Apply Different Themes using Plain JS
In FusionCharts Suite XT you can manually set the cosmetics and functional attributes for each chart in the corresponding JSON/XML file. This can work if you deal with only a small number of charts. As the number of charts increases so does your hassles. FusionCharts Suite ships with predefined themes which you can use to set the visual appearance or the behavior of your chart.
FusionCharts Suite XT ships with the following predefined themes:
fusion
(since v3.13.0)gammel
(since v3.13.0)candy
(since v3.13.0)zune
ocean
carbon
This article focuses on how you can apply different themes to the chart at runtime. Click any radio button, to see how the look and feel of the chart change with each theme.
A chart configured to change the theme, is shown below:
{
"chart": {
"caption": "Countries With Most Oil Reserves [2017-18]",
"subCaption": "In MMbbl = One Million barrels",
"xAxisName": "Country",
"yAxisName": "Reserves (MMbbl)",
"numberSuffix": "K",
"theme": "fusion"
},
"data": [
{
"label": "Venezuela",
"value": "290"
},
{
"label": "Saudi",
"value": "260"
},
{
"label": "Canada",
"value": "180"
},
{
"label": "Iran",
"value": "140"
},
{
"label": "Russia",
"value": "115"
},
{
"label": "UAE",
"value": "100"
},
{
"label": "US",
"value": "30"
},
{
"label": "China",
"value": "30"
}
]
}
The full code of the above sample is given below:
import FusionCharts from 'fusioncharts';
import Charts from 'fusioncharts/fusioncharts.charts';
import FusionTheme from 'fusioncharts/themes/fusioncharts.theme.fusion';
// Add the chart and theme as dependency
FusionCharts.addDep(Charts);
FusionCharts.addDep(FusionTheme);
// Create an Instance with chart options
var chartInstance = new FusionCharts({

height: '400',
width: '700',
dataFormat: 'json',
renderAt: 'chart-container',

if (!window.__sample_theme_change) {

}
}
});// Render
chartInstance.render();
The above chart has been rendered using the following steps:
Include the necessary libraries and components using
import
. For example,fusioncharts
library, etc.Add the chart and theme as dependency.
Store the chart configuration in a JSON object. In the JSON object:
- Set the chart type as
column2d
. Find the complete list of chart types with their respective alias here . - Set the width and height of the chart in pixels.
- Set the
dataFormat
as JSON. - Embed the json data as the value of
dataSource
.
- Set the chart type as
beforeRender
event is called to update theme fromfusion
to any other theme.Radio buttons are created inside the
<div>
to choose a theme from:- fusion
- gammel
- candy
- zune
- ocean
- carbon
Functionalities are added to the radio buttons to update the theme at runtime.
