How to clear a chart from a canvas so that hover events cannot be triggered?

Question

I\'m using Chartjs to display a Line Chart and this works fine:

// get line chart canvas
var targetCanvas = document.getElementById(\'chartCanvas\').getConte         


        

Answer 1

I couldn't get .destroy() to work either so this is what I'm doing. The chart_parent div is where I want the canvas to show up. I need the canvas to resize each time, so this answer is an extension of the above one.

HTML:

JQuery:

  $('#chart').remove(); // this is my  element
  $('#chart_parent').append('Total
');
