Overview

A line chart that is rendered within the browser usingSVG orVML. Displays tooltips when hovering over points.

Examples

Curving the Lines

You can smooth the lines by setting the curveType option to function:

The code to generate this chart is below. Note the use of the curveType: function option:

Loading

The google.charts.load package name is "corechart", and the visualization's class name is google.visualization.LineChart.

google.charts.load("current", {packages: ["corechart"]});

var visualization = new google.visualization.LineChart(container);

For Material Line Charts, the google.charts.load package name is"line", and the visualization's class name is google.charts.Line.

google.charts.load("current", {packages: ["line"]});

var visualization = new google.charts.Line(container);

Configuration Options

Name
aggregationTarget How multiple data selections are rolled up into tooltips: 'category': Group selected data by x-value. 'series': Group selected data by series. 'auto': Group selected data by x-value if all selections have the same x-value, and by series otherwise. 'none': Show only one tooltip per selection. aggregationTarget will often be used in tandem with selectionMode and tooltip.trigger, e.g.: var options = { // Allow multiple // simultaneous selections. selectionMode: 'multiple', // Trigger tooltips // on selections. tooltip: {trigger: 'selection'}, // Group selections // by x-value. aggregationTarget: 'category', }; Type: string Default: 'auto'
animation.duration The duration of the animation, in milliseconds. For details, see theanimation documentation. Type: number Default: 0
animation.startup Determines if the chart will animate on the initial draw. If true, the chart will start at the baseline and animate to its final state. Type: boolean Default false
animation.easing The easing function applied to the animation. The following options are available: 'linear' - Constant speed. 'in' - Ease in - Start slow and speed up. 'out' - Ease out - Start fast and slow down. 'inAndOut' - Ease in and out - Start slow, speed up, then slow down. Type: string Default: 'linear'
annotations.boxStyle For charts that supportannotations, the annotations.boxStyle object controls the appearance of the boxes surrounding annotations: var options = { annotations: { boxStyle: { // Color of the box outline. stroke: '#888', // Thickness of the box outline. strokeWidth: 1, // x-radius of the corner curvature. rx: 10, // y-radius of the corner curvature. ry: 10, // Attributes for linear gradient fill. gradient: { // Start color for gradient. color1: '#fbf6a7', // Finish color for gradient. color2: '#33b679', // Where on the boundary to start and // end the color1/color2 gradient, // relative to the upper left corner // of the boundary. x1: '0%', y1: '0%', x2: '100%', y2: '100%', // If true, the boundary for x1, // y1, x2, and y2 is the box. If // false, it's the entire chart. useObjectBoundingBoxUnits: true } } } }; This option is currently supported for area, bar, column, combo, line, and scatter charts. It is not supported by theAnnotation Chart. Type: object Default: null
annotations.datum For charts that supportannotations, the annotations.datum object lets you override Google Charts' choice for annotations provided for individual data elements (such as values displayed with each bar on a bar chart). You can control the color with annotations.datum.stem.color, the stem length with annotations.datum.stem.length, and the style with annotations.datum.style. Type: object Default: color is "black"; length is 12; style is "point".
annotations.domain For charts that supportannotations, the annotations.domain object lets you override Google Charts' choice for annotations provided for a domain (the major axis of the chart, such as the X axis on a typical line chart). You can control the color with annotations.domain.stem.color, the stem length with annotations.domain.stem.length, and the style with annotations.domain.style. Type: object Default: color is "black"; length is 5; style is "point".
annotations.highContrast For charts that supportannotations, the annotations.highContrast boolean lets you override Google Charts' choice of the annotation color. By default, annotations.highContrast is true, which causes Charts to select an annotation color with good contrast: light colors on dark backgrounds, and dark on light. If you set annotations.highContrast to false and don't specify your own annotation color, Google Charts will use the default series color for the annotation: Type: boolean Default: true
annotations.stem For charts that supportannotations, the annotations.stem object lets you override Google Charts' choice for the stem style. You can control color with annotations.stem.color and the stem length with annotations.stem.length. Note that the stem length option has no effect on annotations with style 'line': for 'line' datum annotations, the stem length is always the same as the text, and for 'line' domain annotations, the stem extends across the entire chart. Type: object Default: color is "black"; length is 5 for domain annotations and 12 for datum annotations.
annotations.style For charts that supportannotations, the annotations.style option lets you override Google Charts' choice of the annotation type. It can be either 'line' or 'point'. Type: string Default: 'point'
annotations.textStyle For charts that supportannotations, the annotations.textStyle object controls the appearance of the text of the annotation: var options = { annotations: { textStyle: { fontName: 'Times-Roman', fontSize: 18, bold: true, italic: true, // The color of the text. color: '#871b47', // The color of the text outline. auraColor: '#d799ae', // The transparency of the text. opacity: 0.8 } } }; This option is currently supported for area, bar, column, combo, line, and scatter charts. It is not supported by the Annotation Chart. Type: object Default: null
axisTitlesPosition Where to place the axis titles, compared to the chart area. Supported values: in - Draw the axis titles inside the chart area. out - Draw the axis titles outside the chart area. none - Omit the axis titles. Type: string Default: 'out'
backgroundColor The background color for the main area of the chart. Can be either a simple HTML color string, for example: 'red' or '#00cc00', or an object with the following properties. Type: string or object Default: 'white'
backgroundColor.stroke The color of the chart border, as an HTML color string. Type: string Default: '#666'
backgroundColor.strokeWidth The border width, in pixels. Type: number Default: 0
backgroundColor.fill The chart fill color, as an HTML color string. Type: string Default: 'white'
chartArea An object with members to configure the placement and size of the chart area (where the chart itself is drawn, excluding axis and legends). Two formats are supported: a number, or a number followed by %. A simple number is a value in pixels; a number followed by % is a percentage. Example: chartArea:{left:20,top:0,width:'50%',height:'75%'} Type: object Default: null
chartArea.backgroundColor Chart area background color. When a string is used, it can be either a hex string (e.g., '#fdc') or an English color name. When an object is used, the following properties can be provided: stroke: the color, provided as a hex string or English color name. strokeWidth: if provided, draws a border around the chart area of the given width (and with the color of stroke). Type: string or object Default: 'white'
chartArea.left How far to draw the chart from the left border. Type: number or string Default: auto
chartArea.top How far to draw the chart from the top border. Type: number or string Default: auto
chartArea.width Chart area width. Type: number or string Default: auto
chartArea.height Chart area height. Type: number or string Default: auto
colors The colors to use for the chart elements. An array of strings, where each element is an HTML color string, for example: colors:['red','#004411']. Type: Array of strings Default: default colors
crosshair An object containing the crosshair properties for the chart. Type: object Default: null
crosshair.color The crosshair color, expressed as either a color name (e.g., "blue") or an RGB value (e.g., "#adf"). Type: string Type: default
crosshair.focused An object containing the crosshair properties upon focus.Example:crosshair: { focused: { color: '#3bc', opacity: 0.8 } } Type: object Default: default
crosshair.opacity The crosshair opacity, with 0.0 being fully transparent and 1.0 fully opaque. Type: number Default: 1.0
crosshair.orientation The crosshair orientation, which can be 'vertical' for vertical hairs only, 'horizontal' for horizontal hairs only, or 'both' for traditional crosshairs. Type: string Default: 'both'
crosshair.selected An object containing the crosshair properties upon selection.Example:crosshair: { selected: { color: '#3bc', opacity: 0.8 } } Type: object Default: default
crosshair.trigger When to display crosshairs: on 'focus', 'selection', or'both'. Type: string Default: 'both'
curveType Controls the curve of the lines when the line width is not zero. Can be one of the following: 'none' - Straight lines without curve. 'function' - The angles of the line will be smoothed. **Type:**string Default: 'none'
dataOpacity The transparency of data points, with 1.0 being completely opaque and 0.0 fully transparent. In scatter, histogram, bar, and column charts, this refers to the visible data: dots in the scatter chart and rectangles in the others. In charts where selecting data creates a dot, such as the line and area charts, this refers to the circles that appear upon hover or selection. The combo chart exhibits both behaviors, and this option has no effect on other charts. (To change the opacity of a trendline, see trendline opacity.) Type: number Default: 1.0
enableInteractivity Whether the chart throws user-based events or reacts to user interaction. If false, the chart will not throw 'select' or other interaction-based events (but will throw ready or error events), and will not display hovertext or otherwise change depending on user input. Type: boolean Default: true
explorer The explorer option allows users to pan and zoom Google charts.explorer: {} provides the default explorer behavior, enabling users to pan horizontally and vertically by dragging, and to zoom in and out by scrolling. This feature is experimental and may change in future releases. Note: The explorer only works with continuous axes (such as numbers or dates). Type: object Default: null
explorer.actions The Google Charts explorer supports three actions: dragToPan: Drag to pan around the chart horizontally and vertically. To pan only along the horizontal axis, use explorer: { axis: 'horizontal' }. Similarly for the vertical axis. dragToZoom: The explorer's default behavior is to zoom in and out when the user scrolls. If explorer: { actions: ['dragToZoom', 'rightClickToReset'] } is used, dragging across a rectangular area zooms into that area. We recommend usingrightClickToReset whenever dragToZoom is used. Seeexplorer.maxZoomIn, explorer.maxZoomOut, andexplorer.zoomDelta for zoom customizations. rightClickToReset: Right clicking on the chart returns it to the original pan and zoom level. Type: Array of strings Default: ['dragToPan', 'rightClickToReset']
explorer.axis By default, users can pan both horizontally and vertically when the explorer option is used. If you want to users to only pan horizontally, useexplorer: { axis: 'horizontal' }. Similarly,explorer: { axis: 'vertical' } enables vertical-only panning. Type: string Default: both horizontal and vertical panning
explorer.keepInBounds By default, users can pan all around, regardless of where the data is. To ensure that users don't pan beyond the original chart, use explorer: { keepInBounds: true }. Type: boolean Default: false
explorer.maxZoomIn The maximum that the explorer can zoom in. By default, users will be able to zoom in enough that they'll see only 25% of the original view. Settingexplorer: { maxZoomIn: .5 } would let users zoom in only far enough to see half of the original view. Type: number Default: 0.25
explorer.maxZoomOut The maximum that the explorer can zoom out. By default, users will be able to zoom out far enough that the chart will take up only 1/4 of the available space. Settingexplorer: { maxZoomOut: 8 } would let users zoom out far enough that the chart would take up only 1/8 of the available space. Type: number Default: 4
explorer.zoomDelta When users zoom in or out, explorer.zoomDelta determines how much they zoom by. The smaller the number, the smoother and slower the zoom. Type: number Default: 1.5
focusTarget The type of the entity that receives focus on mouse hover. Also affects which entity is selected by mouse click, and which data table element is associated with events. Can be one of the following: 'datum' - Focus on a single data point. Correlates to a cell in the data table. 'category' - Focus on a grouping of all data points along the major axis. Correlates to a row in the data table. In focusTarget 'category' the tooltip displays all the category values. This may be useful for comparing values of different series. Type: string Default: 'datum'
fontSize The default font size, in pixels, of all text in the chart. You can override this using properties for specific chart elements. Type: number Default: automatic
fontName The default font face for all text in the chart. You can override this using properties for specific chart elements. Type: string Default: 'Arial'
forceIFrame Draws the chart inside an inline frame. (Note that on IE8, this option is ignored; all IE8 charts are drawn in i-frames.) Type: boolean Default: false
hAxis An object with members to configure various horizontal axis elements. To specify properties of this object, you can use object literal notation, as shown here: { title: 'Hello', titleTextStyle: { color: '#FF0000' } } Type: object Default: null
hAxis.baseline The baseline for the horizontal axis. This option is only supported for a continuous axis. Type: number Default: automatic
hAxis.baselineColor The color of the baseline for the horizontal axis. Can be any HTML color string, for example:'red' or '#00cc00'. This option is only supported for a continuous axis. Type: number Default: 'black'
hAxis.direction The direction in which the values along the horizontal axis grow. Specify -1 to reverse the order of the values. Type: 1 or -1 Default: 1
hAxis.format A format string for numeric or date axis labels. For number axis labels, this is a subset of the decimal formatting ICU pattern set. For instance, {format:'#,###%'} will display values "1,000%", "750%", and "50%" for values 10, 7.5, and 0.5. You can also supply any of the following: {format: 'none'}: displays numbers with no formatting (e.g., 8000000) {format: 'decimal'}: displays numbers with thousands separators (e.g., 8,000,000) {format: 'scientific'}: displays numbers in scientific notation (e.g., 8e6) {format: 'currency'}: displays numbers in the local currency (e.g., $8,000,000.00) {format: 'percent'}: displays numbers as percentages (e.g., 800,000,000%) {format: 'short'}: displays abbreviated numbers (e.g., 8M) {format: 'long'}: displays numbers as full words (e.g., 8 million) For date axis labels, this is a subset of the date formatting ICU pattern set. For instance, {format:'MMM d, y'} will display the value "Jul 1, 2011" for the date of July first in 2011. The actual formatting applied to the label is derived from the locale the API has been loaded with. For more details, see loading charts with a specific locale. In computing tick values and gridlines, several alternative combinations of all the relevant gridline options will be considered and alternatives will be rejected if the formatted tick labels would be duplicated or overlap. So you can specify format:"#" if you want to only show integer tick values, but be aware that if no alternative satisfies this condition, no gridlines or ticks will be shown. This option is only supported for acontinuous axis. Type: string Default: auto
hAxis.gridlines An object with properties to configure the gridlines on the horizontal axis. Note that horizontal axis gridlines are drawn vertically. To specify properties of this object, you can use object literal notation, as shown here: {color: '#333', minSpacing: 20} This option is only supported for acontinuous axis. Type: object Default: null
hAxis.gridlines.color The color of the horizontal gridlines inside the chart area. Specify a valid HTML color string. Type: string Default: '#CCC'
hAxis.gridlines.count The approximate number of horizontal gridlines inside the chart area. If you specify a positive number for gridlines.count, it will be used to compute the minSpacing between gridlines. You can specify a value of 1 to only draw one gridline, or 0 to draw no gridlines. Specify -1, which is the default, to automatically compute the number of gridlines based on other options. Type: number Default: -1
hAxis.gridlines.interval An array of sizes (as data values, not pixels) between adjacent gridlines. This option is only for numeric axes at this time, but it is analogous to thegridlines.units..interval options which are used only for dates and times. For linear scales, the default is[1, 2, 2.5, 5] which means the gridline values can fall on every unit (1), on even units (2), or on multiples of 2.5 or 5. Any power of 10 times these values is also considered (e.g. [10, 20, 25, 50] and [.1, .2, .25, .5]). For log scales, the default is[1, 2, 5]. Type: number between 1 and 10, not including 10. Default: computed
hAxis.gridlines.minSpacing The minimum screen space, in pixels, between hAxis major gridlines. The default for major gridlines is 40 for linear scales, and 20 for log scales. If you specify the count and not the minSpacing, the minSpacing is computed from the count. And conversely, if you specify the minSpacing and not the count, the count is computed from the minSpacing. If you specify both, the minSpacing overrides. Type: number Default: computed
hAxis.gridlines.multiple All gridline and tick values must be a multiple of this option's value. Note that, unlike for intervals, powers of 10 times the multiple are not considered. So you can force ticks to be integers by specifyinggridlines.multiple = 1, or force ticks to be multiples of 1000 by specifyinggridlines.multiple = 1000. Type: number Default: 1
hAxis.gridlines.units Overrides the default format for various aspects of date/datetime/timeofday data types when used with chart computed gridlines. Allows formatting for years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds. General format is: gridlines: { units: { years: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, months: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, days: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} hours: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} minutes: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} seconds: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, milliseconds: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, } } Additional information can be found inDates and Times. Type: object Default: null
hAxis.minorGridlines An object with members to configure the minor gridlines on the horizontal axis, similar to the hAxis.gridlines option. This option is only supported for acontinuous axis. Type: object Default: null
hAxis.minorGridlines.color The color of the horizontal minor gridlines inside the chart area. Specify a valid HTML color string. Type: string Default: A blend of the gridline and background colors
hAxis.minorGridlines.count The minorGridlines.count option is mostly deprecated, except for disabling minor gridlines by setting the count to 0. The number of minor gridlines now depends entirely on the interval between major gridlines (see hAxis.gridlines.interval) and the minimum required space (see hAxis.minorGridlines.minSpacing). Type: number **Default:**1
hAxis.minorGridlines.interval The minorGridlines.interval option is like the major gridlines interval option, but the interval that is chosen will always be an even divisor of the major gridline interval. The default interval for linear scales is[1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 5], and for log scales is[1, 2, 5]. Type: number **Default:**1
hAxis.minorGridlines.minSpacing The minimum required space, in pixels, between adjacent minor gridlines, and between minor and major gridlines. The default value is 1/2 the minSpacing of major gridlines for linear scales, and 1/5 the minSpacing for log scales. Type: number **Default:**computed
hAxis.minorGridlines.multiple Same as for major gridlines.multiple. Type: number Default: 1
hAxis.minorGridlines.units Overrides the default format for various aspects of date/datetime/timeofday data types when used with chart computed minorGridlines. Allows formatting for years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds. General format is: gridlines: { units: { years: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, months: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, days: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} hours: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} minutes: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} seconds: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, milliseconds: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, } } Additional information can be found inDates and Times. Type: object Default: null
hAxis.logScale hAxis property that makes the horizontal axis a logarithmic scale (requires all values to be positive). Set to true for yes. This option is only supported for a continuous axis. Type: boolean Default: false
hAxis.scaleType hAxis property that makes the horizontal axis a logarithmic scale. Can be one of the following: null - No logarithmic scaling is performed. 'log' - Logarithmic scaling. Negative and zero values are not plotted. This option is the same as setting hAxis: { logscale: true }. 'mirrorLog' - Logarithmic scaling in which negative and zero values are plotted. The plotted value of a negative number is the negative of the log of the absolute value. Values close to 0 are plotted on a linear scale. This option is only supported for a continuous axis. Type: string Default: null
hAxis.textPosition Position of the horizontal axis text, relative to the chart area. Supported values: 'out', 'in', 'none'. Type: string Default: 'out'
hAxis.textStyle An object that specifies the horizontal axis text style. The object has this format: { color: , fontName: , fontSize: , bold: , italic: } The color can be any HTML color string, for example: 'red' or'#00cc00'. Also see fontName and fontSize. Type: object Default: {color: 'black', fontName: , fontSize: }
hAxis.ticks Replaces the automatically generated X-axis ticks with the specified array. Each element of the array should be either a valid tick value (such as a number, date, datetime, or timeofday), or an object. If it's an object, it should have a v property for the tick value, and an optional f property containing the literal string to be displayed as the label. The viewWindow will be automatically expanded to include the min and max ticks unless you specify aviewWindow.min or viewWindow.max to override. Examples: hAxis: { ticks: [5,10,15,20] } hAxis: { ticks: [{v:32, f:'thirty two'}, {v:64, f:'sixty four'}] } hAxis: { ticks: [new Date(2014,3,15), new Date(2013,5,15)] } hAxis: { ticks: [16, {v:32, f:'thirty two'}, {v:64, f:'sixty four'}, 128] } This option is only supported for acontinuous axis. Type: Array of elements Default: auto
hAxis.title hAxis property that specifies the title of the horizontal axis. Type: string Default: null
hAxis.titleTextStyle An object that specifies the horizontal axis title text style. The object has this format: { color: , fontName: , fontSize: , bold: , italic: } The color can be any HTML color string, for example: 'red' or'#00cc00'. Also see fontName and fontSize. Type: object Default: {color: 'black', fontName: , fontSize: }
hAxis.allowContainerBoundaryTextCutoff If false, will hide outermost labels rather than allow them to be cropped by the chart container. If true, will allow label cropping. This option is only supported for a discrete axis. Type: boolean Default: false
hAxis.slantedText If true, draw the horizontal axis text at an angle, to help fit more text along the axis; if false, draw horizontal axis text upright. Default behavior is to slant text if it cannot all fit when drawn upright. Notice that this option is available only when thehAxis.textPosition is set to 'out' (which is the default). The default is false for dates and times. Type: boolean Default: automatic
hAxis.slantedTextAngle The angle of the horizontal axis text, if it's drawn slanted. Ignored ifhAxis.slantedText is false, or is in auto mode, and the chart decided to draw the text horizontally. If the angle is positive, the rotation is counter-clockwise, and if negative, it is clockwise. Type: number, -90—90 Default: 30
hAxis.maxAlternation Maximum number of levels of horizontal axis text. If axis text labels become too crowded, the server might shift neighboring labels up or down in order to fit labels closer together. This value specifies the most number of levels to use; the server can use fewer levels, if labels can fit without overlapping. For dates and times, the default is 1. Type: number Default: 2
hAxis.maxTextLines Maximum number of lines allowed for the text labels. Labels can span multiple lines if they are too long, and the number of lines is, by default, limited by the height of the available space. Type: number Default: auto
hAxis.minTextSpacing Minimum horizontal spacing, in pixels, allowed between two adjacent text labels. If the labels are spaced too densely, or they are too long, the spacing can drop below this threshold, and in this case one of the label-unclutter measures will be applied (e.g, truncating the labels or dropping some of them). Type: number Default: The value of hAxis.textStyle.fontSize
hAxis.showTextEvery How many horizontal axis labels to show, where 1 means show every label, 2 means show every other label, and so on. Default is to try to show as many labels as possible without overlapping. Type: number Default: automatic
hAxis.maxValue Moves the max value of the horizontal axis to the specified value; this will be rightward in most charts. Ignored if this is set to a value smaller than the maximum x-value of the data.hAxis.viewWindow.max overrides this property. This option is only supported for acontinuous axis. Type: number Default: automatic
hAxis.minValue Moves the min value of the horizontal axis to the specified value; this will be leftward in most charts. Ignored if this is set to a value greater than the minimum x-value of the data.hAxis.viewWindow.min overrides this property. This option is only supported for acontinuous axis. Type: number Default: automatic
hAxis.viewWindowMode Specifies how to scale the horizontal axis to render the values within the chart area. The following string values are supported: 'pretty' - Scale the horizontal values so that the maximum and minimum data values are rendered a bit inside the left and right of the chart area. The viewWindow is expanded to the nearest major gridline for numbers, or the nearest minor gridline for dates and times. 'maximized' - Scale the horizontal values so that the maximum and minimum data values touch the left and right of the chart area. This will cause haxis.viewWindow.min andhaxis.viewWindow.max to be ignored. 'explicit' - A deprecated option for specifying the left and right scale values of the chart area. (Deprecated because it's redundant with haxis.viewWindow.min andhaxis.viewWindow.max.) Data values outside these values will be cropped. You must specify an hAxis.viewWindow object describing the maximum and minimum values to show. This option is only supported for acontinuous axis. Type: string Default: Equivalent to 'pretty', but haxis.viewWindow.min andhaxis.viewWindow.max take precedence if used.
hAxis.viewWindow Specifies the cropping range of the horizontal axis. Type: object Default: null
hAxis.viewWindow.max For a continuous axis: The maximum horizontal data value to render. For adiscrete axis: The zero-based row index where the cropping window ends. Data points at this index and higher will be cropped out. In conjunction with vAxis.viewWindowMode.min, it defines a half-opened range [min, max) that denotes the element indices to display. In other words, every index such that min <= index < max will be displayed. Ignored when hAxis.viewWindowMode is 'pretty' or 'maximized'. Type: number Default: auto
hAxis.viewWindow.min For acontinuous axis: The minimum horizontal data value to render. For adiscrete axis: The zero-based row index where the cropping window begins. Data points at indices lower than this will be cropped out. In conjunction with vAxis.viewWindowMode.max, it defines a half-opened range [min, max) that denotes the element indices to display. In other words, every index such that min <= index < max will be displayed. Ignored when hAxis.viewWindowMode is 'pretty' or 'maximized'. Type: number Default: auto
height Height of the chart, in pixels. Type: number Default: height of the containing element
interpolateNulls Whether to guess the value of missing points. If true, it will guess the value of any missing data based on neighboring points. If false, it will leave a break in the line at the unknown point. This is not supported byArea charts with theisStacked: true/'percent'/'relative'/'absolute' option. Type: boolean Default: false
legend An object with members to configure various aspects of the legend. To specify properties of this object, you can use object literal notation, as shown here: {position: 'top', textStyle: {color: 'blue', fontSize: 16}} Type: object Default: null
legend.alignment Alignment of the legend. Can be one of the following: 'start' - Aligned to the start of the area allocated for the legend. 'center' - Centered in the area allocated for the legend. 'end' - Aligned to the end of the area allocated for the legend. Start, center, and end are relative to the style -- vertical or horizontal -- of the legend. For example, in a 'right' legend, 'start' and 'end' are at the top and bottom, respectively; for a 'top' legend, 'start' and 'end' would be at the left and right of the area, respectively. The default value depends on the legend's position. For 'bottom' legends, the default is 'center'; other legends default to 'start'. Type: string Default: automatic
legend.maxLines Maximum number of lines in the legend. Set this to a number greater than one to add lines to your legend. Note: The exact logic used to determine the actual number of lines rendered is still in flux. This option currently works only when legend.position is 'top'. Type: number Default: 1
legend.pageIndex Initial selected zero-based page index of the legend. Type: number Default: 0
legend.position Position of the legend. Can be one of the following: 'bottom' - Below the chart. 'left' - To the left of the chart, provided the left axis has no series associated with it. So if you want the legend on the left, use the option targetAxisIndex: 1. 'in' - Inside the chart, by the top left corner. 'none' - No legend is displayed. 'right' - To the right of the chart. Incompatible with the vAxes option. 'top' - Above the chart. Type: string Default: 'right'
legend.textStyle An object that specifies the legend text style. The object has this format: { color: , fontName: , fontSize: , bold: , italic: } The color can be any HTML color string, for example: 'red' or'#00cc00'. Also see fontName and fontSize. Type: object Default: {color: 'black', fontName: , fontSize: }
lineDashStyle The on-and-off pattern for dashed lines. For instance, [4, 4] will repeat 4-length dashes followed by 4-length gaps, and [5, 1, 3] will repeat a 5-length dash, a 1-length gap, a 3-length dash, a 5-length gap, a 1-length dash, and a 3-length gap. SeeDashed Lines for more information. Type: Array of numbers Default: null
lineWidth Data line width in pixels. Use zero to hide all lines and show only the points. You can override values for individual series using the series property. Type: number Default: 2
orientation The orientation of the chart. When set to 'vertical', rotates the axes of the chart so that (for instance) a column chart becomes a bar chart, and an area chart grows rightward instead of up: Type: string Default: 'horizontal'
pointShape The shape of individual data elements: 'circle', 'triangle', 'square', 'diamond', 'star', or 'polygon'. See the points documentation for examples. Type: string Default: 'circle'
pointSize Diameter of displayed points in pixels. Use zero to hide all points. You can override values for individual series using the series property. If you're using atrendline, thepointSize option will affect the width of the trendline unless you override it with the trendlines.n.pointsize option. Type: number Default: 0
pointsVisible Determines whether points will be displayed. Set to false to hide all points. You can override values for individual series using the series property. If you're using a trendline, thepointsVisible option will affect the visibility of the points on all trendlines unless you override it with the trendlines.n.pointsVisible option. This can also be overridden using thestyle role in the form of"point {visible: true}". Type: boolean Default: true
reverseCategories If set to true, will draw series from right to left. The default is to draw left-to-right. This option is only supported for adiscrete major axis. Type: boolean Default: false
selectionMode When selectionMode is 'multiple', users may select multiple data points. Type: string Default: 'single'
series An array of objects, each describing the format of the corresponding series in the chart. To use default values for a series, specify an empty object {}. If a series or a value is not specified, the global value will be used. Each object supports the following properties: annotations - An object to be applied to annotations for this series. This can be used to control, for instance, the textStyle for the series: series: { 0: { annotations: { textStyle: {fontSize: 12, color: 'red' } } } } See the various annotations options for a more complete list of what can be customized. color - The color to use for this series. Specify a valid HTML color string. curveType - Overrides the global curveType value for this series. labelInLegend - The description of the series to appear in the chart legend. lineDashStyle - Overrides the global lineDashStyle value for this series. lineWidth - Overrides the global lineWidth value for this series. pointShape - Overrides the global pointShape value for this series. pointSize - Overrides the global pointSize value for this series. pointsVisible - Overrides the global pointsVisible value for this series. targetAxisIndex - Which axis to assign this series to, where 0 is the default axis, and 1 is the opposite axis. Default value is 0; set to 1 to define a chart where different series are rendered against different axes. At least one series much be allocated to the default axis. You can define a different scale for different axes. visibleInLegend - A boolean value, where true means that the series should have a legend entry, and false means that it should not. Default is true. You can specify either an array of objects, each of which applies to the series in the order given, or you can specify an object where each child has a numeric key indicating which series it applies to. For example, the following two declarations are identical, and declare the first series as black and absent from the legend, and the fourth as red and absent from the legend: series: [ {color: 'black', visibleInLegend: false}, {}, {}, {color: 'red', visibleInLegend: false} ] series: { 0:{color: 'black', visibleInLegend: false}, 3:{color: 'red', visibleInLegend: false} } Type: Array of objects, or object with nested objects Default: {}
theme A theme is a set of predefined option values that work together to achieve a specific chart behavior or visual effect. Currently only one theme is available: 'maximized' - Maximizes the area of the chart, and draws the legend and all of the labels inside the chart area. Sets the following options:chartArea: {width: '100%', height: '100%'}, legend: {position: 'in'}, titlePosition: 'in', axisTitlesPosition: 'in', hAxis: {textPosition: 'in'}, vAxis: {textPosition: 'in'} Type: string Default: null
title Text to display above the chart. Type: string Default: no title
titlePosition Where to place the chart title, compared to the chart area. Supported values: in - Draw the title inside the chart area. out - Draw the title outside the chart area. none - Omit the title. Type: string Default: 'out'
titleTextStyle An object that specifies the title text style. The object has this format: { color: , fontName: , fontSize: , bold: , italic: } The color can be any HTML color string, for example: 'red' or'#00cc00'. Also see fontName and fontSize. Type: object Default: {color: 'black', fontName: , fontSize: }
tooltip An object with members to configure various tooltip elements. To specify properties of this object, you can use object literal notation, as shown here: {textStyle: {color: '#FF0000'}, showColorCode: true} Type: object Default: null
tooltip.ignoreBounds If set to true, allows the drawing of tooltips to flow outside of the bounds of the chart on all sides. Note: This only applies to HTML tooltips. If this is enabled with SVG tooltips, any overflow outside of the chart bounds will be cropped. SeeCustomizing Tooltip Content for more details. Type: boolean Default: false
tooltip.isHtml If set to true, use HTML-rendered (rather than SVG-rendered) tooltips. SeeCustomizing Tooltip Content for more details. Note: customization of the HTML tooltip content via thetooltip column data role is not supported by theBubble Chart visualization. Type: boolean Default: false
tooltip.showColorCode If true, show colored squares next to the series information in the tooltip. The default is true when focusTarget is set to 'category', otherwise the default is false. Type: boolean Default: automatic
tooltip.textStyle An object that specifies the tooltip text style. The object has this format: { color: , fontName: , fontSize: , bold: , italic: } The color can be any HTML color string, for example: 'red' or'#00cc00'. Also see fontName and fontSize. Type: object Default: {color: 'black', fontName: , fontSize: }
tooltip.trigger The user interaction that causes the tooltip to be displayed: 'focus' - The tooltip will be displayed when the user hovers over the element. 'none' - The tooltip will not be displayed. 'selection' - The tooltip will be displayed when the user selects the element. Type: string Default: 'focus'
trendlines Displays trendlines on the charts that support them. By default, linear trendlines are used, but this can be customized with the trendlines.n.type option. Trendlines are specified on a per-series basis, so most of the time your options will look like this: var options = { trendlines: { 0: { type: 'linear', color: 'green', lineWidth: 3, opacity: 0.3, showR2: true, visibleInLegend: true } } } Type: object Default: null
trendlines.n.color The color of the trendline, expressed as either an English color name or a hex string. Type: string Default: default series color
trendlines.n.degree For trendlines of type: 'polynomial', the degree of the polynomial (2 for quadratic, 3 for cubic, and so on). (The default degree may change from 3 to 2 in an upcoming release of Google Charts.) Type: number Default: 3
trendlines.n.labelInLegend If set, the trendline will appear in the legend as this string. Type: string Default: null
trendlines.n.lineWidth The line width of the trendline, in pixels. Type: number Default: 2
trendlines.n.opacity The transparency of the trendline, from 0.0 (transparent) to 1.0 (opaque). Type: number Default: 1.0
trendlines.n.pointSize Trendlines are constucted by stamping a bunch of dots on the chart; this rarely-needed option lets you customize the size of the dots. The trendline's lineWidth option will usually be preferable. However, you'll need this option if you're using the globalpointSize option and want a different point size for your trendlines. Type: number Default: 1
trendlines.n.pointsVisible Trendlines are constucted by stamping a bunch of dots on the chart. The trendline'spointsVisible option determines whether the points for a particular trendline are visible. Type: boolean Default: true

trendlines.n.type Whether the trendlines is 'linear' (the default), 'exponential', or'polynomial'. Type: string Default: linear
trendlines.n.visibleInLegend Whether the trendline equation appears in the legend. (It will appear in the trendline tooltip.) Type: boolean Default: false
vAxes Specifies properties for individual vertical axes, if the chart has multiple vertical axes. Each child object is a vAxis object, and can contain all the properties supported by vAxis. These property values override any global settings for the same property. To specify a chart with multiple vertical axes, first define a new axis usingseries.targetAxisIndex, then configure the axis using vAxes. The following example assigns series 2 to the right axis and specifies a custom title and text style for it: { series: { 2: { targetAxisIndex:1 } }, vAxes: { 1: { title:'Losses', textStyle: {color: 'red'} } } } This property can be either an object or an array: the object is a collection of objects, each with a numeric label that specifies the axis that it defines--this is the format shown above; the array is an array of objects, one per axis. For example, the following array-style notation is identical to the vAxis object shown above: vAxes: [ {}, // Nothing specified for axis 0 { title:'Losses', textStyle: {color: 'red'} // Axis 1 } ] Type: Array of object, or object with child objects Default: null
vAxis An object with members to configure various vertical axis elements. To specify properties of this object, you can use object literal notation, as shown here: {title: 'Hello', titleTextStyle: {color: '#FF0000'}} Type: object Default: null
vAxis.baseline vAxis property that specifies the baseline for the vertical axis. If the baseline is larger than the highest grid line or smaller than the lowest grid line, it will be rounded to the closest gridline. Type: number Default: automatic
vAxis.baselineColor Specifies the color of the baseline for the vertical axis. Can be any HTML color string, for example: 'red' or '#00cc00'. Type: number Default: 'black'
vAxis.direction The direction in which the values along the vertical axis grow. By default, low values are on the bottom of the chart. Specify -1 to reverse the order of the values. Type: 1 or -1 Default: 1
vAxis.format A format string for numeric axis labels. This is a subset of the ICU pattern set. For instance, {format:'#,###%'} will display values "1,000%", "750%", and "50%" for values 10, 7.5, and 0.5. You can also supply any of the following: {format: 'none'}: displays numbers with no formatting (e.g., 8000000) {format: 'decimal'}: displays numbers with thousands separators (e.g., 8,000,000) {format: 'scientific'}: displays numbers in scientific notation (e.g., 8e6) {format: 'currency'}: displays numbers in the local currency (e.g., $8,000,000.00) {format: 'percent'}: displays numbers as percentages (e.g., 800,000,000%) {format: 'short'}: displays abbreviated numbers (e.g., 8M) {format: 'long'}: displays numbers as full words (e.g., 8 million) The actual formatting applied to the label is derived from the locale the API has been loaded with. For more details, see loading charts with a specific locale. In computing tick values and gridlines, several alternative combinations of all the relevant gridline options will be considered and alternatives will be rejected if the formatted tick labels would be duplicated or overlap. So you can specify format:"#" if you want to only show integer tick values, but be aware that if no alternative satisfies this condition, no gridlines or ticks will be shown. Type: string Default: auto
vAxis.gridlines An object with members to configure the gridlines on the vertical axis. Note that vertical axis gridlines are drawn horizontally. To specify properties of this object, you can use object literal notation, as shown here: {color: '#333', minSpacing: 20} Type: object Default: null
vAxis.gridlines.color The color of the vertical gridlines inside the chart area. Specify a valid HTML color string. Type: string Default: '#CCC'
vAxis.gridlines.count The approximate number of horizontal gridlines inside the chart area. If you specify a positive number for gridlines.count, it will be used to compute the minSpacing between gridlines. You can specify a value of 1 to only draw one gridline, or 0 to draw no gridlines. Specify -1, which is the default, to automatically compute the number of gridlines based on other options. Type: number Default: -1
vAxis.gridlines.interval An array of sizes (as data values, not pixels) between adjacent gridlines. This option is only for numeric axes at this time, but it is analogous to thegridlines.units..interval options which are used only for dates and times. For linear scales, the default is[1, 2, 2.5, 5] which means the gridline values can fall on every unit (1), on even units (2), or on multiples of 2.5 or 5. Any power of 10 times these values is also considered (e.g. [10, 20, 25, 50] and [.1, .2, .25, .5]). For log scales, the default is[1, 2, 5]. Type: number between 1 and 10, not including 10. Default: computed
vAxis.gridlines.minSpacing The minimum screen space, in pixels, between hAxis major gridlines. The default for major gridlines is 40 for linear scales, and 20 for log scales. If you specify the count and not the minSpacing, the minSpacing is computed from the count. And conversely, if you specify the minSpacing and not the count, the count is computed from the minSpacing. If you specify both, the minSpacing overrides. Type: number Default: computed
vAxis.gridlines.multiple All gridline and tick values must be a multiple of this option's value. Note that, unlike for intervals, powers of 10 times the multiple are not considered. So you can force ticks to be integers by specifyinggridlines.multiple = 1, or force ticks to be multiples of 1000 by specifyinggridlines.multiple = 1000. Type: number Default: 1
vAxis.gridlines.units Overrides the default format for various aspects of date/datetime/timeofday data types when used with chart computed gridlines. Allows formatting for years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds. General format is: gridlines: { units: { years: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, months: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, days: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, hours: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, minutes: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, seconds: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, milliseconds: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} } } Additional information can be found inDates and Times. Type: object Default: null
vAxis.minorGridlines An object with members to configure the minor gridlines on the vertical axis, similar to the vAxis.gridlines option. Type: object Default: null
vAxis.minorGridlines.color The color of the vertical minor gridlines inside the chart area. Specify a valid HTML color string. Type: string Default: A blend of the gridline and background colors
vAxis.minorGridlines.count The minorGridlines.count option is mostly deprecated, except for disabling minor gridlines by setting the count to 0. The number of minor gridlines depends on the interval between major gridlines (see vAxis.gridlines.interval) and the minimum required space (see vAxis.minorGridlines.minSpacing). Type: number Default: 1
vAxis.minorGridlines.interval The minorGridlines.interval option is like the major gridlines interval option, but the interval that is chosen will always be an even divisor of the major gridline interval. The default interval for linear scales is[1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 5], and for log scales is[1, 2, 5]. Type: number **Default:**1
vAxis.minorGridlines.minSpacing The minimum required space, in pixels, between adjacent minor gridlines, and between minor and major gridlines. The default value is 1/2 the minSpacing of major gridlines for linear scales, and 1/5 the minSpacing for log scales. Type: number **Default:**computed
vAxis.minorGridlines.multiple Same as for major gridlines.multiple. Type: number Default: 1
vAxis.minorGridlines.units Overrides the default format for various aspects of date/datetime/timeofday data types when used with chart computed minorGridlines. Allows formatting for years, months, days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds. General format is: gridlines: { units: { years: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, months: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, days: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} hours: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} minutes: {format: [/*format strings here*/]} seconds: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, milliseconds: {format: [/*format strings here*/]}, } } Additional information can be found inDates and Times. Type: object Default: null
vAxis.logScale If true, makes the vertical axis a logarithmic scale. Note: All values must be positive. Type: boolean Default: false
vAxis.scaleType vAxis property that makes the vertical axis a logarithmic scale. Can be one of the following: null - No logarithmic scaling is performed. 'log' - Logarithmic scaling. Negative and zero values are not plotted. This option is the same as setting vAxis: { logscale: true }. 'mirrorLog' - Logarithmic scaling in which negative and zero values are plotted. The plotted value of a negative number is the negative of the log of the absolute value. Values close to 0 are plotted on a linear scale. This option is only supported for a continuous axis. Type: string Default: null
vAxis.textPosition Position of the vertical axis text, relative to the chart area. Supported values: 'out', 'in', 'none'. Type: string Default: 'out'
vAxis.textStyle An object that specifies the vertical axis text style. The object has this format: { color: , fontName: , fontSize: , bold: , italic: } The color can be any HTML color string, for example: 'red' or'#00cc00'. Also see fontName and fontSize. Type: object Default: {color: 'black', fontName: , fontSize: }
vAxis.ticks Replaces the automatically generated Y-axis ticks with the specified array. Each element of the array should be either a valid tick value (such as a number, date, datetime, or timeofday), or an object. If it's an object, it should have a v property for the tick value, and an optional f property containing the literal string to be displayed as the label. The viewWindow will be automatically expanded to include the min and max ticks unless you specify aviewWindow.min or viewWindow.max to override. Examples: vAxis: { ticks: [5,10,15,20] } vAxis: { ticks: [{v:32, f:'thirty two'}, {v:64, f:'sixty four'}] } vAxis: { ticks: [new Date(2014,3,15), new Date(2013,5,15)] } vAxis: { ticks: [16, {v:32, f:'thirty two'}, {v:64, f:'sixty four'}, 128] } Type: Array of elements Default: auto
vAxis.title vAxis property that specifies a title for the vertical axis. Type: string Default: no title
vAxis.titleTextStyle An object that specifies the vertical axis title text style. The object has this format: { color: , fontName: , fontSize: , bold: , italic: } The color can be any HTML color string, for example: 'red' or'#00cc00'. Also see fontName and fontSize. Type: object Default: {color: 'black', fontName: , fontSize: }
vAxis.maxValue Moves the max value of the vertical axis to the specified value; this will be upward in most charts. Ignored if this is set to a value smaller than the maximum y-value of the data.vAxis.viewWindow.max overrides this property. Type: number Default: automatic
vAxis.minValue Moves the min value of the vertical axis to the specified value; this will be downward in most charts. Ignored if this is set to a value greater than the minimum y-value of the data.vAxis.viewWindow.min overrides this property. Type: number Default: null
vAxis.viewWindowMode Specifies how to scale the vertical axis to render the values within the chart area. The following string values are supported: 'pretty' - Scale the vertical values so that the maximum and minimum data values are rendered a bit inside the bottom and top of the chart area. The viewWindow is expanded to the nearest major gridline for numbers, or the nearest minor gridline for dates and times. 'maximized' - Scale the vertical values so that the maximum and minimum data values touch the top and bottom of the chart area. This will cause vaxis.viewWindow.min andvaxis.viewWindow.max to be ignored. 'explicit' - A deprecated option for specifying the top and bottom scale values of the chart area. (Deprecated because it's redundant with vaxis.viewWindow.min andvaxis.viewWindow.max. Data values outside these values will be cropped. You must specify a vAxis.viewWindow object describing the maximum and minimum values to show. Type: string Default: Equivalent to 'pretty', but vaxis.viewWindow.min andvaxis.viewWindow.max take precedence if used.
vAxis.viewWindow Specifies the cropping range of the vertical axis. Type: object Default: null
vAxis.viewWindow.max The maximum vertical data value to render. Ignored when vAxis.viewWindowMode is 'pretty' or 'maximized'. Type: number Default: auto
vAxis.viewWindow.min The minimum vertical data value to render. Ignored when vAxis.viewWindowMode is 'pretty' or 'maximized'. Type: number Default: auto
width Width of the chart, in pixels. Type: number Default: width of the containing element
