I want to set a minimum height on a stacked bar so that it always shows no matter how small the value.
Example:
If the stacked values are relatively close, the bars show no problem:

But if the values differ by a lot, then the smaller bar is not visible on the graph:
http://i40.tinypic.com/15rxwz6.png
I tried reading through the docs but didn't find any options for this. Help is appreciated!
Try to assing the smaller values to an other yaxis, so the graph will show 2 different yaxes, the first with a big interval, the second with an interval that permits to show correctly the smaller values (if you want to show the difference between the two kind of data, you could use min and max on the smaller yaxis).
axes: { [...], yaxes: { -big values- }, y2axes: { -small values-, min: -10, max: 10 }}
Don't know if that answer would be useful to you.

I've spent a lot of time finding the solution, but i can't see any property in AmChatrts documentation that can align balloons not vertically. Actually, I just want to see all balloons, but not in one column. Can anybody help me?
There is currently no way to make the balloons stack in any different way than in once column. However, there are a few alternatives you can consider.
1) Displaying just one balloon.
To do that, set oneBalloonOnly to true:
var chart = AmCharts.makeChart("chartdiv",{
...
"chartCursor": {
"oneBalloonOnly": true
}
});
This will make the cursor display just one balloon of the closest graph.
2) Disable balloons and use a legend instead.
To disable balloons, simply set [valueBalloonsEnabled][3] in chart cursor's settings to false.
var chart = AmCharts.makeChart("chartdiv",{
...
"chartCursor": {
"valueBalloonsEnabled": false
},
"legend": {}
});
The legend will show relative value next to each graph title when you hover over the chart.
3) Consolidate values from multiple graphs into a single balloon.
To do that, use graph's balloonText property. It lets you reference to any field in data, so you can make it display values from any graph.
Here's a good example of the above.
Here's a good demo on how to do that.
I am using the pack layout for packing different no of equal sized circles. I have a group of clusters to be visualized. So I am calling pack function for each cluster of circles. In all the d3 examples the diameter is either calculated with the given size or fixed diameter. I would like to calculate it according to the no of circles to be packed. So how do I calculate the packing circle diameter?
is there any formula so that I can pack the circles without wasting the space.
If you truly don't care about relative sizing of the circles, then you could make your JSON file represent only the data you care about(say, names) and feed your packing function a dummy value that the 'value' accessor function is expecting.
For instance:
var circleChildren = [{
"value": 1
}, {
"value": 1
}, {
"value": 1
}, {
"value": 1
}];
would give you a JSON object that you can use as children for your packing function:
var circleInput = Object();
circleInput.children = circleChildren;
You can verify that in your console by running:
bubble.nodes(circleInput)
.filter(function (d) {
return !d.children; //we're flattening the 'parent-child' node structure
})
where bubble is your D3 packing bubble variable.
Here's a fiddle that demonstrates that. It may have some extra things but it implements what you're looking for. In addition, you can play around with the number of circles by adding more dummies in the JSON file, as well as changing the SVG container size in the diameter variable. Hope that helps!
EDIT: The size of your layout(in this case, a misnomer of the 'diameter' variable) directly determines the size and diameter of your circles within. At some point you have to assign the pack.size() or pack.radius() value in order for your circles to display within a layout(documentation ):
If size is specified, sets the available layout size to the specified two-element array of numbers representing x and y. If size is not specified, returns the current size, which defaults to 1×1.
Here you have several options:
If you want your circles to be 'dynamically' sized to your available element's width (that is, if you want them to cover up all the element width available) then I'd recommend you get your element's width beforehand, and then apply in your pack() function. The problem is then you have to think about resizing, etc.
If you want to keep the maximum sizing available, then you have to make your viz responsive. There's a really good question already in SO that deals with that.
I know this isn't the full solution but hopefully that points you in the right direction for what you're trying to do.
FURTHER EDIT:
All of a sudden, another idea came to mind. Kind of an implementation of my previous suggestion, but this would ensure you're using the maximum space available at the time for your circle drawing:
zone = d3.select("#myDiv");
myWidth = zone.style("width").substring(0, zone.style("width").length - 2);
I am trying to implement a horizontal bar graph using jqplot library.
In my case, some of the bars of the graph might show extraordinary spike so for example if the 3 bars of my graph have data value of 150(max), the spiked bar might have a data value of 1000.
To accomodate this requirement, I went through the documentation of jqplot and found out that they have something called "breakpoint" to break the axes at some particular place.
http://www.jqplot.com/docs/files/jqplot-linearAxisRenderer-js.html#$.jqplot.LinearAxisRenderer.breakPoints
Now suppose my data for the series looks like this :
[100, 150, 50, 250, 1200, 100]
How in the above case can i make sure that jqplot inserts a breakpoint after 250 and continues the axes ticks at 1200?
[Edited] Ok, so after using the below code I am able to get the breakpoints working:
chart.axes.xaxis.breakPoints=[10,100];
chart.replot();
(i also went through the jqplot source and found out that for breakpoints to work, we need to manually set the ticks, which I did)
But my original problem is still at large!
Suppose my series looks like
[100, 200, 300, 20000]
In this case, even if I use breakpoints, my 3 bars which are of considerably lesser weight seems very tiny as compared to the 4th bar (20000 weight)
this makes the graph unreadable.
Can some one please suggest a way out of this?
"How to implement breakpoints": A replot of data as mentioned above, is not the right way to use breakpoints:
chart.axes.xaxis.breakPoints=[10,100]; chart.replot();
Hava a look on that piece of code, I solved the breakpoint issue:
Having all data values of my barchart < 200 exept of one bar value > 850 i would like to set a breakpoint between 250 and 850.
And here it's how this can be done:
axes: {
xaxis: {
renderer: $.jqplot.CategoryAxisRenderer,
ticks: ticks
},
yaxis: {
ticks: [0,50,100,150,200,250,275,825,850,900,950],
tickOptions: {
formatString: '%.0d'
},
renderer: $.jqplot.LinearAxisRenderer,
rendererOptions: {
breakPoints: [275,825],
breakTickLabel: "≈",
forceTickAt0: true
}
}
Important:
Use the LinearAxisRenderer.
add your ticks manually in an array.
set the breakpoint with the rendererOptions.
The Array with the ticks, HAS TO CONTAIN the values, which you like to set the breakpoints in the rendererOptions.

P.S.: I also have a picture of the graph, but you don't allow me to post images until I get 10 reputations.
I'm trying to visualize 2 series but when I visualize them together, the dates don't go in sequential order anymore.
Here is the fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/hohenheim/6R7mu/21/ Notice the weird x-axis.
Is there a way to fix the x axis on nvd3?
The data looks like this:
data1 = [{
"date": 1396828800,
"impressions": 49145385
}, {
"date": 1396915200,
"impressions": 46704447
} ....
The NVD3 "multiBarChart" uses an ordinal (category) scale, so it will only display the x-values you give it, in the order in which they are added to the scale. Because your two series only partially overlap on the x axis that's causing problems.
Unlike other NVD3 chart types, the multiBarChart doesn't give you the option of setting your own scale -- it needs to use an ordinal scale in order to generate even widths for the bars. However, you can set the x domain (the list of categories to use for each bar), by calling chart.xDomain(arrayOfXValues).
The array will need to be an ordered array of Date values that spans your data. In order to generate it, you'll need the d3 time intervals range functions. You might also need the d3.extent function to find your max and min values.
I have the following graph: http://synicworld.com/media/graph.png
Is there a way to get the pointlabel to show on the bars that have maximum value?
pointLabels {
edgeTolerance: 100
}
Looks like it's just edgeTolerance, which I had tried before, but not with a value high enough.
pointLabels {
edgeTolerance: -20
}
This will allow rendering of point labels even if they're too close to the edge. The negative value means there might be overlap onto the chart.
