I'm trying to create a chart using CanvasJS but I'm getting the following error:
Uncaught TypeError: b[a].render is not a function

I've tried the same code on my machine and it's working fine, but when I upload it to my server, then I'm getting the previously mentioned error.
Does anyone has any idea what is wrong here?
Thanks!
The issue is a bug in Canvas.js - they are using "for...in" to iterate over an array, but if any other Javascript has extended the Array prototype they mistakenly assume the array is non-empty and you get the error (see Why is using "for...in" with array iteration a bad idea? for a discussion about this type of problem).
See my bug report: http://canvasjs.com/forums/topic/canvas-js-javascript-bug/ and fiddle reproducing this: http://jsfiddle.net/QwZuf/298/
If you're willing to use the non-minified code temporarily, you can patch this yourself by using "canvasjs.js" and locating the following (line 2406 in 1.7.0 GA):
for (index in plotAreaElements) {
plotAreaElements[index].render();
}
Wrap it in a simple length test and you should be fine until an official patch is available:
if (plotAreaElements.length > 0) {
for (index in plotAreaElements) {
plotAreaElements[index].render();
}
}
Edit: per the comment below, this bug has now been officially patched.

I'm working on an application that will generate some charts and I'm using chartjs to draw them.
The issue I'm facing is this: the charts will be generated with dynamic data. The application may generate up to 9 datasets and rarely they will have the same size. How can I make chartjs advance or fill the values when the datasets size won't match?
I saw some examples here at stackoverflow and even at chartjs github page but they didn't work me.
This is an example of what I have so far: https://jsfiddle.net/camarrone/49onz8no/1/
Two datasets with different data array. The first value for the second dataset doesn't exist hence it should be zero or null. Like this: https://jsfiddle.net/camarrone/d39a0qgw/

DEMO online:
I am not using x/y formatted datasets, so I kept looking. I ended up finding that inserting 'null' values solved my problem--the arrays can then be the same length, and not have drops to zero polluting the shapes.
However, note that this seems to not work with log scales on line graphs. Luckily, the only graphs I use uneven-length datasets on is probably best presented in linear form, but it is irritating.
Note also that you may want to utilize the { spanGaps: false } option.
Hi I am using canvasjs for making a chart. It is very simple to make a particular chart but here is the problem I want to have two different charts such that a pie chart would be inside of a doughnut chart.
I am not able to make one other inside. I have used the
display : inline-block
for the two div id but no effect. Could someone please suggest me how we can make that happen.
This is my code-
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://canvasjs.com/assets/script/canvasjs.min.js"></script>
<link type='text/css' rel="stylesheet" href='style.css' />
<script type="text/javascript">
window.onload = function () {
var chart = new CanvasJS.Chart("chartContainer", {
title:{
text: "My First Chart in CanvasJS"
},
data: [
{
// Change type to "doughnut", "line", "splineArea", etc.
type: "doughnut",
dataPoints: [
{ label: "apple", y: 10 },
{ label: "orange", y: 15 },
{ label: "banana", y: 25 },
{ label: "mango", y: 30 },
{ label: "grape", y: 28 }
]
}
]
});
chart.render();
var chart = new CanvasJS.Chart("chartContainerpie", {
data: [
{
// Change type to "doughnut", "line", "splineArea", etc.
type: "pie",
dataPoints: [
{ label: "apple", y: 10 },
{ label: "orange", y: 15 },
{ label: "banana", y: 25 },
{ label: "mango", y: 30 },
{ label: "grape", y: 28 }
]
}
]
});
chart.render();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<div id="chartContainerpie" style="height: 300px; width: 100%;></div>
<div id="chartContainer" style="height: 300px; width: 100%;"></div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
The CSS only contains the line for display block.
This is probably not the perfect answer but it will point you in right direction:
The idea is to change the background color of canvas to transparent and overlap the two canvas using position css
CSS
#chartContainerpie{
position: absolute;
top: 130px;
left: 0px;
}
#chartContainer{
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
JS
var chart = new CanvasJS.Chart("chartContainer", {
title: {
text: "My First Chart in CanvasJS"
},
backgroundColor: "transparent",
data: [{
// Change type to "doughnut", "line", "splineArea", etc.
type: "doughnut",
dataPoints: [{
label: "apple",
y: 10
}, {
label: "orange",
y: 15
}, {
label: "banana",
y: 25
}, {
label: "mango",
y: 30
}, {
label: "grape",
y: 28
}]
}]
});
chart.render();
var chart = new CanvasJS.Chart("chartContainerpie", {
backgroundColor: "transparent",
data: [{
// Change type to "doughnut", "line", "splineArea", etc.
indexLabelPlacement: "inside",
indexLabelFontColor: "white",
indexLabelFontSize: "14px",
type: "pie",
dataPoints: [{
label: "apple",
y: 10
}, {
label: "orange",
y: 15
}, {
label: "banana",
y: 25
}, {
label: "mango",
y: 30
}, {
label: "grape",
y: 28
}]
}]
});
chart.render();
Here is fiddle
I'm currently creating a system that produces different kind of graphs. I want to create a chart and table, that when a chart is DRILLDOWNED, the table will sync as well. Is there a way to output the current data presented by HighCharts to JSON? Then this JSON will be inputted into a datatable? Thanks!
check this JsFiddle Demo
You can obtain the id by e.seriesOptions.id which is the key to your data. Then you can use this id as the key to get appropriate data and update your data table from within the drillUp and drillDown events.

$(function() {
// Create the chart
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {

drillup: function(e) {
//alert('drill Up');
console.log(this);
console.log(e.seriesOptions.id);
console.log(this.options.series[0].name);
console.log(this.options.series[0].data[0].name);
},
drilldown: function(e) {
//alert('drill Down');
console.log(this);
console.log(e.seriesOptions.id);
console.log(this.options.series[0].name);
console.log(this.options.series[0].data[0].name);
}

The tooltip in my Highchart is behaving strangely. It is living its own life. It doesn't show the tooltip of the point on which I hover, but shows the tooltip of any point randomly.
Here is a JSFiddle example: http://jsfiddle.net/AeV7h/9/
$(function () {
var data=[[28,0],[24,3],[16,10]];
var param= { WodTag: "cur_spd", Name: "Current speed", Color: "#C6C6C6", LineStyle: "Solid", SeriesType: "line", LineWidth: 2, TickInterval: null, MinValue: null, MaxValue: null, Decimals: 2 };
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
height: 700,
width: 400,
plotBorderWidth: 1,
plotBorderColor: '#E4E4E4',
},
xAxis: {
title: {
useHTML: true,
text: param.Name + "( m/s )",
},
gridLineWidth: 1,
min: param.MinValue,
max: param.MaxValue,
gridLineDashStyle: 'Dot',
tickInterval: param.TickInterval
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Depth(m)',
},
reversed: true,
tickLength: 50,
gridLineDashStyle: 'Dot'
},
title: {
text: null,
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
tooltip: {
useHTML: true,
formatter: function () {
return this.y;
}
},
series: [{
name: param.Name,
data: data,
color: param.Color,
dashStyle: param.LineStyle,
lineWidth: param.LineWidth,
type: "line"
}]
});
});
Can anyone help and tell me why it is behaving like this, and how I can fix it?
Your problem is that your data is not sorted by increasing X value. If you read the Series.data documentation it says that (API):
Note data must be sorted by X in order for the tooltip positioning and data grouping to work.
You should always sort your data like this before handing it over to Highcharts. Highcharts doesn't sort any data. Doing it by hand for your example your data should look like this:
var data=[[16,10],[24,3],[28,0]];
As in this JSFiddle demonstration, and everything works as intended.
I'm trying to update a highcharts highstock chart with live data from a json file on my server.
now I have a chart that gets its data from a json file (that I create with php that requests the data from my MySQL database) like so:

$(function() {
$.getJSON('json/lastTradesOkcoinLTCCNY.json', function(data) {
Highcharts.setOptions({

// create the chart

So far no problems, I get a chart from the json file. But of course it doesn't update if new data becomes available (only if I reload the page) .
What I want to do is after loading this chart, add live data to it as it becomes available.
something like this example, but instead of random data the chart will be updated with data from a (second) live updating json file on my webserver. The json file will be created by php (this part is working just fine) But I can't figure out how to add the data from the json file to the my existing highstock chart.
I also found
this this example on highcharts.com and that more or less does what I try to do, but I can't integrate the 'requestData' function into my existing chart.
So what I want to do is use the 'requestData' function from the second example with the high stock chart I already have. My second json file (with the live data) looks the same as in the second example (timestamp, price):
[1389022968000,173.3]

nevermind, I figured it out myself...
