I am using Chart.js to draw a simple line chart. How can I make small grid lines on top of the xAxis labels?
The documentation for Line Chart is here: https://www.chartjs.org/docs/2.7.3/getting-started/?h=line, but I can't find anything about it.
I removed the XAxis and YAxis grid lines.
This is an example of the small grid lines wanted:
Thanks in advance.
CodePudding user response:
Instead of removing the gridlines you can set the drawOnChartArea
to false:
var options = {
type: 'line',
data: {
labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"],
datasets: [{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
borderColor: 'pink'
},
{
label: '# of Points',
data: [7, 11, 5, 8, 3, 7],
borderColor: 'orange'
}
]
},
options: {
scales: {
x: {
grid: {
drawOnChartArea: false
}
},
y: {
grid: {
drawOnChartArea: false
}
}
}
},
}
var ctx = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx, options);
