About

Use it for a short list of distinct things (browsers, plans, teams) where each keeps its color across the page, such as a pie of the same data nearby. For one series over time, a single color reads calmer.

Five bars run to the right with 5px corners, Chrome down to Other, each in one of the five chart colors and named beside it. There's no value axis or grid; the tooltip gives the visitor count.

</script>
<ChartBarMixed />

Customize

  • The rows are { browser, fill, visitors }. barX puts visitors on a linear x scale with axis: false and browser on a band y scale.
  • Each row's fill points at its browser's chartConfig color, read by fill: (datum) => datum.fill: chrome is var(--chart-1), safari var(--chart-2), through other at var(--chart-5).
  • chartConfig.visitors only has a label, for the value's name; the five browser entries hold the colors.
  • The y axis tick format turns each browser key into its display name, and radius: 5 rounds the bars.

FAQ

How does each bar get its own color?

Each browser has an entry in chartConfig with a --chart-N color, each row a fill that points at it (var(--color-chrome)), and the mark paints with fill: (datum) => datum.fill. Change a browser's color to recolor its bar.

What if I have more than five categories?

The theme has five chart colors, --chart-1 to --chart-5. Add tokens of your own, or give the extra entries any CSS color. Past seven or eight, one color with sorted bars reads better.

Can a pie chart use the same colors?

Yes. The pie charts use the same browsers with the same chartConfig colors. Share one config object between both charts and each browser keeps its color.

Where do the browser names come from?

From the y axis: its tick format looks each browser key up in chartConfig and prints its label. Change the labels to rename them.

Do I need a legend?

Not here: each bar has its name beside it, so a legend would repeat the axis. Add one when the axis is hidden or a color shows up in more than one place.

tooltip?(ChartTooltipContentOptions & { class?: string }) | false

ChartTooltipContent's options (indicator, hideLabel, labelFormatter…) for the default body, or false for TanStack's own tooltip body.

Type
(ChartTooltipContentOptions & { class?: string }) | false
renderTooltip?Snippet<[ChartTooltipBodySnippetContext]>

A whole tooltip body of your own, in place of ChartTooltipContent: it gets the focused points (each with its datum, group and color). A snippet.

initialWidth?number

The width the chart renders at before it's measured.

onFocusChange?(point: ChartPoint | null) => void

Called as the focused point changes: a pointer, a key or a tap.

ChartTooltipContent
