Methods

<script>
    rscatter.canvas.onclick = function (e)
    {
        RGraph.redraw();
    
        var canvas  = e.target,
            obj     = canvas.__object__,
            shape   = obj.getShape(e);

        if (shape) {

            var x = shape.x,
                y = shape.y;

            // Path a circle that indicates the point
            obj.path(
                'b a % % 5 0 6.29 false s red f red',
                x, y
            );
        }
    }
</script>

This method can be used to get an appropriate radius of a point based on the scale. This is useful when working out how far away from the center a point should be. In a set of coordinates, the first value is the rotational value in degrees - it can be 0-360.

This method can be used to set an event listener on an object. It operates similarly to the jquery on function. The first argument is the event that you wish to attach to and the second is the handler function. For example:

obj.on('draw', function (obj)
{
    // Put your event code here
});

The function is useful if you use method chaining when creating your charts:

var obj = new RGraph.RScatter({
    id: 'cvs',
    data: [[45,36],[48,68],[66,56],[95,35],[120,45],[155,65]],
    options: {
    }
}).on('draw', function (obj)
{
    // Put your draw event code here

}).on('click', function (e, shape)
{
    // Put your click event code here
}).draw();

The exec function is documented here.

The responsive function helps your charts respond to different browser window sizes and screen resolutions. For example, for smaller screens, you might want to have angled labels or show shorter versions of them completely.

Update: There is now the responsive configuration option available to you and this is now the preferred method of configuration.

The responsive function and configuration option are documented on their own page here.

Events

RGraph supports custom events that allow you to easily add interactivity to your charts if required. The following events are available:

• annotatebegin This event fires at the start of annotating - like the standard mousedown event.
• annotate This event fires (repeatedly) during annotating - like the standard mousemove event.
• annotateend This event fires at the end of annotating - like the standard mouseup event.
• annotateclear This event fires at the end of the RGraph.clearAnnotations function.
• beforeclear This event fires at the start of the RGraph.clear function.
• clear This event fires at the end of the RGraph.clear function.
• click This is similar to the standard canvas click event but this only fires when you click on a bar - not the whole canvas.
• beforecontextmenu This event fires when you have the contextmenu enabled and it is about to appear.
• contextmenu This event fires when you have the contextmenu enabled and it has been displayed.
• beforedraw This event fires at the start of the draw method before anything has been done.
• firstdraw This event fires at the end of the draw function - but only the first time that the draw function is called.
• draw This event fires at the end of the draw function.
• beforeinteractivekey When you're using the interactive key this event fires just before the key and chart are highlighted.
• afterinteractivekey When you're using the interactive key this event fires just after the key and chart are highlighted.
• keyclick This event fires when you click on the key - you don't have to be using the interactive key however.
• mousemove This event is similar to the standard mousemove event but only fires when you move the mouse over a bar on the chart.
• mouseover This event is similar to the standard mouseover event but only fires when you move the mouse over a bar on the chart.
• mouseout This event is similar to the standard mouseout event but only fires when you move the mouse away from a bar on the chart that you've previously hovered over.
• beforetooltip This event fires at the start of the tooltip showing process.
• tooltip This event fires after a tooltip has been shown.
