Here is my Problem:
I'm currently using a ColumnChart to display 6 label/value pairs.
When two labels are the same, the chart stacks them up, one on top of the other.
I want to display these duplicates side by side, their value might be the same or it might be distinct.
My first thought was to append a unique id to the label, but that's not possible according to the client. So, is there a way to tell the chart to also take a hidden id into consideration?
Someone suggested to do some sort of grouping, but I need to display each chart separate, as if they were distinct charts.
the chart's data provider is an array of these objects:
obj.description = "des";
obj.countV = 3;//some arbitrary number
obj.id = 2; //a unique id...
the chart code:
I found my solution:
append an index # at the end of each column label.
Use a labelFunction to remove the last char:
columnLabel.slice(0, -1);
that fooled the chart into thinking they're all uniques but display all duplicates side by side.

I'm trying to plot some data in Google spreadsheet:
And as you may see all of the series are in a same column and I can't use the any of the rows as headers. My plot looks like this:
I would appreciate if you could help me know how I can edit/add legend labels.
Unfortunately I don't think the graphs were intended for your data format.
The only way I've been able to work out how to add a header is by reformatting my data so I have the header at the top of my ranges.
So I suggest you split your data into separate columns so you have;
D2:D4, E2:E4, F2:F4 etc with D1, E1, and F1 as your header and then selecting "Use row 1 as your headers." From the data menu.
Alternatively, you could add labels to the series themselves. Although not ideal, it could be quicker than reformatting your data. On the data menu, click on the three dots of a data series to bring up a menu that allows you to add a label. Unfortunately this needs to be a cell so you'll have to have that header on your sheet some where.
I had the same question this year (2021), and it looks like there's support for it now. In short, you just have to double-click on the empty legend item for the series, and it'll give you a place to put text, directly in the chart.
Here's what my chart looked like (with no series titles):
If you double-click on one, you'll get a small text input area.
Type in your series name and then press enter or click outside of the input area.
Repeat this for each series, and you should be good to go.
I had the same problem because I was selecting only the data I wanted to include in the chart and not the entire table, headers and all. When you create a chart in Google Sheets and you want to use a row or column (or both) as strings that are included in the chart's labeling, you must select the entire table before choosing the Chart command from the Insert menu.
After doing so, you may need to do all or some of the following:
Switch rows/columns if your axes are not correct
Eliminate any rows/columns that you don't want represented by editing the Data Range field in the chart editor
Select Use column A as headers or Use row 1 as headers
You could also potentially use the add labels option when clicking on the 3 dots in the series section:
Double-click on the symbols in your legend, then double-click on the symbol for the series you would like to label; you should be able to directly enter your legend label now. You can do further text formatting using the chart editor on the right.
I took them to a new sheet. first selected only the X-axis and one of the columns that will appear as one. label. In this sheet, I made all the "labels" as a header of the sheet. and added them one by one as a series. and this time it. add them as a label.
obviously this is a workaround and the bug should be fixed :) hopefully.
I want to plot stacked column graph through Shinobi.
Please referer attached screen shot for desired graph.
Can anyone please suggest how to pass data point for the same.
Disclaimer: I am a developer at Shinobi Controls.
To get columns to stack you need to create a series for each column you wish to stack.
To get the series to stack, you must set each series' "stackIndex" property to the same value.
For example, in your image you will need 5 SChartColumnSeries with their "stackIndex" value set to the same value, lets say 1.
Now you can add one datapoint for each series with the same X value but with different Y values.
i get data for average time in seconds from google analytics, and i want display that data in piechart in minutes:seconds. Thank you for your answers
From pie chart Configuration Options there is no supported way for that.
Pie slice text/value is configured using option pieSliceText option and you can have none, percentage, value or name values.
For tooltip is similar: you can have both, value or percentage.
You can set your own legend with converted data from values to min:sec. How to do that is described in How to add Percentage and Total on the Legend of Google Pie Charts.
There is one completely unsupported possibility: to filter out DOM elements which contain values of your data using:
document.querySelectorAll('text[text-anchor=start]');
and than change value of element with converted value. But using that you will get at least one element which contains text and not data which should be converted. And this solution could break when google change DOM element attributes.
The subject of this question might not give the true scenario, please read all below, thanks.
I am developing a Scatter Plot based on following data (JSON - in a file simple.json):
{
"docs":
[
{"timestamp":"01","id":"100","quantity":"5","pay":"50","bp":"25","city":"Multan"},
{"timestamp":"02","id":"200","quantity":"10","pay":"100","bp":"50","city":"Lahore"},
{"timestamp":"03","id":"300","quantity":"3","pay":"30","bp":"15","city":"Multan"},
{"timestamp":"04","id":"400","quantity":"5","pay":"50","bp":"25","city":"Multan"},
{"timestamp":"05","id":"500","quantity":"6","pay":"60","bp":"30","city":"Lahore"},
{"timestamp":"06","id":"600","quantity":"15","pay":"150","bp":"75","city":"Islamabad"},
{"timestamp":"07","id":"700","quantity":"14","pay":"140","bp":"70","city":"Islamabad"},
{"timestamp":"08","id":"800","quantity":"18","pay":"180","bp":"90","city":"Islamabad"},
{"timestamp":"09","id":"900","quantity":"7","pay":"70","bp":"35","city":"Lahore"},
{"timestamp":"10","id":"1000","quantity":"20","pay":"200","bp":"100","city":"Islamabad"}
]

I am trying to develop a Re-Usable graph, where I can present user with available data columns (from above data). So user can select a certain column (say "id") for X axis and another column (say "quantity") for Y axis (till here everything is perfect and as per expectations). And later user can select another column and can click a button to plot that column on the graph (along with previously added columns).
Here comes the problem:
When I proceed with another column (say "pay") for Y axis, while keeping previously on the graph, new ones get plotted correctly (I am rescaling the axis based on new data as well). But the old ones DO NOT RE-ARRANGED. This is the actual problem. I am thinking to keep track of each column added (by storing column references in a separate array), so every time there's a new column, I will have to redraw the old ones again (should I?). But this doesn't look feasible in terms of D3's power or performance.
For this I also applied an anonymous class "update" to every circle drawn, so that I can pick all "update" circles, but here comes another issue, that how would I know the new place for these circles? Do I need to traverse the data again for that particular series? and have to do that drawing again? For every new series, keeping track of old-ones and redrawing them, will increase the processing over-head turn by turn. Is there any handy solution or built-in (d3's) mechanism to re-adjust previous drawing according to new scale?
Please suggest something. I am sure I am lacking some key points.
I am working on a project and need to add an additional image using the asp:chart control. Unfortunately, I've never had to use this control before and it's a bit complex to use, so I need some help.
Basically, I need to create a stacked Column chart with two legends and two columns. The first column is "income" and stacks three values. (Wages, interest and other.) The second column is "expenses" and stacks two values. (Mortgage, Other.) Each value has it's own value.
The legend for income should be on the left, the column for expenses to the right. These legends should display the texts and values for it's related value plus a 'Total' label with value.
For this task, I only have to deal with 5 values over two columns but the asp:chart control is huge and I'm drowning in all it's options. And they want it ready yesterday, so no pressure. It's already overdue... :-)
No, it's not homework. If it was, I would have practical documentation and the additional how-to information. Since my Boss expects me to add this, he just gave me absolutely no information to work with, except for the code which already contains several other charts, none of them like this one and all done by previous victims who each used their own coding style. Basically, the project code is a huge mess so useless as documentation. (And amazingly it works, as long as I only use asp:chart for these graphics.)
The biggest problem I'm having is stacking the values correctly. Since I have two columns and 3 values, it could be solved with three series, each with points for column 1 and 2. Unfortunately, this puts income and expense in the same label, which is not what I want.
If I make it 5 series, for every value one point, then the second column doesn't start at the right height. So that won't work either.
