Smith chart marker in EJ2 JavaScript Smithchart control

26 Apr 202321 minutes to read

Markers and Datalabels are used to provide information about the data points in the series. You can add a shape to adorn each data point. By default marker and datalabel both are disabled in smithchart. You can enable both of them by setting visible property as true in marker and datalabel settings

Marker

Default visibility of marker is false. You can enable the marker by setting property visible as true in marker settings. This will add marker for each point in the series. Using marker setting, you can customize marker differently for each series in smithchart.

var smithchart = new ej.charts.Smithchart({
    series: [
        {
            points: [
                { resistance: 10, reactance: 25 }, { resistance: 8, reactance: 6 },
                { resistance: 6, reactance: 4.5 }, { resistance: 4.5, reactance: 2 },
                { resistance: 3.5, reactance: 1.6 }, { resistance: 2.5, reactance: 1.3 },
                { resistance: 2, reactance: 1.2 }, { resistance: 1.5, reactance: 1 },
                { resistance: 1, reactance: 0.8 }, { resistance: 0.5, reactance: 0.4 },
                { resistance: 0.3, reactance: 0.2 }, { resistance: 0, reactance: 0.15 },
            ],
            name: 'Transmission1',
            marker: {
                visible: true
            }
        }
    ],
});
smithchart.appendTo('#container');

    series: [
        {
            points: [
                { resistance: 10, reactance: 25 }, { resistance: 8, reactance: 6 },
