Class that represents a collection of linked data-points inside a SpiderChart.

Given data is visualized in the form of a polygon, where each SpiderPoint is an edge along an Axis. This polygon can be styled with 3 independent areas:

  • fill
  • border
  • points

Data is pushed with addPoints in form: { axis: string, value: number }

Methods

  • Adds an arbitrary amount of SpiderPoints to the Series.

    Animates transition if its enabled on owning chart.

    Returns

    Object itself

    Parameters

    • Rest ...points: SpiderPoint[]

      List of SpiderPoints as {'axis': string, 'value': number}

    Returns SpiderSeries

    Parameters

    • state: boolean

    Returns SpiderSeries

  • Configure formatting of Cursor ResultTable when pointing at this series.

     // Example usage
    SpiderSeries.setCursorResultTableFormatter((tableBuilder, series, value, axis) => {
    return tableBuilder
    .addRow(`Pointing at`, '', series.getName())
    .addRow(`Category:`, '', axis)
    .addRow(`Value:`, '', value.toFixed(1))
    })

    The general syntax of configuring ResultTable formatting is shared between all series types; You specify a callback function, which receives a TableContentBuilder. The contents of the table are then set using methods of the table builder:

     // Using TableContentBuilder.
    SpiderSeries.setCursorResultTableFormatter((tableBuilder, series, value, axis) => {
    // addRow adds a list of strings to a new row in the table. Empty strings ('') will allocate any extra horizontal space within the row.
    tableBuilder
    .addRow('Item 0:', '', 'Value 0')
    .addRow('Item 1:', '', 'Value 1')
    .addRow('Long row that highlights the idea of empty strings')

    // After configuration, the table builder must be returned!
    return tableBuilder
    })

    The additional values that are supplied to the callback function vary between different chart types, refer to the series documentation of setCursorResultTableFormatter to learn the exact available information. All Spider Series receive three extra parameters:

    1. series | reference to the series itself.
    2. value | pointed data point value.
    3. axis | pointed data point category (name of spider axis).

    Parameters

    Returns SpiderSeries

  • Set theme effect enabled on component or disabled.

    A theme can specify an Effect to add extra visual oomph to chart applications, like Glow effects around data or other components. Whether this effect is drawn above a particular component can be configured using the setEffect method.

     // Example, disable theme effect from a particular component.
    Component.setEffect(false)

    For the most part, theme effects are enabled by default on most components.

    Theme effect is configured with effect property.

    Returns

    Object itself.

    Parameters

    • enabled: boolean

      Theme effect enabled

    Returns SpiderSeries

  • Set fill style of the Polygon that represents the shape of the Series.

    Example use:

    // Create a new style
    SpiderSeries.setFillStyle(new SolidFill({ color: ColorHEX('#F00') }))
    // Change transparency
    SpiderSeries.setFillStyle((solidFill) => solidFill.setA(80))
    // Set hidden
    SpiderSeries.setFillStyle(emptyFill)

    Returns

    Series itself for fluent interface.

    Parameters

    Returns SpiderSeries

  • Set state of component highlighting.

     // Example usage

    component.setHighlight(true)

    component.setHighlight(0.5)

    If highlight animations are enabled (which is true by default), the transition will be animated. As long as the component is highlighted, the active highlight intensity will be animated continuously between 0 and the configured value. Highlight animations can be disabled with setAnimationHighlight

    Returns

    Object itself

    Parameters

    • highlight: number | boolean

      Boolean or number between 0 and 1, where 1 is fully highlighted.

    Returns SpiderSeries

  • Set highlight on mouse hover enabled or disabled.

    Mouse interactions have to be enabled on the component for this to function as expected. See setMouseInteractions for more information.

    Returns

    Object itself for fluent interface.

    Parameters

    • state: boolean

      True if highlighting on mouse hover, false if no highlight on mouse hover

    Returns SpiderSeries

  • Set component mouse interactions enabled or disabled.

    Disabling mouse interactions means that the objects below this component can be interacted through it.

    Possible side-effects from disabling mouse interactions:

    • Mouse events are not triggered. For example, onMouseMove.
    • Mouse driven highlighting will not work.

    Returns

    Object itself for fluent interface

    Parameters

    • state: boolean

      Specifies state of mouse interactions

    Returns SpiderSeries

    Example usage:

    // Specified LineStyle
    SpiderSeries.setStrokeStyle(new SolidLine({ thickness: 2, fillStyle: new SolidFill({ color: ColorHEX('#F00') }) }))
    // Changed thickness
    SpiderSeries.setStrokeStyle((solidLine) => solidLine.setThickness(5))

    This refers to default interaction when attached LegendBoxEntry is toggled, or alternatively when setVisible() method is used.

     // Example, disable animation when visibility changes
    SpiderSeries.setVisibleStateChangedAnimation(undefined)
     // Example, specify animation easing and duration
    SpiderSeries.setVisibleStateChangedAnimation(AnimationEasings.linear, 2000)

    Returns

    Object itself
