Datasets in Chart.js stacked barchart appear overlaid instead of stacked - chart.js

I'm trying to create a stacked barchart using 2 datasets with Chart.js but I find they overlay instead of stack. Is this because of the known bug with a time series for the x-axis or have I done something wrong?

jsfiddle
Hopefully the above jsfiddle explains the issue pictorially. The barchart shows daily data for two datasets which are supposed to be stacked, but dataset1 overlays dataset2 and therefore obscures dataset2 unless transparency is set for dataset1, and then the colour is not correct because it's a combination of one colour over another.

Simply define your yAxes as stacked also as shown below.
yAxes: [{
stacked: true,
Also try to use the latest stable version of Chart.js (currently v2.9.3)
Please have a look at your amended code.

How to align labels at same side chartjs React

Hello i am rendering these charts using chart js but i am unable to align these charts in the same order my config file and options file is given below
can anyone please help me with this. i tried with below options and data
const options = {
indexAxis: "y",
maintainAspectRatio: false,
aspectRatio: 0.8,
barThickness: 20,
responsive: true,
layout: {
padding: {
left: 1
}
},
plugins: {
legend: {
display: false
}
},
scales: {
x: {
ticks: {
color: "#495057"
},
grid: {
color: "#ebedef"
}
},
y: {
ticks: {
color: "#495057",
crossAlign: "near"
},
grid: {
color: "#ebedef"
},
gridLines: {
offsetGridLines: true,
display: true
}
}
}
};
const data = {
labels: ["red"],
datasets: [{
backgroundColor: "#42A5F5",
data: [65],
borderWidth: 2,

borderSkipped: false
},
{
backgroundColor: "#FFA726",
data: [28],
borderWidth: 2,
borderRadius: 50,
borderSkipped: false
}
]
};
how to align one below the other labels
As far as I know chart.js does not provide an option to set a minimum distance for the labels, a workaround to achieve this is to add spaces the the labels of the charts where the labels are shorter as the longest one so you will get something like this:
var options = {
type: 'bar',
data: {
labels: [" Red"],
datasets: [{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12],
backgroundColor: 'pink'
}]
},
options: {
indexAxis: 'y'
}
}
var ctx = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx, options);
<body>
<canvas id="chartJSContainer" width="600" height="400"></canvas>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/Chart.js/3.5.0/chart.js"></script>
</body>
var options = {
type: 'bar',
data: {
labels: [" Red"],
datasets: [{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12],
backgroundColor: 'pink'
}]
},
options: {
indexAxis: 'y'
}
}
var options2 = {
type: 'bar',
data: {
labels: [" Yellowwwww"],
datasets: [{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12],
backgroundColor: 'pink'
}]
},
options: {
indexAxis: 'y'
}
}
var ctx = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer').getContext('2d');
var ctx2 = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer2').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx2, options2);
new Chart(ctx, options);

It works, you only forgot to include the script tag to the plugin so the annotations plugin never got loaded in

charts js have a bar spanning negative/positive on y-axis

Is there a way in chartjs to have a bar span across the zero line? As an example,
lets say I have a bar with
data:[x:1, y:100]
How do I tell it to span the y-axis from -100 to 100 (instead of from 0 to 100)?
I have sort of a playground here where I can do either negative or positive per bar, but not both for one bar.
https://jsbin.com/dufonoceja/1/edit?js,output
This can be done since Chart.js v2.9.0, which now supports floating bars. Individual bars can now be specified with the syntax [min, max].

How to make ticks evenly spaced with Chart.js

I have a horizontalBar chart with one column. I want to have ticks got from 0 to 70, evenly spaced and 10 point increments. I've tried several options, but can't seem to make it work out. Best I could do was this:
Here is the code I used to generate this chart:
<div style="width: 330px; height: 100px;">
<canvas id="chartBarChart1" style="margin-right: auto; margin-left: auto; display: block;" height="100"></canvas>
</div>
<script>
var ctx = document.getElementById('chartBarChart1').getContext('2d');
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'horizontalBar',
data: {
labels: ['CI'],
datasets: [
{
label: 'CI',
data: [45],
backgroundColor: 'Red'
}
]
},
options: {
scales: {
xAxes: [{
ticks: {
max: 70,
beginAtZero: true
}
}]
}, legend: { display: false },
responsive: false,
maintainAspectRatio: false
});
</script>
Is there a way?
Use "stepSize" to configure the ticks like this:
var ctx = document.getElementById('chartBarChart1').getContext('2d');
var myChart = new Chart(ctx, {
type: 'horizontalBar',
data: {
labels: ['CI'],
datasets: [{
label: 'CI',
data: [45],
backgroundColor: 'Red'
}]
},
options: {
scales: {
xAxes: [{
ticks: {
max: 70,
beginAtZero: true,
stepSize: 10
}
}]
},
},
});

in the x-axis labels, I am trying to get a small icon (image) to be displayed instead of a number. I have tried to put just the image tag in all possible combinations of " and ' as well as with the number. But to no avail. The chart does not render. It seems that the label needs to recognized as a value to render and the html tag knocks this out of place. I don't see why an image tag cannot be put in there, is there a way to do this?
