React to Resize Events

This applies to: Visual Data Discovery

When a user resizes a chart widget, you must account for the new widget dimensions. You can specify your own resize handler function by overriding the controller.resize method.

Example:

controller.resize = function(newWidth, newHeight) {
  // If needed, use the newWidth and newHeight values to re-size chart  
}

The specified handler executes every time a user action causes the widget dimensions to change. The following list provides a few examples of actions that trigger the resize event:

• A user changes the dimensions of the browser window.
• A user changes the dimensions of an individual widget.

Hiding or displaying controls like the Time Bar may reduce or increase the space available for widgets in a dashboard.
