Superset 4.0 already includes built-in support for Apache ECharts through a wide range of official plugins—like EchartsPieChart, EchartsAreaChart, EchartsTimeseries, Gantt, Treemap, Funnel, Sunburst, and more. These are available out of the box in the visualization options, so you don’t need to do any extra integration to use ECharts chart types in your dashboards or Explore UI. You can see the full list of ECharts plugins in the codebase [here](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset-frontend/src/visualizations/presets/MainPreset.js).
If you want to customize ECharts visualizations beyond what’s available in the UI, you’ll need to modify the frontend code—specifically the `controlPanel.tsx` and `transformProps.ts` files in the relevant ECharts plugin directory. There’s a helpful discussion about this [here](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/31802).
For creating new ECharts-based chart types or advanced customizations, Superset supports custom visualization plugins. The official docs cover this process in detail, including using the Yeoman generator to scaffold new plugins:
- [How to create visualization plugins](https://superset.apache.org/docs/contributing/creating-viz-plugins)
- [Community resource library with guides and videos](https://github.com/apache/superset/wiki/Community-Resource-Library)
- [Plugin generator README](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset-frontend/packages/generator-superset/README.md)
Let me know if you’re looking for something more specific, like extending an existing ECharts chart or building a brand new one!

Currently we have edited the existing transformprops file of respective chart to acheive the echart chart type.

Superset does **not** support all Apache ECharts chart types — it implements a curated subset of about 25 ECharts-based plugins [[1]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset-frontend/src/visualizations/presets/MainPreset.js). Each one is a purpose-built plugin with custom controls, query logic, and data transformations, rather than a generic ECharts wrapper.
For **line charts specifically**, here's what's available out of the box via the Timeseries plugin [[2]](https://github.com/apache/superset/blob/829e4d92d91ceae4b43b1ed3b063ffe45377799c/superset-frontend/plugins/plugin-chart-echarts/src/Timeseries/types.ts#L44-L52):
1. **Line** — standard straight-line segments
2. **Smooth Line** — smoothed/curved lines
3. **Step (Start/Middle/End)** — three step-line variants
4. **Scatter** — point-only display
5. **Area** — an overlay option that can combine with any of the above line styles
So you'll see ~2–3 distinct "line chart" entries in the chart picker (Line, Smooth Line, Step), which is fewer than what the Apache ECharts gallery shows because Superset only exposes chart types that have been fully implemented as plugins with their own control panels and data pipelines.
This was confirmed to be an **architectural decision, not a configuration choice** — there are no feature flags or settings to unlock additional ECharts types [[3]](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/41663). To add a chart variant that isn't already included, you'd need to write a custom plugin. The [earlier reply in this thread](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/34101) and [this related discussion](https://github.com/apache/superset/discussions/41663) both walk through the steps for creating one.
