Size for Container
The chart can render to its container size. Set the size via inline styles or CSS as shown below.
<div id='container'>
<div id='element' style="width:650px; height:350px;"></div>
</div>import { Chart, LineSeries, Category } from '@syncfusion/ej2-charts';
Chart.Inject(LineSeries, Category);
let chartData: Object[] = [
{ month: 'Jan', sales: 35 }, { month: 'Feb', sales: 28 },
{ month: 'Mar', sales: 34 }, { month: 'Apr', sales: 32 },
{ month: 'May', sales: 40 }, { month: 'Jun', sales: 32 },
{ month: 'Jul', sales: 35 }, { month: 'Aug', sales: 55 },
{ month: 'Sep', sales: 38 }, { month: 'Oct', sales: 30 },
{ month: 'Nov', sales: 25 }, { month: 'Dec', sales: 32 }
];
let chart: Chart = new Chart({
primaryXAxis: {
valueType: 'Category'
},
series:[{
dataSource: chartData,
xName: 'month',
yName: 'sales',
type: 'Line'
}],
width:'650px',
height: '350px'
}, '#element');<!DOCTYPE html>

Set the chart size directly using the width and height properties.
In Pixel
You can set the size of chart in pixel as demonstrated below.
import { Chart, LineSeries, Category } from '@syncfusion/ej2-charts';
Chart.Inject(LineSeries, Category);
let chartData: Object[] = [
{ month: 'Jan', sales: 35 }, { month: 'Feb', sales: 28 },
{ month: 'Mar', sales: 34 }, { month: 'Apr', sales: 32 },
{ month: 'May', sales: 40 }, { month: 'Jun', sales: 32 },
{ month: 'Jul', sales: 35 }, { month: 'Aug', sales: 55 },
{ month: 'Sep', sales: 38 }, { month: 'Oct', sales: 30 },
{ month: 'Nov', sales: 25 }, { month: 'Dec', sales: 32 }
];
let chart: Chart = new Chart({
primaryXAxis: {
valueType: 'Category'
},
series:[{
dataSource: chartData,
xName: 'month',
yName: 'sales',
type: 'Line'
}],
// Width and height for chart in pixel
width: '650', height: '350'
}, '#element');<!DOCTYPE html>

</html>In Percentage
When percentage values are used, the chart dimensions are relative to the container. For example, a height of 50% renders the chart to half the container height.
import { Chart, LineSeries, Category } from '@syncfusion/ej2-charts';
Chart.Inject(LineSeries, Category);
let chartData: Object[] = [
{ month: 'Jan', sales: 35 }, { month: 'Feb', sales: 28 },
{ month: 'Mar', sales: 34 }, { month: 'Apr', sales: 32 },
{ month: 'May', sales: 40 }, { month: 'Jun', sales: 32 },
{ month: 'Jul', sales: 35 }, { month: 'Aug', sales: 55 },
{ month: 'Sep', sales: 38 }, { month: 'Oct', sales: 30 },
{ month: 'Nov', sales: 25 }, { month: 'Dec', sales: 32 }
];
let chart: Chart = new Chart({
primaryXAxis: {
valueType: 'Category'
},
series:[{
dataSource: chartData,
xName: 'month',
yName: 'sales',
type: 'Line'
}],
// Width and height for chart in percentage
width: '80%', height: '90%'
}, '#element');<!DOCTYPE html>

450pxas the height and window size as its width.
Note: When no size is specified, the chart defaults to a height of450pxand uses the window width.
