Ragu Nathan,

Tooltip can be hidden for particular dataseries by setting toolTipContent to null. In case of shared tooltip, setting toolTipContent to null will hide information related to that particular dataseries from the tooltip.

@scroteau,

Thanks for your valuable feedback. We will reconsider this behavior in future.

@scroteau,

Can you kindly create sample project reproducing the issue you are facing and share it with us over Google-Drive or Onedrive so that we can run it locally at our end, understand the scenario better and help you out?

Ragu Nathan,

Sorry, it’s not possible to show tooltip for nearest datapoint when you hover a datapoint – even when tooltip is hidden for particular dataseries.

Ragu Nathan,

You can set toolTipContent to null in dataseries level to hide tooltip for particular dataseries when shared is set to false. Please take a look at this JSFiddle for an example.

However, the same can be done using contentFormatter as well. In this case, you will have to loop through all the entries & generate tooltip content to hide information related to one of the dataseries. Please find the code-snippet below.

contentFormatter: (e) => {
  var content = "";
  for(var i = 0; i < e.entries.length; i++) {
    if (e.entries[i].dataSeries.name != "Visits") {
      content += e.entries[i].dataSeries.name + " - " +  e.entries[0].dataPoint.y;
    }
  }
  return content === "" ? null : content;  
}

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

@scroteau,

Navigator is part of Stockchart and it shares the same x-axis range as the data present in all the charts. When navigator has different range than charts, it can’t give the preview of all the data present within the chart. When there is huge dataset, it might not be possible to zoom into smaller region using navigator. In such cases, you can use range-selector – either custom range buttons with smaller ranges or inputFields.

This combined with my previously submitted bug of not being able to zoom into “open-ended” regions means that it is effectively impossible for a user to zoom into the given region.

You can overcome this by setting minimum & maximum as addressed in the other topic.

@scroteau,

Zoom / Pan behavior is designed such that zooming is limited upto a certain region, so that user doesn’t end up zooming into a blank-region (region with no dataPoints). To zoom into a certain region, there should be a minimum of 3-4 dataPoints over the axis. Please refer to this forum thread for more information. Also, one can’t zoom outside the actual axis range (minimum & maximum). In your case, it’s getting cancelled as zooming happens outside the axis range. You can handle this by setting minimum and maximum of charts based on navigator.

stockChart.charts[0].axisX[0].set("minimum", stockChart.navigator.axisX[0].get("minimum"), false);
stockChart.charts[0].axisX[0].set("maximum", stockChart.navigator.axisX[0].get("maximum"));

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

Adam Pallozzi,

I assume every time I update CanvasJS I will lose my changes?

Yes, you will have to update your source-code on every product release / update.

Would you guys consider making a plugin system where we could register a module like that as a plugin so we don’t need to recreate it on each update?

Thanks for the suggestion. We will reconsider this suggestion for our future releases.

Adam Pallozzi,

Thanks for being a valuable customer of CanvasJS.

Please follow the below steps to add custom marker to CanvasJS Chart.
1. Add marker drawing logic in the end of drawMarker method of canvasjs.js (Source-Code) downloaded from My Account page.

else if(markerType === "customMarkerType") { 
    //marker drawing logic
}

2. Define the newly added markerType in dataseries

data: [{
    .
    .
    markerType: "customMarkerType"
    .
}]

Below code-snippet will help you in adding star as marker-type to CanvasJS Chart.

//Add the below lines at the end of drawMarker method
else if (markerType === "star") {
    var points = 6;
    ctx.strokeStyle = markerColor;

    ctx.beginPath();
    ctx.moveTo(x, y + markerSize);
    for (var i = 0; i < 2 * points + 1; i++) {
        var r = (i % 2 == 0) ? markerSize : markerSize / 2;
        var a = Math.PI * i / points;
        ctx.lineTo(x + r * Math.sin(a), y + r * Math.cos(a));
    };
    ctx.closePath();

    if (markerColor)
        ctx.fill();
}

//Define marker-type in chart-options
data: [{
    ...
    markerType: "star",
}]

@tiapoo,

Considering this as duplicate of Assigning different colors on toolTip. Hence closing the same.

@tiapoo,

Tooltip accepts the color of datapoint as it’s border-color by default & it seems to be working fine. Please refer to the screenshot below.

If you are still facing issue, can you kindly create JSFiddle & share it with us so that we can look into the code / chart-options being used, understand the scenario better and help you out?

@marcmnich,

jsPDF doesn’t support exporting canvas to pdf directly, please refer to this Stackoverflow thread for more information. Instead you can add chart image to PDF using addImage method of jsPDF. Please find the code-snippet below.

var canvas = $("#chartContainer .canvasjs-chart-canvas").get(0);
var dataURL = canvas.toDataURL();

var pdf = new jsPDF();
pdf.addImage(dataURL, 'JPEG', 0, 0);
pdf.save("download.pdf");

Please take a look at this JSFiddle for complete code.

@dhanya-balakrishnan,

The code shared in JSFiddle seems to be working fine. Can you kindly create sample project in PHP, upload it to Google-Drive or Onedrive & share the link with us so that we can look into the code, run it locally to understand the scenario better and help you out?

@pixeleo,

You can rotate the axis-labels by setting labelAngle property. In your case, you can set labelAngle: -90 to keep it vertical. Please refer to the documentation for complete list of available chart-options along with live-examples.

Charles,

Thanks for your valuable feedback. It’s not possible to control first & last label in axis as of now. We will reconsider this behavior for future versions. Meanwhile, you can workaround this by removing all axis labels & use striplines to show labels from viewportMinimum to viewportMaximum. Please take look at this JSFiddle for an example on the same.
