I have an ordinal bar chart that can have quite a lot of values on the x-axis. I'm trying to add a range chart to navigate the bar chart, as in this example
https://dc-js.github.io/dc.js/examples/focus-ordinal-bar.html
Here is my chart with the range chart.
Here it is filtered.
When I make a selection on the range chart, the main chart filters to those values as expected. However, all the other charts update as if this was a selection.
The behaviour I'm looking for is for no filtering to happen, all that should change is the bars shown on the main chart for navigation purposes. This is the way it behaves in the Focus Ordinal Bar example.
My bar chart and range chart below. I've tried changing the group and dimension of the range chart to copies of the group and dimension, but that didn't seem to have any effect.
barChartTemplate
.dimension (dimension)
.group (group)
.x (scaleLinear ().domain (linear_domain))
.xUnits (dc.units.integers)
.keyAccessor (kv => group.ord2int (kv.key))
.elasticY (true)
.brushOn (false)
.dimension (dimension)
.mouseZoomable (true)
.zoomScale ([4, 8])
.title (function (kv) {
return kv.key;
})
var rangeChart = dc.barChart ('#range');
rangeChart.filterHandler (x => {});
rangeChart
.dimension (dimension)
.group (group)
.margins ({left: 40, top: 2, right: 40, bottom: 0})
.height (20)
.x (scaleLinear ().domain (linear_domain))
.xUnits (dc.units.integers)
.keyAccessor (kv => group.ord2int (kv.key))
.valueAccessor (x => {
return x.value.count;
})
.elasticY (true)
.brushOn (true)
.centerBar (true)
.transitionDuration (0);
barChartTemplate.rangeChart (rangeChart);

I want to display percentages on the y-axis of a dc.js barchart that can dynamically change when filtering the chart itself or some other charts.
Here is my case:
var ndx = crossfilter(dataCsvInitial);
var all = ndx.groupAll();
var accCredLimDim = ndx.dimension(function(d) { return d.acct_curr_crlimit;});
Then, I group by bins:
var value_range_credlim = maxCredLim - minCredLim; // defined earlier...
var nb_of_bins_credlim = 50,
bin_width_credlim = value_range_credlim/nb_of_bins_credlim;
var accCredLimGrp = accCredLimDim.group(function(d) {return Math.floor(d/bin_width_credlim)*bin_width_credlim;});
And draw my bar chart:
var creditBar = dc.barChart("#creditDistrib");
creditBar
.width(600)
.height(250)
.margins({top: 10, right: 50, bottom: 30, left: 50})
.dimension(accCredLimDim)
.group(accCredLimGrp)
.transitionDuration(500)
.x(d3.scaleLinear().domain([minCredLim, maxCredLim]))
.xUnits(function(){return nb_of_bins_credlim;})
.elasticY(true)
.brushOn(true)
.xAxisLabel("Credit Limit")
I succeeded to do what I want initially just by customizing the yAxis().tickFormat() attribute of the bar chart, by dividing the tick value by the total number of rows being filtered at the moment:
creditBarChart.yAxis().tickFormat(function (d) {
return 100*d/all.value() + '%';
});
And I recompute these ticks every time a transition is being made, because my y-axis is elastic:
creditBar
.on("pretransition", function(){
creditBar.yAxis().tickFormat(function (d) {
if (!creditBar.hasFilter()){
return Math.trunc(100*d/all.value()) + '%';
}
});
});
As you can see, I don't update the ticks when the bar chart is being filtered. Indeed, when it is filtered I want the ticks to remain unchanged, as the y-axis should not change. However, because I am dividing the tick value by all.value() this rule cannot work when filtering the bar chart itself. The displayed percentages are obviously wrong.
This question is quite close to solving my problem: link but it is applicable only for categorical bar chart...
How can I display percentages on the y-axis ticks, that can change of values when filtering other charts and also when filtering the chart itself?
Is there a sort of all.value() that would be computed excluding the effect of filtering a specified chart?
Thanks!
Since you want the groupAll not to observe the filter on this chart, you should use the chart dimension's groupAll not the one on the crossfilter object. From the docs:
Note: a grouping intersects the crossfilter's current filters, except
for the associated dimension's filter. Thus, group methods consider
only records that satisfy every filter except this dimension's filter.
So, if the crossfilter of payments is filtered by type and total, then
groupAll by total only observes the filter by type.
That's kind of a mouthful, but I hope the intention is clear.
var accCredLimDim = ndx.dimension(function(d) { return d.acct_curr_crlimit;});
var all = accCredLimDim.groupAll();
Once you do that, you don't have to put an if statement in your tickFormat definition:
creditBar
.on("pretransition", function(){
creditBar.yAxis().tickFormat(function (d) {
return Math.trunc(100*d/all.value()) + '%';
});
});
The if statement was incorrect for a couple of reasons. First, there could be a filter on this chart and also filters on the other charts. Second, any accessor you call, like tickFormat, needs to return a value every time it is called. But this would return undefined if there was any filter on this chart, because that is the default return value in JS.
I'm trying to create a histogram using dc.js to display post counts aggregated by month. I've set up the crossfilter dimension and group to aggregate the data correctly but I can't get the widths of the resulting chart to fill the correct widths on the x axis.
My (simplified) code looks like this:
var ndx = crossfilter(items)
var dateDimension = ndx.dimension(d => d.date)
// group by month
var overviewGroup = dateDimension.group(d => {
if (d) {
return new Date(d.getUTCFullYear(), d.getUTCMonth())
}
})
var minMonth = new Date(dateDimension.bottom(1)[0].date.getUTCFullYear(), dateDimension.bottom(1)[0].date.getUTCMonth())
var maxMonth = new Date(dateDimension.top(1)[0].date.getUTCFullYear(), dateDimension.top(1)[0].date.getUTCMonth() + 1)
this.overviewChart
.height(60)
.minWidth(600)
.width(null)
.margins({top: 0, right: 10, bottom: 30, left: 40})
.dimension(dateDimension)
.centerBar(false)
.x(scale.scaleTime().domain([minMonth, maxMonth]))
.round(time.timeMonths.round)
.xUnits(time.timeMonths)
.group(overviewGroup)
.on('filtered', () => { this.displayItems = ndx.allFiltered() })
This displays the correct data on the y axis but the bars are only 1px wide. The chart in question is the smaller, lower chart - it's supposed to be the range chart for the higher-resolution one above (which aggregates posts by day and is displaying correctly) but that's for another question!
I get better results with .xUnits(() => { return overviewGroup.all().length - 1 }) which produces a wider bar and is closer to my intended result but it's still not correct:
I've pulled my code into a fiddle however in the fiddle it works more or less as expected: https://jsfiddle.net/y1qby1xc/9/
I would like to create a bar chart based on dates in x-axis. Labels should be displayed as month (i.e. Jan, Jan'17 - preferred). Within my data I have always first date of following months, i.e. 01Jan, 01Feb, 01Mar. I have created a chart but I am not able to make it aligned.
var chart = dc.barChart("#" + el.id);
var chCategory = ndx.dimension(function(d) {return d[chCategoryName];});
chValues = chCategory.group().reduceSum(
return parseFloat(d[chValueName]);});
//set range for x-axis
var minDate = chCategory.bottom(1)[0][chCategoryName];
var maxDate = chCategory.top(1)[0][chCategoryName];
chart
.width(800)
.height(200)
.x(d3.time.scale().domain([minDate,maxDate]))
.xUnits(d3.time.months)
.dimension(chCategory)
.group(chValues)
.renderHorizontalGridLines(true)
// .centerBar(true) //does not look better
.controlsUseVisibility(true)
.ordinalColors(arrColors)
.transitionDuration(1000)
.margins({top: 10, left: 80, right: 5, bottom: 20})
I have already read post: dc.js x-axis will not display ticks as months, shows decimals instead
but I am not able to implement it in a way that will keep correct sorting for different years.
dc.js takes the domain pretty literally - the x axis stretches exactly from the beginning to the end, disregarding the width of the bars or their placement. It's a design bug.
Here are two workarounds.
keep bars centered and add padding
If you're using elasticX you can manually correct it like this:
chart.centerBar(true)
.xAxisPadding(15).xAxisPaddingUnit('day')
If you're just setting the domain manually, that's
minDate = d3.time.day.offset(minDate, -15);
maxDate = d3.time.day.offset(maxDate, 15);
align the ticks to the left of bars and correct the right side of the domain
You don't say what problem you run into when you don't center the bars. But I know the right bar can get clipped.
If you want the elasticX effect, you can implement it manually like this, offsetting the right side by a month (example):
function calc_domain(chart) {
var min = d3.min(chart.group().all(), function(kv) { return kv.key; }),
max = d3.max(chart.group().all(), function(kv) { return kv.key; });
max = d3.time.month.offset(max, 1);
chart.x().domain([min, max]);
}
chart.on('preRender', calc_domain);
chart.on('preRedraw', calc_domain);
Or without elasticX that's just:
maxDate = d3.time.month.offset(maxDate, 1);
I am working on dc.js, i have draw pieChart
pieChart.width(300)
.height(200)
.transitionDuration(1500)
.dimension(startValue)
.group(startValueGroup, "StartValue")
.radius(100)
.minAngleForLabel(0.5)
.legend(dc.legend().x(230).y(0))
.title(function(d) {
return d.key + ": " + d.value;
})
.renderTitle(true)
.on("filtered", function (chart) {
dc.events.trigger(function () {
//console.log(total_payment);
});
});
Now, I want to set specific x axis value. Currently, pieChart taking center position of define width and height. That mean it's taking position of (150,100). I want to change this position to (100, 100).
How can i change position of x axis as per above code?
You can't set this directly in the dc options, but you can modify these values after the chart has been rendered. Assuming that "pie" is the ID of the DOM element that you rendered the pie chart into, you can do
d3.select("#pie > svg > g").attr("transform", "translate(100,100)");
I know it is an old post and that the answer works perfectly but when the chart is part of a bigger system (several charts) I found easier to add the above command directly to the chart by doing this:
pieChart.on('renderlet', function (chart) {
chart.select("svg > g").attr("transform", "translate("100,100)");
});
Edit:
Actually I just found out you can do:
.cx(100)
.cy(100)
which will set the centre of the pie chart to 100, 100 before render.
jsFiddle:

I have a bar chart set up that graphs a users number of trips by day
tripVolume = dc.barChart("#trip-volume")
.width(980) // (optional) define chart width, :default = 200
.height(75) // (optional) define chart height, :default = 200
.transitionDuration(0) // (optional) define chart transition duration, :default = 500
.margins({ top: 10, right: 50, bottom: 30, left: 40 })
.dimension(tripsByDateDimension) // set dimension
.group(tripsByDateGroup) // set group
// (optional) whether chart should rescale y axis to fit data, :default = false
.elasticY(false)
// (optional) whether chart should rescale x axis to fit data, :default = false
.elasticX(false)
// define x scale
.x(d3.time.scale().domain([tripsByDateDimension.bottom(1)[0].startDate, tripsByDateDimension.top(1)[0].startDate ]))
// (optional) set filter brush rounding
.round(d3.time.day.round)
// define x axis units
.xUnits(d3.time.days)
// (optional) whether bar should be center to its x value, :default=false
.centerBar(true)
// (optional) render horizontal grid lines, :default=false
.renderHorizontalGridLines(true)
// (optional) render vertical grid lines, :default=false
.renderVerticalGridLines(true)
.brushOn(false);
The graph displays fine but I would like to filter it using some jQuery controls.
When the user selects the date I am trying to add a filter to the chart, the filter gets added but the chart does not change, even if I redraw() or render().
This is how the crossfilter is setup:
tripsCx = crossfilter(data.rows);
var allTripsGroup = tripsCx.groupAll();
var tripsByDateDimension = tripsCx.dimension(function (d) { return d.startDate; });
var tripsByDateGroup = tripsByDateDimension.group(d3.time.day);
The following are some of the methods I have used to try to apply a filter:
This should use the filterRange:
d.filter(d.dimension().top(20)[19], d.dimension().top(20)[0]);
FilterFunction:
d.filter(function (d) {
return d.getTime() > start.valueOf() && d.getTime() < end.valueOf();
});
FilterExact:
d.filter(d.dimension().top(20)[0]);
I also tried bypassing the chart and applying the filter directly on the dimension:
d.dimension().filterFunction(function (d) {
return d.getTime() > start.valueOf() && d.getTime() < end.valueOf()
});
Nothing I have done causes the chart to change.
I am beginning to think that I have the wrong expectation of what the filter function should do?
How can I manually filter the data in the dimension to have the chart updated?
I don't want to use a brush.
I will be filtering the data based on different criteria, I'm just trying to get the simple case working first.
I've spent a couple of days on this now and I'm at a loss as to what to try next.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Have you tried to reset your x property of the graph after setting the crossfilter filter
I have a somewhat similar case and what I do after each action that changes the filtered values is something along the lines of
.x(..).dimension(...).group(...)
after creating/setting the filters
Tried to do something like that
$('#filter').on('click', function(){
var minDate = tripsByDateDimension.top(5)[4].startDate;
var maxDate = tripsByDateDimension.top(5)[0].startDate;
console.log(tripVolume.filters());
tripVolume.filter([minDate, maxDate]);
tripVolume.x(d3.time.scale().domain([minDate,maxDate]));
console.log(tripVolume.filters());
dc.redrawAll()
});

Better answer per the discussion in the comment is to add the filter to the dimension, not the chart
Finally, one needs to realize what is mentioned in https://github.com/square/crossfilter/wiki/API-Reference#group-map-reduce
Note: a grouping intersects the crossfilter's current filters, except for the associated dimension's filter. Thus, group methods consider only records that satisfy every filter except this dimension's filter. So, if the crossfilter of payments is filtered by type and total, then group by total only observes the filter by type.
