in chart js (4.4.8)

i want to give discrete line colors based on a baseline and threshold value of the data point.

1. when i give line segment colors it appies color to whole line segment and looks like this

when i give

   ctx.createLinearGradient(0, yBaselinePixel, 0, yThresholdPixel);

it looks like this

3. i want to apply colors to only those part of the line segment(not on whole line segment) which crosses baseline or threshold as following

example example reference link

i'm using chart.js 4.4.8 in vue.js 4.2.5

const getGradient = (ctx, chartArea, chart, yBaselinePixel, yThresholdPixel) => {

  const stopBaseline = normalize(yBaselinePixel);
  const stopThreshold = normalize(yThresholdPixel);

  const gradient = ctx.createLinearGradient(0, yBaselinePixel, 0, yThresholdPixel);
  gradient.addColorStop(0, "#22c55e");
  gradient.addColorStop(stopBaseline, "#f9ba4f");
  gradient.addColorStop(stopThreshold, "#f59e0b");
  gradient.addColorStop(1, "#ef4444");

• Please provide a minimal reproducible example. How are we supposed to help when we know nothing of your code? – kikon Commented 2 days ago
• added the code. thanks for considering. – nkd Commented 2 days ago
• the segment approach is coloring whole segment in one color. i want to add multiple color stops on the segment; not as continuous color gradient style but discrete color stops. – nkd Commented 2 days ago

I can't fully verify your code, as you haven't included data and other parameters like flushRateBaselineValue and flushRateBaselineValue.

But if the stopBaseLine and stopThreshold values are computed correctly, and you want to use color "#22c55e" from 0 to stopBaseLine, color "#f9ba4f" from stopBaseLine to stopThereshold and color #ef4444 from stopThereshold to 1, you have to set the gradient this way:

const gradient = ctx.createLinearGradient(0, chartArea.bottom, 0, chartArea.top);

gradient.addColorStop(0, "#22c55e");
gradient.addColorStop(stopBaseline, "#22c55e");

gradient.addColorStop(stopBaseline, "#f9ba4f");
gradient.addColorStop(stopThreshold, "#f9ba4f");

gradient.addColorStop(stopThreshold, "#ef4444");
gradient.addColorStop(1, "#ef4444");

The arguments of the function ctx.createLinearGradient are pixel positions of the full extent of the gradient.

And, if the color is to be the same on a fragment of the gradient - the fractional 0 to 1 positions of the color stops, should repeat that color for the start and end of that interval (as the linear interpolation between two equal values is constant -- the same value on the whole interval).

Here are those changes applied to a (debuggable) snippet, based on a standard example from chart.js docs:

const getGradient = (ctx, chartArea, chart, yBaselinePixel, yThresholdPixel) => {
    const normalize = (pixel) => (pixel - chartArea.bottom) / (chartArea.top - chartArea.bottom);
    const stopBaseline = normalize(yBaselinePixel);
    const stopThreshold = normalize(yThresholdPixel);

    const gradient = ctx.createLinearGradient(0, chartArea.bottom, 0, chartArea.top);

    gradient.addColorStop(0, "#22c55e");
    gradient.addColorStop(stopBaseline, "#22c55e");

    gradient.addColorStop(stopBaseline, "#f9ba4f");
    gradient.addColorStop(stopThreshold, "#f9ba4f");

    gradient.addColorStop(stopThreshold, "#ef4444");
    gradient.addColorStop(1, "#ef4444");

    return gradient;
}

let flushRateGradient;
const flushRateBaselineValue = 5;
const flushRateThresholdValue = 7;
const config = {
    type: 'line',
    data: {
        labels: ["January", "February", "March", "April", "May", "June", "July"],

            label: "Dataset 1",
            data: [

            ],
            tension: 0.2,
            borderColor: (context) => { // the gradient approach
                const chart = context.chart;
                const { ctx, chartArea } = chart;

                if (!chartArea) { // on initial chart load
                    return;
                }
                if (flushRateGradient) {
                    return flushRateGradient;
                }
                const yBaselinePixel = chart.scales.y.getPixelForValue(flushRateBaselineValue);

                flushRateGradient = getGradient(ctx, chartArea, chart, yBaselinePixel, yThresholdPixel);
                return flushRateGradient;
