Highcharts does not resize charts inside tabs

Question

I am using twitter bootstrap with tabs. I have multiple tabs and charts inside each tab. Upon browser resize, charts that are not on the current active tab do not get resized. Infact, it looks kind of funny with a thin bar. The current active tab works fine. Has anyone seen this issue and are there any workarounds ?

Answer 1

i fix this problem with the next code.

        $('#yourDivChart').highcharts({
            chart: {
                type: data.EjeX.Tipo,
                //width: width,
                //height: height,
                options3d: {
                    enabled: true,
                    alpha: 15,
                    beta: 15,
                    viewDistance: 25,
                    depth: 40
                },
                width: $('#DivContainerWithYourTabs').width() - 150
            },

in my case is a partial "_partialDetalleProyecto"

I hope works you.

Here is a working example:

http://codepen.io/colinsteinmann/pen/BlGfE

Basically the .reflow() function is called on each chart when a tab is clicked. That way the chart gets redrawn based on the new dimensions which are applied to the container when it becomes visible.

This is the most important snippet of code:

// fix dimensions of chart that was in a hidden element
jQuery(document).on( 'shown.bs.tab', 'a[data-toggle="tab"]', function (e) { // on tab selection event
    jQuery( ".contains-chart" ).each(function() { // target each element with the .contains-chart class
        var chart = jQuery(this).highcharts(); // target the chart itself
        chart.reflow() // reflow that chart
    });
})
