Rolling Pin Legend

Overview​

RollingPinLegend is a stand-alone component that can be used alongside your visualization to compactly label marginal values while also displaying the color scheme used.

Legend Contents​

RollingPinLegend requires the rects property, an array of strings representing colors used in a legend.

leftLabelText and rightLabelText are optional, but it is recommended to use at least one of them.

Here is an example of a basic configuration:

component.tsx
function Component(props) {
const rects = [
`#11F`,
`#55F`,
`#99F`,
`#DDF`,
`#fff`,
`#FDD`,
`#F99`,
`#F55`,
`#F11`
]

return (
<VisRollingPinLegend
rects={rects}
leftLabelText="Democrat"
rightLabelText="Republican"
/>
)
}
Loading...

Label Configuration​

Font Size​

The labels' font size can be changed with a valid font-size CSS string provided to the labelMaxWidth property.

<VisRollingPinLegend rects={rects} labelFontSize="x-large"/>
Loading...

Custom Class​

You can also add any further configuration for labels by providing labelClassName with your custom css class.
