assetsUrlBase: string
Default value: ""
Inherited from: BaseSettings

The URL root where the ZoomCharts library and assets are located. For example, if the base.css file is available at 'http://server/css/zoomcharts/zc.css' then this value should be set to 'http://server/css/zoomcharts/'. Note that the library will try to determine its location automatically by searching the included script tags. So this property can be skipped if the assets folder is located next to 'zoomcharts.js' file on the server.

container: string | HTMLElement
Default value: null
Inherited from: BaseSettings

Element of the page where the chart will be inserted. Any HTML element should work, for example you can use a <div>.

Any contents of the element will be cleared - this behavior can be used to specify a loading message as the initial content, for example <div>Chart is being initialized...</div>.

Note that a single element can host only one chart. If the same container is given to another chart, the previous chart will be automatically disposed.

Unless parentChart is specified, the value of the property is mandatory and can only be specified while creating the chart, not with updateSettings. The value can be either an ID of an existing element or a reference to a DOM element.
