Is there a way to specify the y-axis crossing point? - echarts

Question

In the example below the y-axis crosses at 1, rather than 0. Is there a way to achieve this in echarts?

Answer 1

It seems to me, literally, you can't do this with basic bar chart because it will break the coordinate system and result will be anything but not a bar chart.
If you need only visual like on attached picture then you can hide xAxis and draw its surrogate with markLine but you will have the troubles with bar positioning (that will fix with stack and transparent bars, see below).
If you need real chart with responsive, zoomable and other opts then in the Echarts you can use custom series for build own chart type (see example).
Example how to make picture like attached:
var myChart = echarts.init(document.getElementById('main'));
var option = {
tooltip: {},
xAxis: {
data: ['Category-1', 'Category-2', 'Category-3', 'Category-4'],
show: true,
axisLine: {
show: true,
lineStyle: {
opacity: 0
}
},
axisTick: {
show: false,
}
},
yAxis: {
max: 4,
min: -1
},
series: [{
name: 'Series-1',
type: 'bar',
stack: 'group',
data: [1, 1, -3],
color: 'rgba(0,0,0, 0)',
}, {
name: 'Series-2',
type: 'bar',
stack: 'group',
data: [{
value: 1,
itemStyle: {
color: 'red'
}
}, {
value: 2,
itemStyle: {
color: 'green'
}
}, {
value: 1,
itemStyle: {
color: 'orange'
}
}],
markLine: {
symbol: "none",
data: [{
silent: false,
yAxis: 1,
lineStyle: {
color: "#000",
width: 1,
type: "solid"
}
}, ],
label: {
show: false,
}
},
}]
};
myChart.setOption(option);
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/echarts#4.8.0/dist/echarts.min.js"></script>
<div id="main" style="width: 600px;height:400px;"></div>
P.S. If this not a secret, why you need it?
