Vue Chart - Error Bars

Error bars are used on charts to indicate an error or uncertainty in a reported measurement. They give a general idea of how precise the measurement is.

DevExtreme HTML5 JavaScript Charts Error Bars

Error bars can be generated either from concrete or calculated values. To generate one error bar, two values, high and low, are needed. If your data source provides concrete high and low values, assign the required data source fields to the highValueField and lowValueField properties of the series.valueErrorBar object.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#chartContainer").dxChart({
        // ...
        dataSource: [
            { arg: 1, val: 200, highError: 5, lowError: 3 },
            // ...
        ],
        series: {
            // ...
            valueErrorBar: {
                highValueField: 'highError',
                lowValueField: 'lowError'
            }
        }
    });

                </Series>
            </Chart>
        );
    }
}

export default App;

Alternatively, error bar values can be calculated according to an algorithm. In this case, choose the needed algorithm using the type property and specify the value to be used in calculation using the value property.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#chartContainer").dxChart({
        // ...
        series: {
            // ...
            valueErrorBar: {
                type: 'percent',
                value: 5
            }
        }
    });
});

        <dxo-value-error-bar

            [value]="5">
        </dxo-value-error-bar>
    </dxi-series>
</dx-chart>
import { DxChartModule } from "devextreme-angular";

                type="percent"
            />

} from 'devextreme-vue/chart';

export default {
    components: {
        DxChart,
        DxSeries,
        DxValueErrorBar
    }
}
</script>
React
App.js
import React from 'react';
import Chart, {
    Series,
    ValueErrorBar
} from 'devextreme-react/chart';

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <Chart ... >
                <Series ... >
                    <ValueErrorBar
                        value={5}
                        type="percent"
                    />
                </Series>
            </Chart>
        );
    }
}

export default App;

If error bars should have uniform settings, you can specify them using one of the commonSeriesSettings.valueErrorBar object. Individual series settings override common settings.

jQuery
JavaScript
$(function() {
    $("#chartContainer").dxChart({
        // ...
        series: {
            valueErrorBar: {
                // high priority
            }
        },
        commonSeriesSettings: {
            valueErrorBar: {
                // low priority
            }
        }
    });
});
