128This example demonstrates how to create a stacked column chart side-by-side using SciChart.js within a React framework. The chart visualizes data for produce items by grouping individual series (for tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers) into separate side-by-side column or bar charts, providing a clear visual comparison of data over a series of years.
The chart is constructed using the SciChart.js API by first configuring the X and Y axes with numeric parameters and then creating individual StackedColumnRenderableSeries for each data series. Each series is assigned a unique stacking group identifier (using the property stackedGroupId) to ensure they appear side-by-side rather than being stacked on top of each other. The setup includes the use of interactive modifiers such as ZoomExtentsModifier, ZoomPanModifier, and MouseWheelZoomModifier to enhance usability, and a smooth appearance is achieved through the implementation of WaveAnimation. The React integration is streamlined by using the <SciChartReact/> component with the initChart property, as explained in the Tutorial 02 - Creating a Chart with scichart-react.
This example showcases advanced chart grouping by organizing multiple data series into distinct stacking groups for a side-by-side presentation. Key features include dynamic chart animations, interactive data exploration through pan and zoom controls, and a customizable legend to clearly indicate each data series. The grouping logic and chart configuration align with the principles detailed in the JavaScript Stacked Column Chart Documentation.
Integrating SciChart.js with React is efficiently handled by the <SciChartReact/> component, which accepts an initialization function via the initChart prop to render the chart within a React component. This method supports the best practices outlined in React Charts with SciChart.js: Introducing “SciChart React”. In addition, applying interactivity modifiers such as ZoomPanModifier is essential for responsive chart behavior, as documented in the ZoomPanModifier documentation.
