JavaScript/jQuery Chart - StackedAreaSeries.selectionStyle

Configures the appearance adopted by the series when a user selects it.

Type:

Object

NOTE
Though not provided out of the box, the selection capability can be implemented using the UI component API. Refer to the onPointClick property description for details.

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.

border

Configures the appearance adopted by the series border (in area-like series) or the series point border (in bar-like and bubble series) when a user selects the series.

Type:

Object

color

Specifies the color of the series in the selected state.

Default Value: undefined

This property supports the following colors:

You can also specify a custom pattern or gradient instead of a plain color. Call the registerPattern() or registerGradient() method to obtain a fill ID. Assign that value to the fillId field.

This functionality is available for the following Chart series:

jQuery
index.js
$(function(){
    $("#chartContainer").dxChart({
        // ...
        series: {
            // ...
            selectionStyle: {
                color: {
                    fillId: customPatternId
                }
            }
        }
    });
