Synchronized Charts

[Nerviozzo96]

Hello every one, is there an option to synchronized panning/zooming option?

I mean if I do a zoom in one chart and then change to pan, can i change the option in the other to pan chart as well?

I let you my jsfiddle

Thanks!

@nerviozzo96,

Yes, it is possible to sync zoom / pan button across multiple charts. You can achieve this by triggering the click event on the zoom / pan button on all charts when a user clicks on it in one of the charts as shown below:

function syncZoomPanButtonClick() {
  var toolbars = document.getElementsByClassName("canvasjs-chart-toolbar");
  for(var j = 0; j < toolbars.length; j++) {
    toolbars[j].firstChild.addEventListener("click", function(e) {
      for(var j = 0; j < toolbars.length; j++){
        if(this != toolbars[j].firstChild && e.isTrusted === true) {
          toolbars[j].firstChild.click();
        }
      }
    });
  }
}

Please take a look at this JSFiddle for a working example with sample code.

Hi there, im having a little problem with this.
I want to have 2 charts with different values (that mean different maximums) with same width or margin.
jsfiddle
I let you an image to clarify what I mean

@nerviozzo96,

You can align y-axis across multiple charts by setting the margin property. The margin value has to be calculated based on the bounds of y-axis as shown in the code below –

var axisYBoundMax = 0;
for (var i=0; i<charts.length; i++) {
  axisYBoundMax = Math.max(axisYBoundMax, charts[i].axisY[0].bounds.x2);
}

for(var i = 0; i < charts.length; i++) {
  charts[i].axisY[0].set("margin", axisYBoundMax - (charts[i].axisY[0].bounds.x2 - charts[i].axisY[0].bounds.x1));
} 

Please take a look at this JSFiddle for complete working code.

Thanks, I guess the same applies for the x axis right?

Hi there, this dont work on chart updates. I let you the example
Try to hide and show Series multiple times

Yes, you can align x-axis across multiple chart using same logic as mentioned above.

You can reset the margin of y-axis to 0 before aligning the y-axis across multiple charts as shown in the code snippet below.

for(var i = 0; i < charts.length; i++) {
   charts[i].axisY[0].set("margin", 0);
}

This link decribes syncronized charts
https://canvasjs.com/javascript-charts/synchronized-charts/

It is populated with json $.get(“https://canvasjs.com/data/gallery/javascript/server-matrics.json”, function(data) {
for (var i = 1; i < data.length; i++) {…………….

Can anyone tell me the syntax to supply 4 graphs with data of this form instead
{ x: 1966 , y: 0.020},
{ x: 1967 , y: 0.030},
{ x: 1968 , y: 0.040},
Thanks !!!

@benove,

Passing datapoints as an array of objects to chart options should work fine in your case. Please find the code-snippet given below.

var chartOptions1 = {
    animationEnabled: true,
    theme: "light2",
    title:{
      text: "1st Chart"
    },
    data: [{
      type: "splineArea", 
      dataPoints: [
        { x: 1966 , y: 0.020},
        { x: 1967 , y: 0.025},
        { x: 1968 , y: 0.030},
        { x: 1969 , y: 0.050},
        { x: 1970 , y: 0.060},
        { x: 1971 , y: 0.070},
        { x: 1972 , y: 0.080},
        { x: 1973 , y: 0.050},
        { x: 1974 , y: 0.040},
        { x: 1975 , y: 0.020},
        { x: 1976 , y: 0.060},
        { x: 1977 , y: 0.060},
        { x: 1978 , y: 0.010},
        { x: 1979 , y: 0.030},
        { x: 1980 , y: 0.050},
        { x: 1981 , y: 0.010}
      ]
    }]
  };
.

Manoj,
Thank you very much, indeed, Now it works !
The only remaining detail is that zooming can’t be winded back with buttom
and zoomning works slightly different in the four graphs.

[Bengt Ovelius]

Hi
After playing around I got the sync + zoom work,
One further question is how to get different high graphs – probably modifying these rows

<style>
.row:after {
content: “”;
display: table;
clear: both;
}
.col {
float: left;
width: 100%;
height: 200px;
}
</style>

I don’t know how to share the complete code

Please take a look at this updated JSFiddle which fixes the issue related to zooming.
