Overview
The React step line chart is similar to a standard line chart, but it connects data points using a combination of vertical and horizontal lines to represent step-like progression. It includes interactive features such as zooming, panning, animation, and real-time updates.
Multiple data series
Multiple data series can be plotted within a single chart, allowing users to compare different datasets. Enabling features like legends and tooltips provides additional insights into each series.
Data markers
Data points can be marked using built-in shapes: circles, rectangles, ellipses, vertical and horizontal lines, diamonds, triangles, pentagons, crosses, and plus signs. Custom images can also be used to enhance visual appeal.
Data labels
Data labels offer contextual information for each data point and can be rotated to a specified angle for better readability.
Dual axes
Multiple axes can be used to plot datasets with significantly different value ranges, enabling clearer comparisons.
Zoom and pan
Zooming and panning features allow users to explore specific regions of large datasets for detailed analysis.
Real-time visualization
The dynamic step line chart supports live data updates. Use it to visualize rapidly changing trends like stock prices or temperature fluctuations.
Missing data handling
React line charts gracefully handle missing data by supporting empty points, ensuring continuity in visualization.
Vertical charts
The chart can be rotated vertically to offer a different perspective on the data.
Styling options
Customize line colors, thicknesses, and dash patterns using built-in APIs to match your design and data presentation needs.
React step line chart code example
Quickly get started with the React step line chart using a few lines of TSX code, as shown below. You can also explore this React step line chart example to learn how to render and customize the chart in a React application.
import { Chart, ChartPrimaryXAxis, ChartSeriesCollection, ChartSeries } from '@syncfusion/react-charts';
export default function App() {
const data = [
{ x: new Date(1975, 0, 1), y: 16 },
{ x: new Date(1980, 0, 1), y: 12.5 },
{ x: new Date(1985, 0, 1), y: 19 },
{ x: new Date(1990, 0, 1), y: 14.4 },
{ x: new Date(1995, 0, 1), y: 11.5 },
{ x: new Date(2000, 0, 1), y: 14 },
{ x: new Date(2005, 0, 1), y: 10 },
{ x: new Date(2010, 0, 1), y: 16 }
];
return (
<Chart>
<ChartPrimaryXAxis valueType='DateTime'>
</ChartPrimaryXAxis>
<ChartSeriesCollection>
<ChartSeries dataSource={data} xField="x" yField="y" type="StepLine" />
</ChartSeriesCollection>
</Chart>
)
