Hi Experts,

I am struggling to stop time chart drilldown using js. Here is the code.

this._chartView = new ChartView({
                managerid: 'details-search-manager',
                'charting.legend.placement': 'none'
                'charting.drilldown': 'none'    
});

'charting.legend.placement': 'none' is working absolutely fine but 'charting.drilldown': 'none' is getting ignored by Splunk. Please help.

The only stupid problem with my code was that I was missing ',' in the 3rd line .Due to this silly mistake Splunk was ignoring 3rd line .

Javascript provides a method called preventDefault(). The method must be tied to an event. Below is an example using table.

splunkTable = new TableView({
    id: "members"+epoch2.getTime(),
    managerid: elementSearch,
    el: $(innerElement)
}).render();
splunkTable.on("click", function(e) {
    e.preventDefault();
});

The sample above is an extract from a working Splunk project.
