Charts Shrinking on Page Load

Current behavior

I know I've not changed anything on my end. All of a sudden various different chart types have been shrinking on page load for no apparent reason.

I'm pulling the JS from

I can't be the only one experiencing this, surely?

The setup I'm working with is basic out of the box ChartJS stuff that has been working fine for years.

I am having the same issue. I was able to resolve one chart (bar chart) by adding min-height & min-width values in a style tag for the canvas element. But did not get the same result with a pie chart. I am pulling in data from a local dev database but I will attempt to get recreate on codepen and if I can reproduce the issue there I will post a link in this comment. I am happy to provide a copy of my code - but I am not sure if it would be of value since it references several local resources and is not in production

@MichaelCropper By using in the head I was able to stop the issue. Not a fix, but its something.

[MichaelCropper]

Good shout @jonellwood That's solved the issue, just use an older version. Really surprised that this bug hasn't been resolved in hours. I think I first spotted this a couple of weeks ago.

@MichaelCropper you are welcome to put in a PR if you can resolve the issue that quick

[dangreen]

@MichaelCropper Also, we would very much appreciate it if you provide a sandbox with issue reproduction

[jonellwood]

@dangreen I tried to get a pen that recreated the issue but alas it worked as expected and I could not recreate it. I will try again later tonight after work to see if I can get you a reproduction of the issue.

I've been having a play to see what is causing this as it is odd. The behaviour that I'm seeing is that the element is shrinking by 1 on a loop when hovering over the chart.

Took a lot of playing around and trying things, but found what is causing the issue.

To reproduce;

1. Open Chrome
2. CTRL + Scroll Down to get to 90% Zoom
3. Load page with a chart on (

#2 and #3 doesn't really matter which order you do this in, same issue in both orders

What is really odd that it seems that this issue is only 90% Zoom. Doesn't seem to be impacted on the other zoom levels.

I've also tried on different screen sizes (laptop + second monitor) and doesn't seem to be related to that.

Should be fixed in v4.1.1

[MichaelCropper]

Good job chaps, I've just tested on v4.1.1 and this look to be fixed now.

[simPod]

We're still experiencing the issue on 4.4.1. Any way to debug?

[gbaron]

@simPod could you please post a reproducible sample?

Chart.js need to have a container around the canvas, with nothing else in it. Maybe in your case it does not? <div><chavas id="myChart"></canvas></div>

[MichaelCropper]

@simPod 4.4.1? Time travelling? Sure that is a typo, but if you could confirm what version you are running. Latest version is 4.1.1.

Also, what Web Browser? And what Zoom %?

The basic setup is working for me now in 4.1.1 since the fix with;

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]"></script>

and

<canvas id="myChart"></canvas>

With the relevant stuff in the script tag for all the chart settings etc. (not shown for ease, copy from the docs)

[jonellwood]

Thats great news!

Someone help the chartjs is shrinking only in chrome

[simonwickes]

This issue is still not resolved. I am using this link to chartjs:

My chart builds OK on localhost, no weirdness. But when I upload to the server on chrome and have zoom NOT at 100% it shrinks comically over and over. There are no issues on my localhost (browsersync) but the server is MS IIS. I'm seeing it in Chrome today 7/18/2024. Frustrating as I have no control over users browser zoom settings. This is built on Bootstrap5 which has shown no issues aside from this on the same platform.

options: { #maintainAspectRatio: false, responsive: true

when i added the maintainAspectRatio line it stopped though the graphs no longer look at good
