< p > With Chart.js, it is possible to create mixed charts that are a combination of two or more different chart types. A common example is a bar chart that also includes a line dataset.< / p >
< p > Creating a mixed chart starts with the initialization of a basic chart.< / p >

data: data,
options: options
});
< / code > < / pre >
< p > At this point we have a standard bar chart. Now we need to convert one of the datasets to a line dataset.< / p >
< pre > < code class = "lang-javascript" > < span class = "hljs-keyword" > var< / span > mixedChart = < span class = "hljs-keyword" > new< / span > Chart(ctx, {

< p > At this point we have a chart rendering how we' d like. It' s important to note that the default options for a line chart are not merged in this case. Only the options for the default type are merged in. In this case, that means that the default options for a bar chart are merged because that is the type specified by the < code > type< / code > field.< / p >
