Extends: anychart.core.Base

Custom drawing series settings.
RenderingSettings class is a set of methods for overriding series drawing method.
The class allows overriding standard drawing functions.
To get a rendering object, use the rendering() method of the series which drawing you want to override.

Methods Overview

Specific settings
finish()Finish settings.
needsWidth()Points width settings
needsZero()Zero settings
point()Point settings.
shapes()Shapes settings.
start()Start settings.
updatePoint()Point update settings
yValues()YScale values settings.

Methods Description

finish

Getter for the finish.

Returns:

function - The finish function.
See listing
var rendering = series.rendering();
var finishFunction = rendering.finish();
Setter for the finish.

Params:

NameTypeDescription
finishFunctionfunctionFunction that looks like
function(anychart.core.series.RenderingSettings.Context){
this.anychart.core.series.RenderingSettings.Context
// The context contains fields:
// series - Chart series (anychart.core.stock.series.Base|anychart.core.cartesian.series.Base|anychart.core.stock.scrollerSeries.Base).
// seriesState - State of entire series (anychart.enums.PointState|string).
return finishValue;
}

Returns:

anychart.core.series.RenderingSettings - Self instance for method chaining.

needsWidth

Getter for points width.

Returns:

boolean - Points width.

point

Getter for the point.

Returns:

function - The point function.
See listing
var rendering = series.rendering();
var pointFunction = rendering.point();
Setter for the point.

Params:

NameTypeDescription
pointFunctionfunctionFunction that looks like
function(anychart.core.series.RenderingSettings.PointContext){

// size - The size value if series is Bubble.
// x - The pixel X coordinate of the point center.
// pointState - Point state (anychart.enums.PointState|string).
// missing - Whether the point is missing.
// categoryWidth - The category width if XScale is ordinal. Otherwise 1.
// pointWidth - The point width, if needsWidth() value is true. Otherwise undefined.
// zero - Zero value by YScale, if needsZero() value is true.
return pointValue;
}

Returns:

anychart.core.series.RenderingSettings - Self instance for method chaining.
