Globalization

Globalization is the process of designing and developing an component that works in different cultures/locales. Internationalization library is used to globalize number, date, time values in Chart component using labelFormat property in axis.

Numeric Format

In the below example axis, point and tooltip labels are globalized to EUR.

import * as React from "react";
import * as ReactDOM from "react-dom";
import { ChartComponent, SeriesCollectionDirective, SeriesDirective, Inject, ColumnSeries, Legend, Tooltip, DataLabel } from '@syncfusion/ej2-react-charts';
import { setCurrencyCode } from '@syncfusion/ej2-base';
import { data } from './datasource';
setCurrencyCode('EUR');
function App() {
    const primaryxAxis = { edgeLabelPlacement: 'Shift', title: 'Years' };
    const primaryyAxis = { labelFormat: 'c', title: 'Sales Amount in Millions' };
    const marker = { dataLabel: { visible: true } };
    const tooltip = { enable: true, format: '${point.x} : ${point.y}' };
    return <ChartComponent id='charts' primaryXAxis={primaryxAxis} primaryYAxis={primaryyAxis} title='Average Sales Comparison' tooltip={tooltip}>
      <Inject services={[ColumnSeries, Legend, Tooltip, DataLabel]}/>
      <SeriesCollectionDirective>
        <SeriesDirective dataSource={data} xName='x' yName='y' name='Product X' type='Column' marker={marker}>
        </SeriesDirective>
        <SeriesDirective dataSource={data} xName='x' yName='y1' name='Product Y' type='Column' marker={marker}>
        </SeriesDirective>
      </SeriesCollectionDirective>
    </ChartComponent>;

  const tooltip: TooltipSettingsModel = { enable: true, format: '${point.x} : ${point.y}' };

  return <ChartComponent id='charts'

      primaryYAxis={primaryyAxis}
      title='Average Sales Comparison'
