FusionCharts - Build beautiful web & mobile dashboards

FusionCharts jsDelivr Hits FusionCharts Downloads FusionCharts NPM Version

FusionCharts is a JavaScript charting library providing 100+ charts and 2,000+ maps for your web and mobile applications. All the visualizations are interactive and animated, which are rendered in SVG and VML (for IE 6/7/8).

This package also contains FusionTime (timeseries charts), FusionWidgets (gauges, real-time charts), PowerCharts (statistical and advanced charts), and FusionMaps (choropleth geo maps).

What's New

New Features

  • FusionCharts version 4.1.0 introduces scrollbar for Waterfall Charts x-axis. Which improves user experience with the layout and scope for additional amount of Data.

Improvements

  • FusionCharts version 4.1.0 upgrades the version for underline dependencies of the 'react-native-fusioncharts' package and makes it compatible with 0.70.x, 0.71.x, 0.72.x, 0.73.x and 0.74 versions.
  • Removed the Expo dependency from the react-native-fusioncharts package, now utilizing native packages, resulting in a reduced overall bundle size.
  • FusionCharts version 4.1.0 added new dynamic attributes to control the look and feel of the legend scrollbars.
    • The useLegendScrollGradient attribute determines whether to enable or disable gradient colors. If the set value is 1, you need to provide gradient colors for legendScrollTrackColor and legendScrollAnchorColor in the form of an object with angle, startColor, and endColor. If the value is set to 0, you should provide legendScrollTrackColor and legendScrollAnchorColor in hexadecimal format instead of an object.
  • Upgraded third-party integrations support:
    • Updated ember dependency with the latest version.
    • Addressed dependabot pull requests, to improve security.

Fixes

  • FusionCharts 4.1.0 added Content Security Policy (CSP) compatibility for the require-trusted-types-for 'script' and style-src directive.
  • Resolved an accessibility issue where the tab would focus on the overall chart area instead of the chart plot when the chart did not have a first x-axis value.
  • Fixed an issue where Multie-Pie charts were not resizing correctly without applying a re-render.
  • Addressed an issue where the watermark from the map was not removed on the application of a valid license key for chart type: maps/france2016.
  • Resolved an issue in the legend-item.js file where the legendData object properties were not passed to the getAnchorProps function causing it to apply the same properties to every legend item, regardless of the data.
  • Fixed the issue of specific series not getting highlighted in the Crossline tooltip when 'applycsstransform' attribute was set to 1.
  • Fixed the issue where on hovering over the data plot, the tooltip showed incorrect values when the cursor moved out of the plot area for the scrollbar2d chart when drawCrossLine is enabled for Scrollbar2d chart and Scroll Stacked bar charts.

        FusionCharts.ready(function () {
            // chart instance
            var chart = new FusionCharts({
                type: "column2d",
                renderAt: "chart-container", // container where chart will render
                width: "600",
                height: "400",
                dataFormat: "json",
                dataSource: {
                    // chart configuration
                    chart: {
                        caption: "Countries With Most Oil Reserves [2017-18]",
                        subcaption: "In MMbbl = One Million barrels"
                    },
                    // chart data
                    data: [
