Inheritance: StockPanel → AmSerialChart → AmRectangularChart → AmCoordinateChart → AmChart
StockPanel class creates stock panels (charts). AmStockChart can have multiple Stock panels.
| Property | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| allowTurningOff | Boolean | false | Specifies whether x button will be displayed near the panel. This button allows turning panel off. |
| angle | Number | 0 | The angle of the 3D part of plot area. This creates a 3D effect (if the "depth3D" is > 0). |
| autoMarginOffset | Number | 10 | Space left from axis labels/title to the chart's outside border, if autoMargins set to true. |
| autoMargins | Boolean | true | Specifies if margins of a chart should be calculated automatically so that labels of axes would fit. The chart will adjust only margins with axes. Other margins will use values set with marginRight, marginTop, marginLeft and marginBottom properties. |
| backgroundColor | String | #FFFFFF | Background color. You should set backgroundAlpha to >0 value in order background to be visible. We recommend setting background color directly on a chart's DIV instead of using this property. |
| balloon | AmBalloon | AmBalloon | The chart creates AmBalloon class itself. If you want to customize balloon, get balloon instance using this property, and then change balloon's properties. |
| borderAlpha | Number | 0 | Opacity of chart's border. Value range is 0 - 1. |
| borderColor | String | #000000 | Color of chart's border. You should set borderAlpha >0 in order border to be visible. We recommend setting border color directly on a chart's DIV instead of using this property. |
| categoryAxis | CategoryAxis | instance of CategoryAxis | Read-only. Chart creates category axis itself. If you want to change some properties, you should get this axis from the chart and set properties to this object. |
| categoryField | String | Category field name tells the chart the name of the field in your dataProvider object which will be used for category axis values. | |
| chartCursor | ChartCursor | Chart cursor. | |
| chartData | Array | Read-only. Array of SerialDataItem objects generated from dataProvider. | |
| chartScrollbar | ChartScrollbar | Chart scrollbar. | |
| color | String | #000000 | Text color. |
| colors | Array | ['#FF6600', '#FCD202', '#B0DE09', '#0D8ECF', '#2A0CD0', '#CD0D74', '#CC0000', '#00CC00', '#0000CC', '#DDDDDD', '#999999', '#333333', '#990000'] | Specifies the colors of the graphs if the lineColor of a graph is not set. It there are more graphs then colors in this array, the chart picks random color. |
| columnSpacing | Number | 5 | The gap in pixels between two columns of the same category. |
| columnSpacing3D | Number | 0 | Space between 3D stacked columns. |
| columnWidth | Number | 0.8 | Relative width of columns. Value range is 0 - 1. |
| dataProvider | Array | Array of data objects, for example: [{country:"US", value:524},{country:"UK", value:624},{country:"Lithuania", value:824}]. You can have any number of fields and use any field names. In case of AmMap, data provider should be MapData object. | |
| dataProvider | Array | Array holding chart's data. | |
| depth3D | Number | 0 | The depth of the 3D part of plot area. This creates a 3D effect (if the "angle" is > 0). |
| drawingIconsEnabled | Boolean | false | If true, drawing icons will be displayed in top-right corner. |
| drawOnAxis | ValueAxis | Specifies on which value axis user can draw trend lines. Set drawingIconsEnabled to true if you want drawing icons to be visible. First value axis will be used if not set here. | |
| endDate | Date | Read-only. If category axis parses dates endDate indicates date to which the chart is currently displayed. | |
| endIndex | Number | Read-only. Category index to which the chart is currently displayed. | |
| eraseAll | Boolean | false | Specifies if all trend lines should be erased when erase button is clicked. If false, trend lines can be erased one by one. |
| fontFamily | String | Verdana | Font family. |
| fontSize | Number | 11 | Font size. |
| graphs | Array | The array of graphs belonging to this chart. To add/remove graph use addGraph/removeGraph methods instead of adding/removing graphs directly to array. | |
| height | Number/String | 100% | Height of a chart. "100%" means the chart's height will be equal to it's container's (DIV) height and will resize if height of the container changes. Set a number instead of percents if your chart's size needs to be fixed. |
| iconSize | Number | 18 | Size of trend line drawing icons. If you change this size, you should update icon images if you want them to look properly. |
| legendDiv | DIV object | Reference to the div of the legend. | |
| marginBottom | Number | 20 | Number of pixels between the container's bottom border and plot area. This space can be used for bottom axis' values. If autoMargin is true and bottom side has axis, this property is ignored. |
| marginLeft | Number | 20 | Number of pixels between the container's left border and plot area. This space can be used for left axis' values. If autoMargin is true and left side has axis, this property is ignored. |
| marginRight | Number | 20 | Number of pixels between the container's right border and plot area. This space can be used for Right axis' values. If autoMargin is true and right side has axis, this property is ignored. |
| marginsUpdated | Boolean | false | Flag which should be set to false if you need margins to be recalculated on next chart.validateNow() call. |
| marginTop | Number | 20 | Number of pixels between the container's top border and plot area. This space can be used for top axis' values. If autoMargin is true and top side has axis, this property is ignored. |
| maxSelectedSeries | Number | Maximum number of series allowed to select. | |
| maxSelectedTime | Number | The longest time span allowed to select (in milliseconds) for example, 259200000 will limit selection to 3 days. | |
| minSelectedTime | Number | 0 | The shortest time span allowed to select (in milliseconds) for example, 1000 will limit selection to 1 second. |
| numberFormatter | Object | {precision:-1, decimalSeparator:'.', thousandsSeparator:','} | Object with precision, decimalSeparator and thousandsSeparator set which will be used for number formatting. Precision set to -1 means that values won't be rounded. |
| panEventsEnabled | Boolean | false | This setting affects touch-screen devices only. If a chart is on a page, and panEventsEnabled are set to true, the page won't move if the user touches the chart first. If a chart is big enough and occupies all the screen of your touch device, the user won’t be able to move the page at all. That's why the default value is "false". If you think that selecting/panning the chart or moving/pinching the map is a primary purpose of your users, you should set panEventsEnabled to true. |
| pathToImages | String | Specifies path to the folder where images like resize grips, lens and similar are. | |
| percentFormatter | Object | {precision:2, decimalSeparator:'.', thousandsSeparator:','} | Object with precision, decimalSeparator and thousandsSeparator set which will be used for formatting percent values. |

| plotAreaBorderColor | String | #000000 | The color of the plot area's border. Note, the it is invisible by default, as plotAreaBorderAlpha default value is 0. Set it to a value higher than 0 to make it visible. |
| plotAreaFillAlphas | Number | 0 | Opacity of plot area. Plural form is used to keep the same property names as our Flex charts'. Flex charts can accept array of numbers to generate gradients. Although you can set array here, only first value of this array will be used. |
| plotAreaFillColors | String/Array | #FFFFFF | You can set both one color if you need a solid color or array of colors to generate gradients, for example: ["#000000", "#0000CC"] |
| plotAreaGradientAngle | Number | 0 | If you are using gradients to fill the plot area, you can use this property to set gradient angle. The only allowed values are horizontal and vertical: 0, 90, 180, 270. |

To enable prefixes, set usePrefixes property to true. |

| rotate | Boolean | false | If you set this to true, the chart will be rotated by 90 degrees (the columns will become bars). |
| sequencedAnimation | Boolean | true | Specifies whether the animation should be sequenced or all objects should appear at once. |
| showCategoryAxis | Boolean | true | Specifies whether this panel will show category axis. |
| startAlpha | Number | 1 | The initial opacity of the column/line. If you set startDuration to a value higher than 0, the columns/lines will fade in from startAlpha. Value range is 0 - 1. |
| startDate | Date | Read-only. If category axis parses dates startDate indicates date from which the chart is currently displayed. | |
