Are the printed values accessible?

They're real SVG text, so they print and scale with the page, but their layer is hidden from screen readers so nothing is read twice. A screen reader hears the values through the tooltip, which announces each month as you move between them with the arrow keys.

Radar Chart with Custom Labels

Q: How are the two-line labels drawn?

Two radialText marks, in a decorative layer of their own, sit on the outer ring with anchor: "outside". One prints desktop/mobile in the foreground color; the other prints the month in the muted color. dy sets them on two lines, and radiusOffset pushes both past the edge.

Q: How do I change what the labels say?

Change the text accessor of the values mark. It receives the row and returns a string, so it can join other fields, format the numbers, or add a unit.

Q: Why is the radar smaller than the others?

Labels outside the radius need room. Each layer takes inset: 10 (Recharts' 10-pixel margin) before radiusRatio: 0.8, where the other radars take 5, and the top label is raised 10 pixels to clear the edge. Raise the offset or the ratio and the top label clips.

Q: Where did the default month labels go?

angleGrid still draws the spokes but with labels: false, so only the custom marks label the months. Turn its labels back on and you get the plain names twice.

A two-series radar whose spoke labels print both values above each month's name, so people read the numbers without hovering. Built in Vue.

About

Use it when the chart has to work without hovering: a printed report, a slide, a screenshot in a doc. Each spoke shows Desktop and Mobile as a pair above the month, so the exact numbers sit beside the shape. With more than two series, the labels get too long; use a table.

Two overlapping shapes, Desktop at 60% and Mobile solid, sit on a polygon grid. Each label reads like 186/80 in the foreground color with the month under it in a muted tone.

</script>

<template>
  <ChartRadarLabelCustom />
</template>

Customize

Two radialText marks in a decorative layer sit on the outer ring (radius: () => 1 on their own 0 to 1 scale) with anchor: "outside": one with a text accessor that joins desktop and mobile with a slash, one with text: "month".
dy stacks them (values above, month below) and radiusOffset: 8 moves them clear of the outer ring.
angleGrid({ labels: false }) keeps the spokes and leaves the labeling to the text marks.
inset: 10 keeps room for the labels inside the square, and the first label's dy raises it 10 pixels so it clears the top.
The labels paint with var(--foreground) and var(--muted-foreground), so they follow the theme.

#default?slot

What sits under the chart inside the container: a ChartLegend.

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

#tooltip?slot (ChartTooltipBodySlotContext)

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

Type: slot (ChartTooltipBodySlotContext)

defaultIndex?number

The category whose tooltip shows before any pointer, as Recharts' defaultIndex.

height?number

A fixed height in pixels for the chart, in place of the container's.

aspectRatio?number

A width-to-height ratio for the chart, in place of the container's height.

initialWidth?number

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

EventType

@focus-change?(point: ChartPoint | null) => void

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

Type: (point: ChartPoint | null) => void

@focus-group-change?(points: readonly ChartPoint[]) => void

Called with every point at the focused category (a stacked or grouped chart's).

Type: (points: readonly ChartPoint[]) => void

@select?(point: ChartPoint | null) => void

Called when a point is clicked or picked with Enter.

Type: (point: ChartPoint | null) => void

CSS variableType

--color-<key>?color

Each config key's color (its theme color in light and dark), set on the container: the marks paint with var(--color-<key>).

ChartTooltipContent

<div>

PropType

pointsreadonly ChartPoint[]

The focused points, from the tooltip's context. ChartContainer passes them to its default body; a body of your own passes its context's.

The indicator's shape beside each row.

Type: "dot" | "line" | "dashed"
Default: "dot"

hideLabel?boolean

color?string

One indicator color for every row, in place of each series' own.

labelFormatter?(label: string, points: readonly ChartPoint[]) => string
