Highcharts stacked bar chart - how to get the stacks values












0















I have created an highcharts stacked bar chart, but when the data is skewed, the bars are not visible or the numbers overlap, as shown in below image.



enter image description here



I have seen many posts, but there is no out of the box solution for this, so i am making my custom solution.



I am setting a default height of 150 if the y value is less than 150.



enter image description here



This solution works, but the total of the bars now is shown to be 300 instead of the actual original value. How can i change the total stacklabel value on my own? I am unable to find a way to do that.



Here is the code to change the height to default values. I am storing the actual value in realValue variable in the point object.



chartOptions = {
type: CHARTING.CHART_OPTIONS.TYPE.COLUMN,
// On chart load, apply custom logic
events : {
load: function () {
var chart = this,
minColHeightVal = 150;

chart.series.forEach(function (s) {
s.points.forEach(function (p) {

if (p.y < minColHeightVal) {
p.update({
y: minColHeightVal,
realValue: p.y
}, false);
}
});
});

// How to iterate over the bars here and sum the actual value? i.e. point.realValue and set the stacklabel?


chart.redraw();
}
}
}

Did you try to use minPointLength option? It may be a simpler solution in your case: https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/series.column.minPointLength



However, using your code to get the wanted result, use stackLabels.formatter function:



        formatter: function() {
var series = this.axis.series,
x = this.x,
sum = 0;

series.forEach(function(s) {
if (s.points && s.points[x]) {
sum += s.points[x].realValue ? s.points[x].realValue : s.points[x].y
}
});

return sum;
}
