Found a couple of posts that came close to solving this. I'm loading a chart into a widget and it's not filling it, instead it's centered and extended past the widget - about only 1/3 of the pie chart shows for example.
I found the resize options for gridster and it gets me almost there... the same problem exists when I load the page, but when I resize the widget the chart fills it in perfectly.
I've tried aligning the chart, removing width and height settings, addeing resize and stop elements to gridsters..
var gridster = null;
$(document).ready(function () {
gridster = $(".gridster ul").gridster({
widget_base_dimensions: ['auto', 140],
autogenerate_stylesheet: true,
min_cols: 1,
max_cols: 6,
widget_margins: [5, 5],
resize: {
enabled: true,
resize: function (e, ui, $widget) {
Highcharts.charts[0].reflow(); // reflow the first chart...
},
stop: function(e, ui, $widget) {
Highcharts.charts[0].reflow(); // reflow the first chart...
}
}
}).data('gridster');
$('.gridster ul').css({'padding': '0'});
});
Highcharts.chart('container', {
chart: {
type: 'pie'
},
title: {
text: 'User data',
style: {"fontSize": "15px" , "color":"red"},
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Source: Click the slices to view categories.'
},
plotOptions: {
pie: {
showInLegend: false,
dataLabels: {
formatter: function(){
console.log(this);
if (this.percentage > 5)
return this.key + ': ' + this.y;
else
this.point.visible = false;
return '';
}
}
},
series: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
}
}
},
tooltip: {
headerFormat: '<span style="font-size:11px">{series.name}</span><br>',
pointFormat: '{series.name}: <b>{point.percentage:.1f}%</b>'
},
when page loads the pie chart is sized to fit into the gridster widget.
Add one div wrapper around widget and add class which having height and width of that widget. It will render your highchart graph in that wrapper only.
