Is there a way to incorporate an event into the legend of chart.js?

I've recently managed to incorporate an event based on this post, but unfortunately, it's not being triggered. Any thoughts on why that might be? For reference, I am utilizing the default chart.js legend.

Chart.helpers.each(vm.chart.legend.legendItems, function(legendNode, index) {
  Chart.helpers.addEvent(legendNode, 'mouseover', function() {
    console.log('event triggered!');
  });
});

A Brief Overview of the Code: This code snippet adds the specified event to each individual legend item.

Tools Utilized: angularjs and chartjs 2.1.6

Answer №1

I received feedback from a developer regarding custom events in canvas legends. Unfortunately, it is not currently supported to add custom events to the canvas legend. The suggested solution is to create your own HTML legend using myChartInstance.generateLegend().

I have submitted a request for this feature and will provide an update if they decide to include it natively.
