Area 2D Chart Attributes

These attributes let you control a variety of functional elements on the chart. For example, you can opt to show/hide data labels, data values. You can also set chart limits and extended properties.

chart

: {

animation

: Boolean

[+]

This attribute gives you the option to control animation in your charts. If you do not want to animate any part of the chart, set this as 0.

Range: 0/1

animationDuration

: Number

[+]

This attribute sets the animation duration, if animation is set to 1.

Default value: 1 sec

palette

: Number

Using paletteColors attribute, you can specify your custom list of hex colors for the data items. The list of colors have to be separated by comma e.g., "paletteColors": "#FF0000, #0372AB, #FF5904...". The chart will cycle through the list of specified colors and then render the data plot accordingly. To use the same set of colors throughout all your charts in a web application, you can store the list of palette colors in your application globally and then provide the same in each chart JSON.

Range: List of hex color codes separated by comma

Using this attribute, you can customize the alignment of data labels (x-axis labels). There are 5 options: AUTO, WRAP, STAGGER, ROTATE or NONE. By default, this attribute is set to AUTO mode which means that the alignment of the data labels is determined automatically depending on the size of the chart. WRAP wraps the label text if it is too long to fit in one line. ROTATE rotates the labels vertically. STAGGER divides the labels into multiple lines.

On area charts, anchors (or marker points) are polygons which appear at the joint of two consecutive line/area points. These are indicators to show the position of data points. The anchors handle tool tips and links for the data points. So, if you opt to not render anchors on a chart, the tool tips and links won't function. You can, however, hide them by setting alpha to 0 and still enable tool tips and links. In area charts, anchors are set transparent by default. In case you wish to show the anchor, use anchorAlpha="100" attribute. You can customize all the facets of anchors using the properties below.

The following attributes help you control chart margins and paddings. FusionCharts Suite XT allows you manually customize the padding of various elements on the chart to allow advanced manipulation and control over chart visualization. You can also define the chart margins. Chart Margins refer to the empty space left on the top, bottom, left and right of the chart. That means, FusionCharts Suite XT will not plot anything in that space. It's not necessary for you to specify any padding/margin values. FusionCharts Suite XT automatically assumes the best values for the same, if you do not specify the same.

chart

: {

captionPadding

: Number

[+]

This attribute lets you control the space (in pixels) between the sub-caption and top of the chart canvas. If the sub-caption is not defined, it controls the space between caption and top of chart canvas. If neither caption, nor sub-caption is defined, this padding does not come into play.

Range: In Pixels

xAxisNamePadding

: Number

[+]

Using this, you can set the distance between the top end of x-axis title and the bottom end of data labels (or canvas, if data labels are not to be shown).

Range: In Pixels

yAxisNamePadding

: Number

[+]

Using this, you can set the distance between the right end of y-axis title and the start of y-axis values (or canvas, if the y-axis values are not to be shown).

Range: In Pixels

yAxisValuesPadding

: Number

[+]

This attribute helps you set the horizontal space between the canvas left edge and the y-axis values or trend line values (on left/right side). This is particularly useful, when you want more space between your canvas and y-axis values.

Range: In Pixels

labelPadding

: Number

[+]

This attribute sets the vertical space between the labels and canvas bottom edge. If you want more space between the canvas and the x-axis labels, you can use this attribute to control it.

Range: In Pixels

valuePadding

: Number

[+]

It sets the vertical space between the end of columns and start of value textboxes. This basically helps you control the space you want between your columns/anchors and the value textboxes.

Range: In Pixels

chartLeftMargin

[+]

Amount of empty space that you want to put on the left side of your chart. Nothing is rendered in this space.

Range: In Pixels

Range: In Pixels

canvasLeftMargin

: Number

[+]

This attribute lets you control the space between the start of chart canvas and the start (x) of chart. In case of 2D charts, the canvas is the visible rectangular box. In case of 3D charts, the canvas box is the imaginary box around the 3D canvas. Using this attribute, you can control the amount of empty space between the chart left side and canvas left side. By default, FusionCharts XT automatically calculates this space depending on the elements to be placed on the chart. However, if you want to over-ride this value with a higher value, you can use this attribute to specify the same. Please note that you cannot specify a margin lower than what has been calculated by the chart. This attribute is particularly useful, when you've multiple charts placed in a page and want all their canvas start position to align with each other - so in such a case, you can set same margin value (a value large enough that it doesn't get rejected by chart owing to it being lower than the calculated value) for all such charts in the page.

Range: In Pixels

Like canvasLeftMargin, this attribute lets you set the space between end of canvas and end of chart.

Range: In Pixels

Vertical data separator lines help you separate data blocks. These lines run through the height of the chart, thereby segregating the data into two different blocks. Vertical lines are defined as shown in the example below:


"data": [{

Trend-lines are horizontal lines that aid in interpretation of data with respect to some pre-determined value. For example, if you are plotting the sales data for the current year, you might want to show the previous year's average monthly sales as a trend indicator for ease of comparison. The line object, child of the trendlines object is used to add trend-lines to a chart.

Although the line object has to be defined within the trendlines object, the latter cannot be used to collectively customize trend-lines, because it does not have any attributes of its own.

The attributes of the line object, child of the trendlines object, are used to create and customize trend-lines for charts.

line

startValue

The starting value for the trendline. Say, if you want to plot a slanted trendline from value 102 to 109, the startValue will be 102.

[+]

The ending y-axis value for the trendline. Say, if you want to plot a slanted trendline from value 102 to 109, the endValue will be 109. If you do not specify a value for endValue, it will automatically assume the same value as startValue.

Range: Numeric Value

displayValue

: String

[+]

If you want to display a string caption for the trend line by its side, you can use this attribute. Example: displayValue='Last Month High'. When you don't supply this attribute, it automatically takes the value of startValue.

Color of the trend line and its associated text

Range: Hex Color Code

isTrendZone

dashGap

: Number

[+]

Sets the gap between consecutive dashes when trendline is rendered as dashed lines.

Range: 0/1

toolText

: String

[+]

Custom tool-text for this trendline/zone.

Trend-lines are horizontal lines that aid in interpretation of data with respect to some pre-determined value. For example, if you are plotting the sales data for the current year, you might want to show the previous year's average monthly sales as a trend indicator for ease of comparison. Cosmetics for all the trend-lines rendered can be attained using this set of attributes.

Although there are set of attributes of the line object, used to create and customize trend-lines, these set of attributes effect all the trend-lines rendered in your chart.

chart

: {

trendlineColor

: Color

[+]

Sets color of all the trend lines and its associated text in the chart.

Range: Hex Color Code

trendlineThickness

: Number

[+]

Sets transparency for all the trend lines in your charts.

Range: 0 - 100

showTrendlinesOnTop

: Boolean

[+]

Whether all the trend line/zone will be displayed over data plots or under them.

Range: 0/1

These attributes let you customize the display value set for trend-lines.

Note: These attributes belong to the chart object and not to the line object (child of the trendline object). They are, therefore, applied to all trend-lines on your chart.
