问题
I am currently working with NVD3 using Angular Directive (angular-nvd3). I have a very simple line chart with very simple data.
The problem I have encountered now is that my data is wrongly aligned with the Axis. Example plunker available here: http://plnkr.co/edit/jWEYt6?p=preview ,
I am using dates on my xAxis, which are parsed using d3 library:
tickFormat: function(d) {return d3.time.format('%d/%m')(new Date(d))}
Description:
I would expect the xAxis labels to be correspondent to the grid.
In the example you can clearly notice that the xAxis is not evenly devided (values: 06/11, 08/11, 11/11, 13/11). So usually 2 days and sometimes 3 days :)
What is worse - the peaks are not matching the grid. Example: 06/11 tick is really not even close to the grid's line where I guess it is supposed to be.
I have also tried this on master's
code from repo and it happens there too. There is a link in the HTML head section.
Is there a problem with my data, proper date formatting or something else? Thanks!

This bugged me for a while and I could not find an answer here. I even have opened a bug on GitHub: https://github.com/novus/nvd3/issues/1382#issuecomment-160694559 and I was clued in on the answer.
The problem:
The actual issue is hidden because of d3.time.format('%d/%m')
. My example data is given in one tick per day manner, and the format was set accordingly. But d3
does not understand that. When drawing the grid it divides the max-min/someValue
and the grid ticks does not have to occur on full day (midnight), but on any hour. And because of the formatting I could not see that.
The version showing this misconception is here: http://plnkr.co/edit/2iMHOp?p=preview
Solution:
So now, when I know what I could do, I managed to substitute the ticks by using tickValues
parameter in nvd3 / angular wrapper.
The version with the solution is here:

Yet another bug :)
Funny thing is that since the labels are too long to be displayed, I had to rotate them so they could fit. Another bug occurs here (I think). As you can see 2nd and last but one tick label is missing. First I tried using the solution mentioned here: NVD3 Line Chart X Axis Ticks Are Missing using the showMaxMin
parameter but it does not work correctly. But if you rotate the labels to ~ -70
degrees the labels are displayed OK.
I guess this is not the end with my NVD3 journey ;)

Since the problem is, according to Atais:
The actual issue is hidden because of d3.time.format('%d/%m'). My example data is given in one tick per day manner, and the format was set accordingly. But d3 does not understand that. When drawing the grid it divides the max-min/someValue and the grid ticks does not have to occur on full day (midnight), but on any hour. And because of the formatting I could not see that.
I managed to pass the x's values as integer values (ex: 20160211) instead of formatted dates (ex: 2016-02-11 or similars) to nvd3, and then on tickFormat
format them to display properly.
I wrote another plunker with the problem and the commented solution (used momentjs):
Plunker with the simulated error: http://plnkr.co/edit/fXDQ0f?p=preview
Data is provided in format x: milliseconds, y: int
, like {x: 1446418800000, y: 20},
and it is being formated with tickFormat
:
xAxis: {
tickFormat: function(d) {
return moment(d).format('YYYY-MM-DD');
}
}
Plunker with the solution: http://plnkr.co/edit/KpALzo?p=preview
Data is provided in format x: int, y: int
, like {x: 20160211, y: 20},
and it is being formated with tickFormat
:
xAxis: {
tickFormat: function(d) {
moment(d, 'YYYYMMDD').format('YYYY-MM-DD');
}
}
Note that you can do it with time too, just by appending to the 'numeric date'.
As stated from @ajaybc, will not work well with dates from different months, since d3 will interpolate X axis with invalid filling dates (days 32, 33, 34 and so on)
