Troubleshooting

This article provides solutions for issues you might encounter while working with the Kendo UI Charts for Angular.

Installation

The kendo-chart component requires Hammer.js to be installed as a dependency. The error occurs because Hammer.js is not loaded.

Solution

Install the Hammer.js package and import it by using the import 'hammerjs'; command.

The Chart is clipped during printing

The Chart element may overflow the page during printing.

To resolve this issue:

  1. Set the print dimensions of the Chart by using a Media Query.
  2. Before printing, call the resize method.

Due to Bug 774398, Firefox does not support the suggested approach.

import { Component, OnInit, OnDestroy, ViewEncapsulation, ViewChild } from '@angular/core';
import { ChartComponent } from '@progress/kendo-angular-charts';

@Component({
    selector: 'my-app',

    // Set print dimensions using a media query
    styles: [`
      @media print {
        kendo-chart {
          width: 200mm;
        }
      }
    `],

    template: `
        <kendo-chart #chart [categoryAxis]="{ categories: categories }">
            <kendo-chart-title text="Gross domestic product growth /GDP annual %/"></kendo-chart-title>
            <kendo-chart-legend position="bottom" orientation="horizontal"></kendo-chart-legend>
            <kendo-chart-tooltip format="{0}%"></kendo-chart-tooltip>
            <kendo-chart-series>
                <kendo-chart-series-item *ngFor="let item of series"
                    type="line" style="smooth" [data]="item.data" [name]="item.name">
