formatNumber(number [, formatString] [, culture])

Formats number according to the given formatString(optional) & culture(optional). Default formatString is “#,##0.##” & default culture is “en”.

Note
  • This is a static function under CanvasJS namespace and it can be used directly without instantiating a chart. Hence you can also use it outside the chart too for formatting numbers.
  • Can be very useful inside Custom Formatter Functions
  1. //Using CanvasJS.formatNumber.
  2. var  chart =  new  CanvasJS.Chart("container",
  3. {
  4. 	title:{
  5. 		text: "Chart with " + CanvasJS.formatNumber(100000) + " dataPoints" //gets formatted as 100,000
  6. 	},
  7. . 
  8. .
  9. });
  10.
