Inverted Link chart- Highcharts - highcharts

I am new to highcharts. Is there anyway I can achieve kind of chart functionality using highcharts in which series label are on top and y axis is drawn vertically as shown in this image
Chart

You just can build a chart with multiple y-axes and enabled inverted option:
chart: {
inverted: true
},
yAxis: [{
opposite: true,
width: '40%'
}, {
offset: 0,
opposite: true,
width: '50%',
left: '50%'
}]

Highcharts legend is overlapping on to the graph area

I'm using highcharts to plot out a line graph of quite a few sections. I want the legend to be static at the bottom of the graph area. The height of the graph area can be fixed but the legends can change dynamically.
I'm using the below options in for legend object
legend: {
useHTML: true,
enabled: true,
reversed: false,
verticalAlign: 'bottom',
floating: true,
align: 'center',
padding: 10,
margin: 20,
itemDistance: 10,
itemStyle: {
'font-size': '14px',
'color': colors.greyDark,
'font-family': fonts.proximaNovaBold,
'letter-spacing': '0',
'line-height': '17px',
'text-align': 'center',
},
itemMarginBottom: 10,
x: 0,
y: 100
},
I have replicated it in the fiddle
https://jsfiddle.net/x496tLmf/1/
Is there any way to fix this and have the legends stuck to the bottom. All of them need to display as the graph will be exported as static image.
There are two main issues why the legend overlaps the chart:
When you manually set the chart margin, the chart won't reserve space for the legend.
When you enable the legend floating option, you explicitly allow legend for overlapping
API: https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/legend.floating
The solution here is to remove the properties mentioned before and let the chart calculate the position of the legend.
However when you want to export this chart as a static image with all the legend items you have to specify the size of each element together with some overflow style to cut them a bit.
You might also reduce the spacing in between them, to increase the chart area.
legend: {
useHTML: true,
enabled: true,
reversed: false,
itemWidth:120,
itemStyle: {
'font-size': '14px',
'color': colors.greyDark,
'font-family': fonts.proximaNovaBold,
'letter-spacing': '0',
'line-height': '17px',
'text-align': 'center',
"textOverflow": "ellipsis"
},
},

yAxis resize controlled axis prev option not working Highcharts

I have some highstock chart series with multiple yAxis. When I used resize enabled to true, a resizer comes and it resizes the chart as well. I want only one resizer at the bottom of 3 series which resizes the previous axis also. I think my top property in yAxis is preventing the charts from going above another axis. Please help.
I tried controlled axis previous property. which dint work
yAxis: [{
labels: {
align: 'right',
x: -3
},
height: '65%',
lineWidth: 2,
id:'cdStick'
}
, {
labels: {
align: 'right',
x: -3
},
top: '65%',
height: '35%',
lineWidth: 2,
offset: 0,
id:'vol'
resize: {
enabled: true,
controlledAxis: {
prev: ['cdStick']
}
}
}]

Horizontal crosshairs for multiple series

It seems like when I enable crosshair for the yAxis, only the last series defined get a crosshair. I would like all of them to be crosshaired.
(.. and I would love if they also had the color (or preferably a darker variant) as the series.)
You can create an y axis per series, link those additional axes to the first one and define a specific crosshair in each axis - then link series with a specific axis and you will get an seperate customizable crosshair per series.
Highcharts.chart('container', {
yAxis: [{
gridLineWidth: 0,
crosshair: {
width: 2,
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]
}
}, {
linkedTo: 0,
crosshair: {
width: 2,
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[1]
},
visible: false
}],
tooltip: {
shared: true
},
series: [{
data: data.slice()
}, {
yAxis: 1,
data: data.reverse()
}]
});

How to make highcharts scrollable horizontally when having big range in x-axis

I am generating my x-axis and y-axis data dynamically and displaying highcharts, but the chart becomes messy when the x-axis range is high with small intervals.
How do I make highcharts to make normal horizontally scrollable graph?
Here is what I am using right now:
<div id="container" style="min-width: 400px; height: 400px; margin: 0 auto"></div>
//CODE FOR HIGHCHARTS JS
function makeChart() {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'line',
marginRight: 130,
marginBottom: 100
},
title: {
text: 'Banana',
x: -20 //center
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Source: banana.com',
x: -20
},
xAxis: {
categories: xlist
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'No. of C'
},
plotLines: [{
value: 0,
width: 1,
color: '#808080'
}]
},
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: 'C'
},
legend: {
layout: 'vertical',
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'top',
x: -10,
y: 100,
borderWidth: 0
},
series: [{
name: $("#repoSelector option:selected").text(),
data: ylist
}]
});
}
Two ways to achieve a scroll bar.
Option 1
You will need to use highstock.js and instead of rendering a stock chart, you have to render a highchart.
Then enable the scroll bar
scrollbar: {
enabled: true
}
Check the API for scroll bar and related operations here.
Here I have fiddled an example.
Option 2
Try setting min & max attributes to the x-axis.
xAxis: {
categories: [...],
min: 0,
max:9
}
Displays 10 categories in x-axis at a stretch, adding a scroll for the rest of the categories.
find the fiddled example here.
To enable scrollbar in x-axis, try this
xAxis: {
categories: xlist,
min: 0,
max: 4,
scrollbar: {
enabled: true
},
},
Check the jfiddle here: https://jsfiddle.net/BhavyaAprajita/zja90wf2/1/
Also, make sure that you import the highstock library
src="https://code.highcharts.com/stock/highstock.js"
add this
const Highcharts = require('highcharts/highstock');
comment this if you have
// import Highcharts from 'highcharts';
change xAxis to like this
xAxis : {
categories: [],
min:0,
max:9,
scrollbar: {
enabled: true
}
}
Use
require('highcharts/highmaps') instead of require('highcharts') in imports<br>
#NgModule({<br>
...<br>
imports: [<br>
BrowserModule, <br>
ChartModule.forRoot( <br>
require('highcharts/highmaps')<br>
],<br>
})

HighCharts: how to draw a radar plot showing different scale labels on each axis?

I need to plot a radar chart using HighCharts; in particular, all of the series have a different scale. I am able to draw correctly the radar chart using multiple scales (one per y-axis), but I see multiple overlapping labels on the main y-axis, which is clearly wrong. Now, I want instead to plot the labels related to every y-axis on the corresponding y-axis. How can I do this ?
Here is a snippet that can be pasted in jsFiddle to verify that the labels indeed overlap.
$(function () {
window.chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
polar: true,
type: 'line',
zoomType: 'xy'
},
title: {
text: 'Indicators Radar Chart',
x: -80
},
pane: {
size: '90%'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'],
tickmarkPlacement: 'on',
lineWidth: 0,
min: 0
},
yAxis: [{
gridLineInterpolation: 'polygon',
lineWidth: 0,
min: 0,
labels: {
enabled: true
}
}, {
gridLineInterpolation: 'polygon',
lineWidth: 0,
min: 0,
labels: {
enabled: true
}
}, {
gridLineInterpolation: 'polygon',
lineWidth: 0,
min: 0,
labels: {
enabled: true
}
}],
tooltip: {
shared: true,
valuePrefix: ''
},
legend: {
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: 100,
layout: 'vertical'
},
series: [{
name: 'Austria',
yAxis: 0,
data: [0.130435, 35.043480, 29288.695312, 236960.296875],
pointPlacement: 'on'
}, {
name: 'Germany',
yAxis: 1,
data: [0.000000, 42.217392, 149103.906250, 589782.500000],
pointPlacement: 'on'
}, {
name: 'Italy',
yAxis: 2,
data: [2.304348, 44.826088, 132805.218750, 878785.937500],
pointPlacement: 'on'
}]
});
});
The output I am trying to obtain is such that for this particular chart, the labels related to the different scales appear along each axis: from the center point to A, from the center point to B, from the center point to C and from the center point to D. The problem is that right now all of the labels appear on the same axis, from the center point to A.
Thank you in advance.
Demo: http://www.highcharts.com/jsbin/eyugex/edit
You seem to assume that each of the axes extend from the center to different directions, but this is not the case. All Y axes extend from the center. The X axis starts on top of the chart and follows the perimeter clockwise around the perimeter and ends on top. The Y axis labels are drawn where the X axis starts, which is up.
In a chart like this it wouldn't make sense to add multiple Y axes because they are all drawn on top of each other and you can't visually distinguish one from another.
