Usage #
This is the code behind the preview above. It is built from VolumeProfile and valueArea.
import { VolumeProfile } from "@/components/ui/volume-profile" const bins = [96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104].map((price, index) => ({ price, buy: 30 + ((index * 17) % 40), sell: 25 + ((index * 23) % 45) })); export function PriceVolume() { return ( <div className="w-full max-w-sm"> <VolumeProfile label="Volume by price" data={bins} current={100.5} /> </div> ); }
API reference #
VolumeProfile
component
valueArea
component
No props of its own; it accepts the native props of its root element.
Accessibility #
It exposes group and status semantics, with aria-label, aria-busy and aria-hidden kept in step with state. Changes that matter are announced through a live region.
No custom key handling; Tab and the native activation keys do the work.
Motion #
It declares no animation in its component source. Any transition comes from its stylesheet, which uses the duration tokens that collapse to instant under prefers-reduced-motion.
