IChartingLibraryWidget

Interface

The main interface for interacting with the library, returned by ChartingLibraryWidgetConstructor. For more information, refer to the Widget methods article.

Methods

activeChart

Get an API object for interacting with the active chart. For example, you can subscribe to events on the active chart, such as IChartWidgetApi.onIntervalChanged. Note that the library does not manage the event subscriptions when users switch between the charts on the multiple-chart layout. If necessary, you should manually unsubscribe from the previous chart and subscribe to the newly selected one. To track the currently active chart, use the SubscribeEventsMap.activeChartChanged event.

activeChart() => IChartWidgetApi

Returns

An API object for interacting with the chart.

unloadUnusedCharts

This method deletes non-visible charts from a multiple-chart layout.

When a user transitions from a layout with a larger number of charts to one with fewer charts, the unused chart APIs still exist behind the scenes. This inherent behavior allows the library to restore previously displayed charts.

If you prefer that additional charts are displayed as new, with no record of previous charts at the same position, you can use this method to delete all non-visible charts. It is most effective to run this method right after a layout change (one can subscribe to SubscribeEventsMap.layout_changed to know when this occurs).

Please ensure that any subscriptions or event listeners associated with the hidden charts are removed prior to invoking this method.

unloadUnusedCharts() => void

void
