Quick Start

In this quick start, you'll learn how to add the ScatterChart widget to an HTML project using HTML markup and jQuery script.

To create a new HTML page in your favorite text editor, add the following code and save the document with an .html extension.

Drop down and copy markup

Paste in Notepad.	Copy Code
<!DOCTYPE HTML> <HTML> <head> </head> <body> </body> </HTML>

Add links to the dependencies to your HTML page within the <head> tags. Find the latest dependencies in the content delivery network (CDN) file at wijmo cdn.

Drop down and copy references to paste inside the head tags

Add the following markup within the <body> tags to create the widget. The <div> element creates the widget, and we call its id attribute in jQuery to initialize it.

Drop down and copy markup to paste inside the body tags

Markup	Copy Code
<div id="wijscatterchartDefault" style="width: 450px; height: 300px;"></div>

Within the <head> tags, below the references, add the following script to initialize the widget and populate it with data. The first part of the script creates the chart header, axes, hint, and legend, the seriesList section adds the data, and the final seriesStyle section sets the color, gradient, and stroke color for the data.

<script id="scriptInit" type="text/javascript"> $(document).ready(function () { $("#wijscatterchartDefault").wijscatterchart({ header: {text: "Height Versus Weight of 72 Individuals by Gender"}, axis: { y: { text: "Weight (kg)", labels: { style: {fill: "#7f7f7f", "font-size": "11pt"} }, gridMajor: { style: { stroke: "#353539", "stroke-dasharray": "- " } }, tickMajor: { position: "outside", style: { stroke: "#7f7f7f"} }, tickMinor: { position: "outside", style: { stroke: "#7f7f7f"}} }, x: { text: "Height (cm)", labels: { style: {fill: "#7f7f7f", "font-size": "11pt", rotation: -45} }, tickMajor: { position: "outside", style: { stroke: "#7f7f7f"}} } }, showChartLabels: false, hint: { content: function () { return this.x + ' cm, ' + this.y + ' kg' }, contentStyle: {"font-size": "10pt"}, offsetY: -10 }, seriesList: [ { label: "Female", data: { x: [161.4, 169.0, 166.2, 159.4, 162.5, 159.0, 162.8, 159.0, 179.8, 162.9, 161.0, 151.1, 168.2, 168.9, 173.2, 174.0, 162.6, 174.0, 162.6, 161.3, 156.2, 149.9, 169.5, 160.0, 175.3, 169.5, 160.0, 172.7, 162.6, 157.5, 176.5, 164.4, 160.7, 174.0, 163.8], y: [63.4, 58.2, 58.6, 45.7, 52.2, 48.6, 57.8, 55.6, 66.8, 59.4, 53.6, 73.2, 53.4, 69.0, 58.4, 73.6, 61.4, 55.5, 63.6, 60.9, 60.0, 46.8, 57.3, 64.1, 63.6, 67.3, 75.5, 68.2, 61.4, 76.8, 71.8, 55.5, 48.6, 66.4, 67.3] }, markerType: "circle" }, { label: "Male", data: { x: [175.0, 174.0, 165.1, 177.0, 192.0, 176.5, 169.4, 182.1, 179.8, 175.3, 184.9, 177.3, 167.4, 178.1, 168.9, 174.0, 167.6, 170.2, 167.6, 188.0, 174.0, 176.5, 180.3, 167.6, 188.0, 180.3, 167.6, 183.0, 183.0, 179.1, 170.2, 177.8, 179.1, 190.5, 177.8, 180.3, 180.3], y: [70.2, 73.4, 70.5, 68.9, 102.3, 68.4, 65.9, 75.7, 84.5, 87.7, 86.4, 73.2, 53.9, 72.0, 55.5, 70.9, 64.5, 77.3, 72.3, 87.3, 80.0, 82.3, 73.6, 74.1, 85.9, 73.2, 76.3, 65.9, 90.9, 89.1, 62.3, 82.7, 79.1, 98.2, 84.1, 83.2, 83.2] }, markerType: "diamond" } ], seriesStyles: [ {fill: "#afe500", stroke: "#afe500"}, {fill: "#ff9900", stroke: "#ff9900"} ] }); }); </script>
