Size for Container

Chart can render to its container size. You can set the size via inline or CSS as demonstrated below.

 <div id="charts" style="width:650px; height:350px"></div>

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { ChartComponent, SeriesCollectionDirective, AxesDirective, AxisDirective, SeriesDirective, Inject,
ColumnSeries, Legend, Category, Tooltip, DataLabel, Zoom, Crosshair, LineSeries, Selection}
from'@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';

class App extends React.Component<{},{}> {

  render(){
        return <ChartComponent id='charts'>
        </ChartComponent>
  }

};
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("charts"));

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { ChartComponent } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';
class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return <ChartComponent id='charts'>
        </ChartComponent>;
    }
}
;
ReactDOM.render(<App />, document.getElementById("charts"));

In Percentage

By setting value in percentage, chart gets its dimension with respect to its container. For example, when the height is ‘50%’, chart renders to half of the container height.
