The appearance of the sparkline can be customized using margin, container Area border, and container Area background.

Sparkline border

The containerArea border of the sparkline is used to render border to cover sparkline area.

The following code example shows the sparkline with overall border.

CSHTML

@using Syncfusion.EJ2;
<div class="spark" align="center">
@Html.EJS().Sparkline("sparkline").Loaded("loaded").Height("200px").Width("350px").ContainerArea(con => con.Border(new SparklineSparklineBorder { Color = "#033e96", Width = 2 })).Border(bod => bod.Color("#033e96").Width(1)).Type(SparklineType.Area).Fill("#b2cfff").DataSource(ViewBag.sparkData).Render()
</div>
<style>
    .spark {
        border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);
        border-radius: 2px;
        width: 100%;
        height: 100%;
    }
</style>
<script>
    function loaded(args)
    { 
        window.sparkline = args.sparkline;
        args.sparkline.loaded = null;
        args.sparkline.refresh();
    }
</script>

            return View();
        }
    }
}

Sparkline padding

Padding is used to specify padding value between container and sparkline. By default, padding value of the sparkline is 5. Sparkline padding values are specified by the left, right, top, and bottom.

The following code example shows the sparkline with overall padding is set to 20.

CSHTML

@using Syncfusion.EJ2;
<div class="spark" align="center">
@Html.EJS().Sparkline("sparkline").Loaded("loaded").Height("200px").Width("350px").ContainerArea(con => con.Border(new SparklineSparklineBorder { Color = "#033e96", Width = 2 })).Padding(pad => pad.Left(20).Right(20).Bottom(20).Top(20)).Border(bod => bod.Color("#033e96").Width(1)).Type(SparklineType.Area).Fill("#b2cfff").DataSource(ViewBag.sparkData).Render()
</div>
<style>
    .spark {
        border: 1px solid rgb(209, 209, 209);
        border-radius: 2px;
        width: 100%;
        height: 100%;
    }
</style>
<script>
    function loaded(args)
    { 
        window.sparkline = args.sparkline;
        args.sparkline.loaded = null;
        args.sparkline.refresh();
    }

            return View();
        }
    }
}

Sparkline area customization

The background color of the sparkline area can be customized using the containerArea background color. By default, the sparkline background color is transparent.

CSHTML

@using Syncfusion.EJ2;
<div class="spark" align="center">
@Html.EJS().Sparkline("sparkline").Loaded("loaded").Height("200px").Width("350px").ContainerArea(con => con.Background("#eff1f4").Border(new SparklineSparklineBorder { Color = "#033e96", Width = 2 })).Padding(pad => pad.Left(20).Right(20).Bottom(20).Top(20)).Border(bod => bod.Color("#033e96").Width(1)).Type(SparklineType.Area).Fill("#b2cfff").DataSource(ViewBag.sparkData).Render()

            return View();
        }
    }
}

Sparkline theme

Datalabel and track line colors of the sparkline will be changed based on theme. For example, for dark theme, the color of datalabel and track line should be white; for light theme, their value should be black. The possible values for sparkline theme are Material, Fabric, Bootstrap, and Highcontrast.

The following code example shows the color for datalabel and track line is set to white for dark theme.

@using Syncfusion.EJ2;
<div class="spark" align="center">
@Html.EJS().Sparkline("sparkline").Loaded("loaded").Height("200px").Width("350px").Theme(SparklineTheme.Highcontrast).DataLabelSettings(data => data.Visible(ViewBag.sparkVisible)).TooltipSettings(tool => tool.TrackLineSettings(new SparklineTrackLineSettings { Visible = true })).AxisSettings(axis => axis.MinX(-1).MaxX(7)).LineWidth(3).Border(bor => bor.Color("transparent").Width(2)).Type(SparklineType.Line).Fill("#007dd1").DataSource(ViewBag.sparkData).Render()
