I'm trying to use the advanced config editor to add series labels to the chart. I have a pivoted dimension and want each line to have a label that is the value of the pivoted dimension. I found this example from the highcharts forum that shows basically exactly what I want to do ... https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/hmtdczok/ ... but it doesn't work when I try to run in Looker.
Does Looker not allow to use functions within Highcharts? What can and can't we do with highcharts? There's not really good documentation on this.
Hi there -
There is a list of valid HighCharts JSON that the config editor accepts. From this I found that we can add annotations/captions to a chart using the annotations or chart attributes.
Let me know if this gets you what you need!
Hi Amanda. That documentation link is helpful, but from what I can tell what I'm trying to do isn't possible. In that example you have to choose a specific point to set the label and explicitly define the label to be added. What I want to do is have a pivoted dimension for a line chart so that each pivot is it's own line, and then I want the dimension value to be the label for that line. So it would need to be dynamic, not manually set.
