Hi, 

Google Chart will automatically raise the Y-axis' minimum value, so as to emphasis there differences. 

This is what I mean -- in https://jsfiddle.net/cL2q5p1z/1/, you can see that Y-axis' minimum value is 1.400,000. How to force it to zero, so as to emphasis on the comparative total size?

and found,

vAxis.baseline: vAxis property that specifies the baseline for the vertical axis.

so I tried to use "vAxis.baseline: 0," as shown in the jsfiddle, but that gave me an empty chart. 

Please help. 
Thanks

Hi Tong,

The abbreviation 'vAxis.baseline' actually means 'vAxis: { baseline: 0 }', though this is not particularly clear.  It works though: https://jsfiddle.net/cL2q5p1z/2/

Hi Daniel,
Even though I used the below code,it didn't worked out for me and the script i am using is <script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.gstatic.com/charts/loader.js"></script> where as in the jsfiddle its showing the old one.
Can you please give the latest solution for forcing the combo chart to start from zero for y-axis.

Thanks,
Naresh Gupta

Hi Daniel,I have used the following data and code,but still negative numbers are displaying for the yaxis.Can you please look into this as I dont need to display negative values in the chart

google.charts.load('current', {
  'packages': ['corechart']
});
google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawVisualization);

function drawVisualization() {
  // Some raw data (not necessarily accurate)
  var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([
    ['Method', 'Result size', 'conversion time (in seconds)'],
    ['veryfast', 0, 0],
    ['faster', 0, 0],
    ['fast', 0, 0],
    ['medium', 0, 0],
    ['slow', 0, 0],
    ['slower', 0, 0],
    ['veryslow', 0, 0]
  ]);

  var options = {
    title: 'ffmpeg preset comparison',
    vAxes: {
      // Adds titles to each axis.
      0: {
        title: 'Size',
        baseline: 0
      },
      1: {
        title: 'Time'
      }
    },
    //vAxis.baseline: 0,
    hAxis: {
      title: 'Method'
    },
    vaxis:{
    viewWindowMode:'explicit',
    viewWindow:{min:0}
    },
    pointSize: 5,
    curveType: 'function',
    seriesType: 'bars',
    series: {
      5: {
        type: 'line',
        targetAxisIndex: 1
      }
    }
  };

  var chart = new google.visualization.ComboChart(document.getElementById('chart_div'));
  chart.draw(data, options);
}

The 'function' curve can result in negative values being generated, unfortunately.  But you can force a cut-off of all negative values, if you want, by using the viewWindow.min option, set to 0.

I have already kept viewWindow.min to 0 in the vaxis,but still not able to cut-off the negative values.Please check my code once .

You have 2 vAxes, so you will have to constrain both of them since the each have a separate viewWindow. Hope that helps.

Now I am getting other error as "Uncaught TypeError: google.setOnLoadCallback is not a function" and the chart is not displaying.The following is the code:

Sorry for the confusion.I have changed the  google.setOnLoadCallback(drawVisualization); to  google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawVisualization); then it worked well for me.But still I am able to display the negative values even though I have added 
vAxes: {
      // Adds titles to each axis.
      0: {
        title: 'Size',
        baseline: 0,
        viewWindow: { min: 0 }
      },
      1: {
        title: 'Time',
        viewWindow: { min: 0 }
      }
    },

Please check again.

Interesting.  It appears there is a bug when you only have one data value, specifically the value 0.  In that case, the viewWindow is overridden to show the range -1 to 1.  This is a new bug, actually, which I should be able to fix (maybe very soon, depending on the cause).  But if you want this to work now, you can change 'current' to '45.2'.

Even more curious, if you *don't* specify any viewWindow.min option, then you will get a single '0' tick on the vertical axis and a single gridline at your baseline value of 0.  This may be another workaround for you.

Why specifying the viewWindow.min causes this, I don't know yet. But the single value (when you don't specify the viewWindow option) is a feature, since we don't know what the range of the axis should be with only one value.

I have once again tried with values "0" and not used vaxis.min option.Even then i got the same result(getting negative values in the yaxis).

This situation, with only a single 0 data value, is a non-typical edge case that I am not too concerned about.  I'll revisit this at some point in the future, but it is rather low priority.  Do you have an application where this because a problem, or is it merely an annoyance.

Thank you for fast reply.
Yes, I have an application with only 0 values for some cases, maybe it's not typical but it's really annoying.

This situation, with only a single 0 data value, is a non-typical edge case that I am not too concerned about.  I'll revisit this at some point in the future, but it is rather low priority.  Do you have an application where this because a problem, or is it merely an annoyance.

Its not a single edge case.  I am plotting rainfall, which is often zero.  Many graphs would show zero values.
On my graph, when the rainfall is zero, it shows vertical axes of -1.0 to 1.0, which looks pretty silly.  So vAxis: { viewWindow: { min: 0 } } just doesn't work.

BTW on this page:  https://developers.google.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/linechart
I assume   "vAxis.viewWindow.min The minimum horizontal data value to render."   is a copy/paste error?

And WRT my comment above, I'm using a line chart.

Hello everyone,
I know this issue is old but still can notice this bug. I create the issue at GitHub because didn't found someone related: https://github.com/google/google-visualization-issues/issues/2924
Also, there's a workaround defining vAxis.minValue or vAxis.maxValue to 1.0.

I hope this issue gets noticed and fixed, because I consider it's not an edge case to have a chart with only zero values and Y-axis representing for example, quantities (no negative values).

Thank you.
