opacity of highcharts heatmap data points reduces to zero

Recently, I integrated a Heat Map feature from the Highcharts library into my app. However, I encountered a strange issue where certain rows of data were not displaying on the map. Please refer to the screenshot below for reference:

Upon inspecting the elements, I found that the opacity of all row cells was set to 0. Changing this value to 1 in Chrome revealed the missing items.

Here is a snippet of my JS code:

$highchart1.highcharts({
            exporting: false,
            credits: false,

            chart: {
                type: 'heatmap',
                marginTop: 40,
                marginBottom: 120
            },


            title: {
                align: 'left',
                text: 'Some chart title',
                style: { color: 'red' }
            },

            xAxis: {
                categories: pillarOrClusters,
                labels: {
                    style: { color: '#000' }
                }
            },

            yAxis: {
                categories: locations,
                title: summary.locationType,
                labels: {
                    style: { color: '#000' }
                }
            },

            colorAxis: {
                min: 0,
                minColor: '#FFFFFF',
                maxColor: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]
            },

            legend: {
                enabled: false
            },

            tooltip: {
                formatter: function () {
                    return '<b>' + this.series.xAxis.categories[this.point.x] + '</b> has <br><b>' +
                        this.point.value + '</b> items in <br><b>' + this.series.yAxis.categories[this.point.y] + '</b>';
                }
            },

            series: [{
                name: 'Pillars per' + summary.locationType, // Loaded from Service
                borderWidth: 1,
                data: data,
                dataLabels: {
                    enabled: true,
                    color: '#000000'
                }
            }]

        });

I am puzzled as to why the map would set the opacity to 0 for entire row elements. Any insights or suggestions on resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Answer №1

The problem arose specifically in Chrome and occasionally in IE due to the chart's height being insufficient. I resolved it by calculating the chart height based on the items listed on the yAxis with the following code:

//locations is an array of strings that will be displayed on the yAxis
var chartHeight = locations.length * 35;
if (chartHeight < 350) chartHeight = 350;

I then applied this calculation as follows:

        chart: {
                type: 'heatmap',
                marginTop: 40,
                height: chartHeight,
                marginBottom: 130,
                backgroundColor: '#F0F0F0',
                borderColor: '#E5E5E5',
                borderWidth: 2,
                borderRadius: 4,
                events: {
                    load: function () { 
                        /* THIS WAS A TEMPORARY FIX I USED TO ENSURE PROPER RENDERING */
                        /* $(".highcharts-data-labels g").attr("opacity", 1); */
                    }
                }
            }

Changing the height calculation to locations.length * 30 caused a similar issue in Chrome, while using locations.length * 25 triggered the problem in IE as well.

I hope this solution proves helpful to others facing a similar challenge.
