I am adding chartjs in my application & want to change particular point background color based on condition at runtime. I am able to plot the chart correctly but don't know how to change plot color.
From chartjs document I understand we can do it using pointBackgroundColor but all example online is with design time example.
I tried with this._chart.chart.data.datasets[0].pointBackgroundColor = "red";
but its changed to all points and not to particular points
My version :
Angular ver 6
chartjs ver 2.7.3
ng2-charts 1.6.0
Component.ts code
@ViewChild(BaseChartDirective) public _chart: BaseChartDirective;
constructor(private router: Router, private _realtimeData : RealtimeDataService) {
this._realtimeData.getRealtimeData(1)).subscribe(data =>
{
for (let stat of data)
{
this.labels.push(newDate(stat.DateTime).toLocaleDateString('de-IN', this.options));
this.datasets_lines[0].data.push(stat.value);
this.datasets_lines[1].data.push(stat.value1);
this.datasets_lines[2].data.push(stat.vlue2);
if ((stat.value > stat.value1) || (stat.value< stat.vlue2))
{
this._chart.chart.data.datasets[0].pointBorderColor = "red";
}
else
{
this._chart.chart.data.datasets[0].pointBorderColor = "black";
}
this._chart.chart.update();
}
}
}
public chartColors: Array<any> = [
{ // first color
borderColor: "#36ff2f",
pointBackgroundColor: 'rgba(225,10,24,0.2)',
pointBorderColor: '#fff',
},
{ // first color
borderColor: '#1780cc',
pointBackgroundColor: 'rgba(225,10,24,0.2)',
pointBorderColor: '#fff',
},
{ // second color
borderColor: '#ed8b00',
pointBackgroundColor: 'rgba(225,10,24,0.2)',
pointBorderColor: '#fff',
}];
