Configuring Spark Line Chart
FusionCharts Suite XT allows you to configure the functional and cosmetic properties of the spark line chart.
In this section, you will be shown how you can:
-
Define period blocks for the chart
-
Configure open, close, and high/low points
-
Configure line and anchor cosmetics
-
Show only points and no lines
-
Add trend-lines/trend-zones
-
Configure hover effects
Defining Period Blocks for the Chart
You can show period blocks on a spark line chart using colored bands, helping you to easily interpret the periods on the chart.
A spark line chart configured to show a period block looks like this:
{
"chart": {
"theme": "fint",
"caption": "Stock Price",
"subcaption": "Last month",
"numberPrefix": "$",
"chartBottomMargin": "30",
"periodlength": "7",
"periodcolor": "#cccccc",
"periodalpha": "50"

Given below is a brief description of the attributes used to define period blocks:
Attribute Name | Description |
---|---|
|
It is used to specify the number of data points that each period block will encapsulate. |
|
It is used to specify the hex code for the color that will be used to render the period block, e.g. #CCCCCC. |
|
It is used to specify the transparency for the period block. This attribute takes values between 0 (transparent) and 100 (opaque), e.g. 60. |
Configuring Open, Close, High, and Low Points
By default, the spark line chart highlights the open, close, high, and low points and also shows their value. You can configure the chart to:
-
Change the color of the open, close, high, and low points
-
Show/hide anchors
-
Show/hide anchor values

Attribute Name | Description |
---|---|
|
It is used to specify the hex code of the color that will be used to render the lines on the chart, e.g. #EDA345. |
|
It is used to specify the thickness of the lines on the chart, e.g. 5. |

It is used to specify the transparency of the lines on the chart. This attribute takes values between 0 (transparent) and 100 (opaque), e.g. 45. |

It is used to specify whether anchors should be drawn for the chart. Setting this attribute to |
|
It is used to specify the number of sides an anchor will have. This will determine the shape of the anchor. For example, an anchor with three sides will represent a triangle, an anchor with four sides will represent a square. |
|
It is used to set the radius, in pixels, of the anchor, e.g. 40. |
|
It is used to specify the hex code of the color that will be applied to the anchors, e.g. #333333. |
|
It is used to specify the transparency of the anchors. This attribute takes values between 0 (transparent) and 100 (opaque), e.g. 40. |

Attribute Name | Description |
---|---|

It is used to specify the starting value for the trend-line. For example, if you want to plot a slanted trend-line from value 102 to 109, the starting value will be 102. |

Attribute Name | Description |
---|---|
|
It is used to specify the hex code of the color that will be used to render the trend-line and its associated text, e.g. #AB3456. |
|
It is used to specify the thickness of the trend-line, e.g. 5. |
|
It is used to specify whether the trend-line will be rendered as a dashed line. Setting this attribute to |
|
It is used to specify the length of each dash, if the trend-line is rendered as a dashed line, e.g. 5. |
|
It is used to specify the gap between each dash, if the trend-line is rendered as a dashed line, e, g. 2. |
|
It is used to specify the transparency of the trend-line. this attribute takes values between 0 (transparent) and 100 (opaque), e.g. 50. |
Adding Trend-zones
A spark line chart rendered with a trend-zone looks like this:

It is used to specify the starting value for the trend-zone. For example, if you want to plot a trend-zone from value 102 to 109, the starting value will be 102. |
|
It is used to specify the ending value for the trend-zone. For example, if you want to plot a trend-zone from value 102 to 109, the ending value will be 109. |

It is used to specify the hex code of the color that will be used to render the trend-zone and its associated text, e.g. #543ACD. |
Configuring Hover Effects
You can use hover effects to improve the visual representation of your chart.
A spark line chart configured to enable hover effects looks like this:

"subcaption": "Last month",
"numberPrefix": "$",
"chartBottomMargin": "30",
"anchorRadius": "4",
"openHoverColor": "#9bd6fd",
"closeHoverColor": "#9bd6fd",
"highHoverColor": "#90ff90",
"lowHoverColor": "#fd6c6c"
},
"dataset": [
{
"data": [
{
"value": "38.42"
