Need some assistance with Victory Charts

Question

I am working with React Victory Charts and need some assistance with styling.

I am very new to Victory Charts and your help will be highly accepted.

I need help with:

1. Padding between axis, bars and text.
2. Some text being cut off.
3. The bar sizes.

This is what I have:

<VictoryChart
  width={600}
  domainPadding={{ y: 50 }}>
    <VictoryAxis
        // tickValues specifies both the number of ticks and where
        // they are placed on the axis
        dependentAxis
        style={{
          tickLabels: {fontSize: 15, padding: 15 , width: 60}
        }}
        tickValues={[1, 2, 3, 4]}
        tickFormat={["Yes", "No", "Probably", "Never"]}
      />
  <VictoryBar horizontal
    offsetY={20}
    padding={{ top: 20, bottom: 60 }}
    style={{
      data: { fill: "rgb(23, 52, 76)" },
      parent: { border: "1px solid #ccc"},
    }}
      labels={(d) => ("| " + d.y + " (22%)")}
      data={data}
      x="quarter"
      y="earnings"
  />
</VictoryChart>

This is what am getting.

This is the kind of styling am looking to get.

Answer 1

For the text getting cut off, use the padding prop on VictoryChart like so:

<VictoryChart padding={{ left: 80, right: 100 }} />

This should give you enough space to keep your tick labels and bar labels from getting cut off. Note that domainPadding in this instance adds space above and below the bars.

To left-align the axis labels, you need to specify a tickLabelComponent on the axis, like this:

<VictoryAxis tickLabelComponent={<VictoryLabel x={10} textAnchor="start" />} />

To add spacing between the bars and axis, use the offsetX prop on the axis. It will space the axis from the left the specified amount, while the bars will be spaced from the left equal to the padding on the chart itself.

<VictoryAxis offsetX={80} />
