jQuery Chart - RangeBarSeries

All the settings in this section are specified as follows:

• The commonSeriesSettings object
  Specifies settings for all series in a Chart.

• The commonSeriesSettings.rangebar object
  Specifies settings for all series of the rangebar type.

• An object in the series array
  Specifies settings for an individual series.

If the Chart contains many series points, displaying all of them may lower its performance. In this case, it is better to aggregate the series points, or replace a group of them with a single point. The group includes only those points that fall within the same interval on the argument axis. See aggregationInterval and aggregationGroupWidth for details on dividing the axis into intervals. Alternatively, series points can be aggregated by categories.

The Chart provides several aggregation methods, which differ depending on the series type, and a capability to implement a custom aggregate function. To enable data aggregation for the series, set the aggregation.enabled property to true.

Each point in a range-like series has one argument and two values. Arguments are provided by the argumentField; values are provided by the rangeValue1Field and rangeValue2Field.

Commonly, when a chart contains several series, many of them have the same argument field. In this case, assign the name of this field to the argumentField property of the commonSeriesSettings object. If a series must have a unique argument field, specify the same property, but do so in the series object within the series array.

When there are multiple value axes in a chart, series need to know exactly which axis they are bound to. By default, all of them are bound to the first axis in the valueAxis array. To bind a series to another axis, assign the name of the axis to the axis series property.

Set this property to identical values for the series you want to collect in a single group.

This property accepts a value from 0 to 1 that specifies the correlation between the empty space on a bar's sides and the bar's width: 0 - the bar occupies the whole allocated space; 1 - virtually hides the bar creating a lot of empty space.

• Specify the Bar Width
• barGroupPadding
• series.minBarSize

A bar's maximum width is limited. In single-series charts, it cannot be greater than the interval between two major ticks. In multi-series charts, it depends on the number of bars in the parent group and this group's actual width. See the Specify the Bar Width article for more information.

• barGroupWidth
• series.minBarSize

Declared in commonSeriesSettings, the border settings apply to all series in the chart. Declared in a series configuration object, the border settings apply to this particular series only. The series-specific border settings override the common ones.

This property supports the following colors:

• Hexadecimal colors
• RGB colors
• RGBA colors
• Predefined/cross-browser color names
• Predefined SVG colors
• Paint server address

Specified in the commonSeriesSettings object, this property colors all series in the chart. To color an individual series, specify this property in the series object within the series array.

When a user points to a series, it may react in one of the following ways depending on the value of the hoverMode property.

hoverMode	Result
"onlyPoint"
"allSeriesPoints"
"allArgumentPoints"
"none"

See Also

• hoverStyle - specifies the appearance of series in the hover state.

Declared in commonSeriesSettings, hoverStyle applies to all series in the chart. Declared in a series configuration object, hoverStyle applies to this particular series only. The series-specific hoverStyle overrides the common one.

Data points that have the null value do not produce actual series points. Because of this, series may be drawn with unnecessary gaps where missing points should have been. To remove these gaps, set the ignoreEmptyPoints property to true.

Declared in commonSeriesSettings, the label settings apply to all point labels in the chart. Declared in a series configuration object, the label settings apply only to the point labels that belong to this particular series. The series-specific label settings override the common ones.

    $("#chartContainer").dxChart({

If the number of points in a series increases over time, there comes a time when it becomes so massive that displaying labels for them makes the chart too cluttered. In this instance, to keep the chart clear to the viewer, specify a limit for the number of point labels using the maxLabelCount property. Once this limit is exceeded, all point labels of the series will be hidden.

If this property is not specified, the series will belong to the default pane.

• panes - declares a collection of panes.

Each point in a range-like series has one argument and two values. Arguments are provided by the argumentField; values are provided by the rangeValue1Field, rangeValue2Field.

If you use a series template, specify the value field properties in the commonSeriesSettings object. Otherwise, do this in the series object within the series array.

When a user selects a range bar, its series may react in one of the following ways depending on the value of the selectionMode property.

selectionMode	Result
"onlyPoint"
"allSeriesPoints"
"allArgumentPoints"
"none"

See Also

• pointSelectionMode - specifies whether only one or several range bars can stay selected.
• series.selectionStyle - specifies the appearance of range bars in the selected state.
• pointSelectionChanged - an event that fires after the selection state of a range bar has been changed.

Declared in commonSeriesSettings, selectionStyle applies to all series in the chart. Declared in a series configuration object, selectionStyle applies to this particular series only. The series-specific selectionStyle overrides the common one.

This property allows you to associate virtually any required data with a series point. This data will be stored in the tag field of the Point object.

Commonly, a chart contains several series, and many of them have the same tagField value. In this case, specify the tagField property in the commonSeriesSettings object. If a series must have a unique tagField value, specify the same property, but do so in the series object within the series array.

• series.tag - associates data with an entire series.

• Series.show() - shows the series at runtime.
• Series.hide() - hides the series at runtime.
