Home Components Mixed-Type Charts

Mixed-Type Charts

You can combine multiple chart types inside a single <Chart> tag to create mixed-type charts.

Examples

Mixed-Type Chart

This example uses multiple y columns and multiple series types (bar and line)

Mixed-Type Chart

Because x is the first column in the dataset, an explicit x prop is not required.

This structure also gives you control over the individual series on your chart. For example, if you have a single series running through a component, you can override props specifically for that series. Since the FDA acronym was not fully capitalized above, you can rename that specific series inside the <Line> primitive:

Mixed-Type Chart Name Overide

Chart <Chart>

<Chart data={query_name}>
    Insert primitives here
</Chart>
