Line Chart

To render a Line Chart, set the series type as “line” in the chart series. To change the line segment color, you can use the fill property of the series. By default, series visibility is visible. This property is used to control visibility of series.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart({
                  // ...
                series: [{
                    //Change type and color of the series.
                     type: 'line',         
                     fill: "#E94649",
                   // ...         
                }],
                  // ...
           });

    Change the line width

    To change the width of the line segment, you can use the width property in the series.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart({
                //...
                series: [{
                    //Change the width of line series
                     width: 3,         
                   // ...

    Change a point color

    You can change the color of a column by using the fill property of the point.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart({
                //   ...
                series: [{
                   //  Change the color of a column

                //    ...
    
            });

    Column width customization

    Width of the column type series can be customized by using the columnWidth property. Default value of columnWidth is 0.7. Value ranges from 0 to 1. Here 1 corresponds to 100% of available width and 0 corresponds to 0% of available width.

    NOTE

    Width of a column also depends upon the columnSpacing property, because columnSpacing will reduce the space available for drawing a column. This is also applicable for StackingColumn, StackingColumn100, Bar, StackingBar, StackingBar100, RangeColumn, HiLo, HiLoOpenClose, Candle and Waterfall charts.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $('#container').ejChart({
    
    		//Common settings for all series
    		commonSeriesOptions: {
        
    			//Width of columns in column type series
    			columnWidth: 0.7
    
    			//...        
    		},
    
    		//Settings specific to individual series
    		series: [{
    		
    			//Width of columns in column type series
    			columnWidth: 0.8
    
    			//... 
    		}],
    
    		//...
    
    	});

    Column with rounded corners

    Corners of the column chart can be customized by setting value to the cornerRadius property.
    The 4 corners are customized using the topLeft,topright,bottomleft,bottomright properties.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $('#container').ejChart({
    
    		//Common settings for all series
    		commonSeriesOptions: {
        
    			cornerRadius:20
    
    			//...        
    		}
    
    		//...
    
    	});

    Spacing between column series

    Spacing between column type series can be customized using the columnSpacing property. Default value of columnSpacing is 0. Value ranges from 0 to 1. Here 1 corresponds to 100% available space and 0 corresponds to 0% available space.

    NOTE

    Column spacing will also affect the width of the column. For example, setting 20% spacing and 100% width will render columns with 80% of total width. This is also applicable for StackingColumn, StackingColumn100, Bar, StackingBar, StackingBar100, RangeColumn, HiLo, HiLoOpenClose, Candle and Waterfall charts.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $('#container').ejChart({
    
    		//Common settings for all series
    		commonSeriesOptions: {
        
    			//Spacing between column series
    		columnSpacing: 0,
    
    			//...
    		},
    
    		//Settings specific to individual series
    		series: [{
        
    			//Spacing between column series
    			columnSpacing: 0.2,
    	
    			//...
    		}],
    
    		//...
    
    	});

    Cylindrical Chart

    To render a cylindrical chart, set the columnFacet property as “cylinder” in the chart series along with the series type.

    The following chart types can be rendered as cylinder in both 2D and in 3D view.

    • Column Chart, Bar Chart, Stacked Column Chart, Stacked Bar Chart, 100% Stacked Column Chart, 100% Stacked Bar Chart.
  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart({
           //   ...
           series: [{
               //To change the shape of the series
               columnFacet: 'cylinder',
               type: 'column',     
               //  ...         
           }],            
           //  ...
        });

    RangeColumn Chart

    To render a Range Column Chart, set the type as “rangeColumn” in the chart series. To change the RangeColumn color, use the fill property of the series.

    Since, the RangeColumn series requires two y values for a point, add the high and low value. High and Low value specifies the maximum and minimum range of the points.

    • When you are using the points option, specify the high and low values by using the high and low option of the point.

    • When you are using the dataSource option to assign the data, you have to map the fields from the dataSource that contains high and low values by using the series.high and series.low options.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart({
            
                // ...
                
                series: [{
                    //Set chart type to series
                     type: 'rangeColumn',        
                     fill: "#E94649",
                    //Use high and low values instead of y
                    points:[{ high: 6.1, low:0.7 },
                        //  ...         
                    ],
                   //  ...         
                }],
                //  ...
    
            });

    Pie Of Pie Chart

    To render the pie of pie chart, set the series type as pieOfPie. Pie of pie chart is used for displaying the data of a pie slice as another pie chart. The values in the second pie is displayed based on the splitMode property.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart(
    { //..
    series: [{	
    	points: [
               {x: 'Saudi Arabia', y: 58, text: '58%'},
               {x: 'Persian Gulf', y: 15, text: '15%'},
               {x: 'Canada', y: 13, text: '13%'},
               {x: 'Venezuela', y: 8, text: '8%'},
               {x: 'Mexico', y: 3, text: '3%'},
               {x: 'Russia', y: 2, text: '2%'},
    	    {x: 'Miscellaneous', y: 1, text: '1%'}
               ],	
    	type: 'pieOfPie',
     	splitValue:"10"
                 ]   //..       
    });

    Split Mode and Split Value

    The points to be displayed in the second pie is decided based on the splitMode and splitValue property.SplitMode property takes the following values.

    • Position – Have to split the data points based on its position
    • Value – Have to split the data points based on its Y value
    • Percentage – Have to split the points based on the percentage value
    • Indexes – The data points with the specified indexes are split separately
      By default, the splitMode is set to Value.
  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart(
    { //..
    series: [{	
        // .. 
    	splitMode:"Position",
     	splitValue:"3"
    }]   //..       
    });

    Changing Pie Of Pie Size

    The size of the second Pie can be customized by using the pieOfPieCoefficient property. The default value of pieOfPieCoefficient is 0.6.Its value ranges from 0 to 1.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart(
    { //..
    series: [{	
        // .. 
    	pieOfPieCoefficient : 1  
    }]   //..       
    });

    The following screenshot represents the pie of pie series with pieOfPieCoefficient as 1

    Customizing the Gap

    The distance between the two pies in the pie of pie chart can be controlled by using the gapWidth property. The default value is 50.

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart(
    { //..
    series: [{	
        // .. 
    	gapWidth:150
    }]   //..       
    });

    Render vertical Chart

    The isTransposed property is used for rendering the chart vertically.
    It is applicable only for Cartesian type series

  • JAVASCRIPT
  • $("#container").ejChart(
    { //..
    series: [{	
        // .. 
    	isTransposed:true
    }]   //..       
    });
