Adding gridlines to a Chart
instance
Gridlines can be used to make a chart more readable. You can add gridlines to a chart with the horizontalGridlines
and verticalGridlines
attributes. There are 2 ways to
add gridlines to a chart. Setting either attribute to true
will add gridlines with default styling. Alternatively, you can pass a style object to either attribute. The styles
object of a gridline contains the line property with color, alpha and weight attributes.
