combined line and bar w/ jqplot

Question

Is it possible w/ jqplot to display a line chart that \'overlays\' a bar chart?

I have added a series to a stacked barchart and changed the renderer to $.jqplot.Line

Answer 1

 series:[
              {
                    color:'#0070c0',
                    label : 'Barchart',
                    renderer:$.jqplot.BarRenderer,
                    rendererOptions: {
                          barPadding: 0,
                          barMargin: 0
                    },
                    pointLabels: { show: true }
              },
       {
                    yaxis: 'y2axis',
                    color: '#ff0000',
                    label : 'Line chart ',
                    renderer:$.jqplot.LineRenderer,
                    rendererOptions: {
                          barPadding: 0,
                          barMargin: 0
                    }
              }
        ]

It will draw both line and bar chart

Answer 2

I add this example on jsFiddle, i hope this could be useful to you. It also shows the possibility to draw delimiting lines and areas for a better representation.

there is an article about this topic at this page: http://www.meccanismocomplesso.org/en/mean-mode-median-barchart/

.

Answer 3

Yes it can be done with jqPlot.

A sample showing how a bar chart can be presented on a single plot together with a line chart is presented here, see the 3rd plot from the top.

Here I made a sample to show line and stacked bar charts on a single plot.
