noData Boolean|Object (default: true)

When no series data is available, the Chart will display an overlay element that contains a message with the text "No data available". The overlay will be automatically cleared if the series receive data.

To disable the "No Data" overlay, set this option to false.

Example - disable noData message

<div id="chart"></div>
<script>
$("#chart").kendoChart({
  legend: {
    visible: false
  },
  series: [
    { name: "Series 1", data: [] },
    { name: "Series 2", data: [] }
  ],
  noData: false
});
</script>

Example - customize noData message

<div id="chart"></div>
<script>
$("#chart").kendoChart({
  legend: {
    visible: false
  },
  series: [
    { name: "Series 1", data: [] },
    { name: "Series 2", data: [] }
  ],
  messages: {
    noData: "Loading..."
  }
});
</script>
