I created a jsfiddle example of what I am trying to do. I load up a chart with the data in the example, then I want to set custom values for my axis. The extremes I am setting are -1034970.057, 1034970.057 because I want my y axis values to be symmetric.
However, what I end up with in the chart is yAxis extremes of -1.5m and +3m rather than -1.5m and +1.5m. I am asking it to be symmetric, but after you push the set extremes button, you can see that it is not symmetric.
My data is dynamic and changes based on the settings on the page they are looking at, so this data is just an example of one of the many scenarios that I can encounter. This means that I can't hard code a tick interval or tick count. Is there a way to have this be symmetric?
I got it working by setting the start/endOnTick setting to false in the chart and then to true on click.
http://jsfiddle.net/uNvvk/
yAxis: [{
startOnTick: false,
endOnTick: false,
}, {
yAxis.options.startOnTick = true;
yAxis.options.endOnTick = true;
I've no idea why that works though!

this may seem a noob's question but when I try to use setExtremes or showResetZoom on my xAxis, I get this in the console:
Uncaught TypeError: copt.xAxis.setExtremes is not a function
However my xAxis is correctly defined and works perfectly on plenty of other functions. I've copy-pasted code from several jsfiddler examples, but no way...
Here is my code:
Abs_ChartOptions= {
chart: {
zoomType: 'xy',
resetZoomButton: {
position: {
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: -50
},
}
},
title: { text: ''},
xAxis:{
type: 'datetime',
labels: { format: '{value: %d/%m/%Y}'},
tickInterval: 24*36e5, //24h
title:{ text: 'Date'},
crosshair: true,
},
yAxis: [{
title: { text: ''},
alternateGridColor: '#FDFFD5',
crosshair: true
}],
series: []
}
And on call site, after defining the series and the xMin/xMax values(which are correctly set on their way):
copt= clone(Abs_ChartOptions);
copt.xAxis.setExtremes(xMin,xMax);
copt.showResetZoom();
I've tried using directly Abs_ChartOptions instead of a clone, same issue.
NB: Using copt.xAxis.min= xMin; copt.xAxis.max= xMax; works fine for zooming, but I don't get the "reset zoom" buttton.
What did I miss? Is there some extra module needed or whatever ?
Thx in advance
You need to call both methods on a chart instance, not on the options configuration object.
const Abs_ChartOptions = {
...
};
const chart = Highcharts.chart('container', Abs_ChartOptions);
chart.xAxis[0].setExtremes(1, 3);
chart.showResetZoom();
Live demo: http://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/e81nj64v/
API Reference: https://api.highcharts.com/class-reference/Highcharts.Chart
I would like to display only the first and the last label on my xAxis. This would give enough of a »frame« for the user. However, I don't succeed in it. I am working with a synchronized chart, which can be found here. Is the second and third »column« of (smaller) graphs, I am targeting at.
I tried to work with »startOnTick« and »endOnTick«, but it won't do it.
xAxis: {
crosshair: true,
events: {
setExtremes: syncExtremes
},
visible: i === 1,
showFirstlabel: true,
showLastlabel: true,
startOnTick: true,
endOnTick: true,
labels: {
step: 500,
format: '{value}'
}
},
What is the correct way to force Highcharts to display only first and last label?
Here is a short fiddle (don't know why the line does not appear; it shows the values with mouseover...).
Thanks for any hints.
You can use the xAxis.labels.formatter callback to show wanted ticks:
Demo: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/m2Ln8sdg/
xAxis: {
tickAmount: 10,
labels: {
formatter() {
if(this.isFirst || this.isLast) {
return this.value
} else {
return ''
}
}
}
},
API: https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/xAxis.labels.formatter
If you want to have more control about it (like hide label and tick) you can use the load callback method and proper logic to hide/show ticks:
Demo: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/fbcdskmv/
chart: {
events: {
load() {
let chart = this;
for (let i in chart.xAxis[0].ticks) {
//hide all
chart.xAxis[0].ticks[i].label.hide()
chart.xAxis[0].ticks[i].mark.hide()
// show first and last tick
if (chart.xAxis[0].ticks[i].isFirst || chart.xAxis[0].ticks[i].isLast) {
chart.xAxis[0].ticks[i].mark.show()
chart.xAxis[0].ticks[i].label.show()
}
}
}
}
API: https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/chart.events.load
Or use the tickPositioner callback to achieve it: https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/xAxis.tickPositioner
The above answers are good, but i just wanted to show another approach which works just fine.
In my styling i do this;
.highcharts-xaxis-labels > text:not(:first-child):not(:last-child) {
visibility: hidden !important;
}
Summing up #luftikus143 and #Sebastian Wędzel comments:
const data = [
['Jan 2020', 167],
['Feb 2020', 170],
['Mar 2020', 172]
];
xAxis: {
type: 'category',
tickPositions: [0, data.length - 1]
}
Will output only the first and last labels. #martinethyl's workaround answer might need some extra tweaks specially if you have multiple data points. Suggestions (might not work well with smaller media types):
xAxis: {
type: 'category',
labels: {
rotation: 0,
x: 5, // Optional: moves labels along the x-axis
style: {
textOverflow: 'none', // Removes ellipsis
whiteSpace: 'nowrap', // Gets the label text in one line
},
},
Can we disable zoom on highchart graph while graph is loading.
I have multiple graphs therfore would like to disable the zoom option until all graphs gets loaded.
It is possible to change zoomType of a chart dynamically, but it is not a part of official API. That way after all charts are loaded you will be able to change their zoomType from none to some.
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
zoomType: ''
},
xAxis: {
minRange: 1
},
series: [{
data: [1,2,3,4,5,6,7]
}]
});
function enableZoom(zoomType) {
var chart = $('#container').highcharts(),
zoomX = /x/.test(zoomType),
zoomY = /y/.test(zoomType);
chart.options.zoomType = zoomType;
chart.pointer.zoomX = zoomX;
chart.pointer.zoomY = zoomY;
chart.pointer.zoomHor = zoomX;
chart.pointer.zoomVert = zoomY;
}
$('#zoomX').click(function () {
enableZoom('x');
});
$('#zoomY').click(function () {
enableZoom('y');
});
$('#zoomXY').click(function () {
enableZoom('xy');
});
$('#noZoom').click(function () {
enableZoom('');
});
});
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/pearp126/
you can do so by simple setting zoomType as null in your chart config
zoomType: null
See the documentation here for more details
Basically the only thing you need to get done is removing the chart and replacing it with one with the settings you like.
See the code below:
var chart = $('#container').highcharts();
function renderChart(){
chart = new Highcharts.Chart(chart.options);
chart.render();
}
Once you want to enable zooming (or any other setting):
$('#container').highcharts().options.chart.zoomType = 'xy';
renderChart();
To be honest I'm not sure what happens to the old chart. Hopefully it's just overwritten and doesn't it impose a big memory issue.
I created a fiddle you can find here
Basically you can stop the "selection" event (zoom), when the loading label of the chart is displayed.
Using the default Highcharts function .showLoading() for show the loading label, and the default variable loadingShown, for verify is the loading label is displayed or not.
So, by using the function .showLoading(), let's say before doing an AJAX request, and validating with the variable loadingShown if the loading label is displayed or not, we can stop the selection event.
Another way, is to use a thirdparty loading mask, and add it to the chart's container.
In the next example you'll find how to cancel the zoom using the .showLoading() function and how to use jQuery plugin: pLoading https://github.com/joseshiru/p-loading (for show the loading mask)
$(function () {
var setEvents;
var chart;
$.getJSON('https://www.highcharts.com/samples/data/jsonp.php?filename=usdeur.json&callback=?', function (data) {
chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
zoomType: 'x',
events: {
selection: function () {
//Quit the selection event, while the loading spinner is displayed.
if (chart.loadingShown) {
return false;
}
}
}

setEvents = function () {
var $showLoadingBtn = $('.show-loading');
var $hideLoadingBtn = $('.hide-loading');
var $showExternalMask = $('.show-toggle-mask');
var $hideExternalMask = $('.hide-toggle-mask');
$showLoadingBtn.on('click.showLoading', function () {
chart.showLoading();
});
$hideLoadingBtn.on('click.hideLoading', function () {
chart.hideLoading();
});
$showExternalMask.on('click.toggleMask', function () {
$('#container').ploading({action: 'show'});
});
$hideExternalMask.on('click.toggleMask', function () {
$('#container').ploading({action: 'hide'});
});
}();
});
Example in jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/8p2fzbxw/3/
After any sort of zoom (mouse drag, range selector, date input) the datetime returned from the point click event is usually incorrect. I've not yet found this problem when using an area chart, have found it using both bar and column chart.
To recreate: run the fiddle, zoom using the mouse across a few of the columns, click a datapoint. The alert will show the datetime returned. Notice it's different from the tooltip (which is correct).Usually fails after first click, even for the same datapoint.
BTW useUTC setting doesn't matter.

$(function() {
var seriesOptions = [],

$.getJSON('http://www.highcharts.com/samples/data/jsonp.php?filename='+ name.toLowerCase() +'-c.json&callback=?', function(data) {
seriesOptions[i] = {
name: name,
data: data,
type: 'column'
};
// As we're loading the data asynchronously, we don't know what order it will arrive. So
// we keep a counter and create the chart when all the data is loaded.
seriesCounter++;
if (seriesCounter == names.length) {
createChart();
}
});
});
// create the chart when all data is loaded
function createChart() {
Highcharts.setOptions({
global: {
useUTC: false // datetime reflects time on db (ie, local) rather than GMT
}
});
chart = new Highcharts.StockChart({

Have you tried to disable datagrouping http://api.highcharts.com/highstock#plotOptions.series.dataGrouping ?
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.
