The appearance of the sparkline can be customized using margin, containerArea border, and containerArea 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.

import { Sparkline } from '@syncfusion/ej2-charts';

let sparkline: Sparkline = new Sparkline({
    // To render border around the sparkline
    containerArea: {
        border: { color: '#033e96', width: 2 }
    },
    border: { color: '#033e96', width: 1 },
    height: '200px',
    width: '350px',
    type: 'Area',
    fill: '#b2cfff',
    dataSource: [3, 6, 4, 1, 3, 2, 5]
});
sparkline.appendTo("#element");

        border: { color: '#033e96', width: 2 }
    },
    // To render sparkline with padding
    padding: { left: 20, right: 20, bottom: 20, top: 20},
    border: { color: '#033e96', width: 1 },
    height: '200px',

let sparkline: Sparkline = new Sparkline({
    // To specify theme
    theme: 'HighContrast',
    dataLabelSettings: { visible: ['All']},
    tooltipSettings: {
        trackLineSettings: { visible: true }
    },
    axisSettings: {
        minX: -1, maxX: 7
    },
    lineWidth: 3,
