Class: CurveEdit

CIQ .UI. CurveEdit

new CurveEdit( [node], context [, params])

UI Helper for cross section curve interaction by means of context menu options.

When the enableTimeSeries property of the plugins.crossSection object in the chart configuration object is set to true, users can right‑click data points on the curve to open a context menu:

Launch Time Series

If Launch Time Series is then selected, a time series chart for that instrument opens in a new browser tab.

See the context menu markup example below.

For information about the plugins.crossSection configuration object, see the Chart Configuration tutorial.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Argument	Default	Description
`node`	HTMLElement	<optional>	context.topNode	Automatically attaches to the top node of the context. Not currently used.
`context`	CIQ.UI.Context			The context for the chart.
`params.enableTimeSeries`	boolean	<optional>	false	Specifies whether a link to a time series chart should appear when right-clicking on a point on the chart.
`params.timeSeriesSymbologyEncoder`	function	<optional>	CIQ.Market.Symbology.encodeTermStructureInstrumentSymbol	Function that converts an instrument to a market ticker. Takes an `entity` and an `instrument` as parameters.
`params`	object	<optional>	{pathToTimeSeries:"plugins/crosssection/sample-time-series-instant-chart.html"}	Provides the path to a template used by the launchTimeSeries method to load a time series chart.

Since:
