How to display a single series total in stackLabels - highcharts

Based on: How to position datalabel at the base of bar series
I've made some updates so that a column chart shows a stacked column for 100%-total
However, using:
stackLabels: {
formatter: function() {
return this.total + '%';
},
enabled: true,
verticalAlign: 'middle',
align: 'left',
y:10
},
I am getting the total 100% for the entire stack. How can I adjust the formatter to only show the value for a single series?

Try this.
formatter: function() {
return this.total + '%';
},
I have trying SUM for 3 number of stack bar and it only using enable : true;

I am not sure but to get value for individual series you can use this.y or this.x.
try
return this.x OR
return this.y

highchart : Add the series name on the column chart

I need to have the series name printed on each column. Right now you can only print the value of the column as a label. http://jsfiddle.net/mVxGz/
Any ideas on how to do that?
plotOptions: {
series: {
dataLabels: {
align: 'left',
enabled: true,
rotation: 270,
inside: true
}
}
}
This can be done via the formatter. For example:
formatter: function () {
return this.series.name + ' - ' + this.y;
}

Highcharts - Data label cut off

I took a sample jsfiddle and modified it here just to show a sample of what I experienced:
http://jsfiddle.net/pMwuv/
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.

Set the with of xAxis label to 50% on a Highcharts BarChart

Is there way to set the label of an Bar Chart to 50% of the charts width? I've tried this but it does not work:
xAxis: {
categories: [],
labels: {
formatter: function() {
var text = this.value;
return '<div class="js-ellipse" style="width:100%; overflow:hidden; text-overflow: ellipsis" title="' + text + '">' + text + '</div>';
},
style: {
width: '50%'
},
useHTML: true
}
},
So goal is to have labels on the left side of the bar chart that are 50% of the width of the whole chart container.
You have an option for that in the plotOptions :
plotOptions: {
bar: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
inside: true
// ^^^^^^^^^^^^
}
}
},
The property inside :
For points with an extent, like columns, whether to align the data label inside the box or to the actual value point. Defaults to false in most cases, true in stacked columns.
And an example forked from the official documentation : http://jsfiddle.net/XXB9k/
EDIT :
There is another option to center the x labels (I don't know witch labels your are talking about), but there is a solution not far away from your code :
xAxis: {
...
labels: {
enabled: true,
x: this.width / 2,
}
}
An example : http://jsfiddle.net/QMPkh/
FINAL EDIT :
In fact you can simply use the width of the chart in the label formatter :
labels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function() {
return '<div style="width:' + (this.axis.width/2) +'px">'+this.value+'</div>';
},
useHTML: true
}
An example to show the result : http://jsfiddle.net/QMPkh/2/
Unfortunately width in percent is not supported, only in pixels.

Printing a highchart to show data for all the points

I have this chart:
http://jsfiddle.net/ECAM9/1/
And it works fine.
However when I print or export it, I want the resulting image or pdf file to look like this:
http://jsfiddle.net/rFzTG/
That means that I want every point to have info over it.
I was looking at this answer:
Highcharts add legend on export
And I tried adding this:
exporting:{
chartOptions:{
scatter: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function() {
return this.series.name +'</b><br/>'+ this.x +': '+ this.y +'°C';
}
},
}
}
},
But again, the jpg file I print is without the info.
One way:
1) use 'useHTML' in the datalabels
2) on chart load event, hide the datalabel elements
The chart will display without datalabels, since you hid them, but print with datalabels, since the chart was created with them
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/Z7csw/
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
useHTML:true,
formatter: function() {
return '<div class="datalabel">' +this.series.name +'</b><br/>'+
this.x +': '+ this.y +'°C</div>';
}
},
.
events:{
load:function() {
$('.datalabel').hide();
}
}
EDIT: -->
Ok, I have a quick example that works with printing here, based on comments below:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/Z7csw/6/
It's not perfect, but it does work...

How to illustrate angular data series in highcharts?

I have a data set where the series values are angles in degrees (0 to 360). Is it possible to plot a graph like the one illustrated here (ignore the green vertical line) in highcharts? Specifically, if any of the following criteria holds, the chart should avoid linking the two data points directly in the sense of passing through south (180), and should pass through north (0/360) instead:
A point is below 90 and the next one is above 270, or;
A point is above 270 and the next one is below 90.
Any help is appreciated.
What I would do to make this happen is to simply pre-process your data to create two series and then plot both of them onto the same plot. One series is for 0-179 and the other is for 180-359.
You may also want to consider a scatter plot instead of a line plot especially if your data in either of the series is not as smooth as the data in the example. Meaning that one data point is say 10 and the next one is 110 and then the next one after that is 12 or some such.
This code gives you an example, the data is provided by JSON but you should be able to just easily replace it with however your data comes in:
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
title: {
text: 'Wind Direction'
},
chart: {
renderTo: 'dataplot4',
borderWidth: 1,
defaultSeriesType: 'scatter',
zoomType: 'x'
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
marker: {
radius: 3,
states: {
hover: {
enabled: true
}
}
}
}
},
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime'
},
yAxis: {
tickInterval: 90,
min: 0,
max: 360,
title: {
text: 'Wind Direction (deg)'
}
},
tooltip: {
crosshairs: true,
formatter: function () {
return '<b>' + Highcharts.dateFormat('%e. %b %Y, %H:00', this.x) + ' AKST</b> ' +
this.series.name + ': ' + this.y + ' deg';
}
},
series: [
{
name: 'Wind Direction',
data: JSON.parse("[" + wind_dir + "]"),
pointStart: Number(startDateTime),
pointInterval: 3600000
}
]
});
});
</script>
I'd like to think that I have a jsfiddle for this somewhere, will update the answer when I dig it up.
EDIT: Here's a fiddle that shows the scatter plot in action. http://jsfiddle.net/Reality_Extractor/pNFYL/
