotLine at the location of the crosshair and not the click position, you can use following formula (No direct API to get this, obtained from source code hence may stop working if code changes)
var chart = this;
var index = chart.inverted ? chart.plotHeight + chart.plotTop - evt.chartY : evt.chartX - chart.plotLeft;
var xValue = chart.series[0].tooltipPoints[index].x;
Add plotline
xAxis.addPlotLine({
value: xValue,
width: 1,
color: 'red',
//dashStyle: 'dash',
id: myPlotLineId
});
You can cleanup existing plotline
$.each(xAxis.plotLinesAndBands,function(){
if(this.id===myPlotLineId)
{
this.destroy();
}
});
OR
try {
xAxis.removePlotLine(myPlotLineId);
} catch (err) {}
Putting the pieces together
var myPlotLineId="myPlotLine";
...
var chart=this;
index = chart.inverted ? chart.plotHeight + chart.plotTop - evt.chartY : evt.chartX - chart.plotLeft;
var xValue = chart.series[0].tooltipPoints[index];
// var xValue = evt.xAxis[0].value; // To use mouse position and not crosshair's position
var xAxis = evt.xAxis[0].axis;
$.each(xAxis.plotLinesAndBands,function(){
if(this.id===myPlotLineId)
{
this.destroy();
}
});
xAxis.addPlotLine({
value: xValue,
width: 1,
color: 'red',
//dashStyle: 'dash',
id: myPlotLineId
});
...
Add plot lines at click position # jsFiddle
Persist crosshair/cursor as plot lines on click # jsFiddle
You can do it in several ways
Highchart has a very cool renderer that allows you to add various graphics to the chart. One of the options is to add a path I will be illustrating the same here.
We shall reuse the path of the crosshair and add the same to the chart with some additional styles like color you mentioned. The path of the crosshair can be optained as this.tooltip.crosshairs[0].d this is in string form and can be easily converted to an array using the Array.split() function
click: function() {
this.renderer.path(this.tooltip.crosshairs[0].d.split(" ")).attr({
'stroke-width': 2,
stroke: 'red'
}).add();
}
This will accomplish adding the line. You can store the returned object into a global variable and then when you are about to add another such line, you can destroy the existing one by calling Element.destroy()
var line;
...
chart:{
events: {
click: function() {
if (line) {
line.destroy();
}
line = this.renderer.path(this.tooltip.crosshairs[0].d.split(" ")).attr({
'stroke-width': 2,
stroke: 'red'
}).add();
}
}
...
Persist tooltip / crosshair on click # jsFiddle
Assuming you don't have much meta data to be shown along with the line, this is the easiest (or the coolest :) ) approach. You can also attach meta data if you want to using the renderer's text object etc.
An alternate way could be adding vertical plotLines to the xAxis
UPDATE
Refer my other solution to this question, that would work with zoom,scroll,etc
