[Feature Request] On axis click

[pedrorfernandes]

Description

I have a use case for displaying a time series stacked bar chart, in which clicking a specific point on the X (time) axis should update an html video to the timestamp that was clicked (i.e. use the chart as a video scrubber)

The issue is that onclick processing is only done with associated data ([x,y] point), but for my scenario, every second does not necessarily have a data point associated (only x, no y value). It doesn't make sense to add a y value for each second of the video, as this pollutes the chart and the interpolated Y values are good enough.

Desired output

The solution I found was through this change, basically adding a axis_onclick called inside clickHandlerForSingleX()

Is there a better way to handle this requirement? Does it make sense to have an axis onClick?

which clicking a specific point on the X (time) axis

This means clicking axis area or shape(where the bar, line renders) area?
.clickHandlerForSingleX() is called on shape area's event, not for axis.

Ok then it's working for me because I've used a stacked area chart that covers 100% of the axis

Still, it would be useful for a click handler for anywhere in the chart region with just the mapped [X,Y] coordinates of the click, without associated data
