Overview

The elementHighlightByColor interaction targets chart elements. When the mouse hovers over an element, it highlights all elements with the same color channel value as the hovered element.

Trigger: Mouse hover over element.
End: Mouse leaves element.
Affected states:

Hovered elements change to active state.

Other elements change to inactive state.

Built-in interaction states:

({
  // Active state elements have 1px black border
  state: { active: { lineWidth: '1', stroke: '#000' } },
});

import { Chart } from '@antv/g2';

const chart = new Chart({ container: 'container' });

chart.options({
  type: 'interval',
  data: {
    type: 'fetch',
    value:
      'https://gw.alipayobjects.com/os/bmw-prod/f129b517-158d-41a9-83a3-3294d639b39e.csv',
    format: 'csv',
  },
  encode: { x: 'state', y: 'population', color: 'age' },
  transform: [
    { type: 'stackY' },
    { type: 'sortX', by: 'y', reverse: true, slice: 5 },
  ],
  state: {
    active: { fill: 'red', linkFillOpacity: 0.5 },
    inactive: { opacity: 0.5 },
  },
  axis: { y: { labelFormatter: '~s' } },
  interaction: { elementHighlightByColor: { link: true } },
});

chart.render();

Usage

There are two ways to configure the elementHighlightByColor interaction:

First, pass a boolean to set whether to enable the interaction.

({
  type: 'interval',
  interaction: { elementHighlightByColor: true }, // Use default configuration
});

Second, pass configuration options to configure the interaction.

({
  type: 'line',
  interaction: {
    elementHighlightByColor: {
      background: true,
    },
  },
});

Configuration Level

Interaction can be configured at the Mark level:

({
  type: 'interval',
  interaction: { elementHighlightByColor: true },
});

It can also be configured at the View level. Interactions declared on the view will be passed to marks declared in children. If the mark has declared the corresponding interaction, they will be merged; otherwise, it won't be affected.

({
  type: 'view',
  interaction: { elementHighlightByColor: true },
});

Configuration Options
