Highstock yAxis missing reserveSpace option - highcharts

I'm using Highstock to do some chart rendering.
I need to use the 'reserveSpace' option for yAxis labels (I need to set the option to true).
The problem is: reserveSpace option is present in the Highcharts API (see link https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/yAxis.labels.reserveSpace), but is missing in the Highstock API (see link https://api.highcharts.com/highstock/yAxis.labels)
From Highchart site, the difference between Highcharts and Highstock is "Highstock is based on Highcharts, meaning it has all the core functionality of Highcharts, plus some additional features." (see https://www.highcharts.com/docs/chart-concepts/understanding-highstock)
So why the reserveSpace option is missing in Highstock?
Do you know if there is a way to integrate in Highstock the same reserveSpace behaviour already present in Highcharts?
Thank you

Custom charts in highchairs

I am trying to plot the chart as shown below
Not sure what to search for as this is a combination of three charts on same chart.Any starting point will help
To achieve the chart like that, you can use the Highcharts Stock with combination of three series:
line, flags and column.
Sample demo you can base on:
https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/87tbj5x2/
API Reference:
https://api.highcharts.com/highstock/series.line
https://api.highcharts.com/highstock/series.flags
https://api.highcharts.com/highstock/series.flags.shape
https://api.highcharts.com/highstock/series.column

Export with additional options Highstock

I am using Highstock 1.2.5.
These are the options I have with my chart.
I am adding colors to yAxis using axis.addPlotBand based on certain conditions.
Also, I am using axis.addPlotLine to draw line some plot values.
Both, these options are set after chart is drawn. As, I have dynamic values.
This works fine no problem. Lately, I have enabled Export options.
Now, The exported pdf is not showing above mentioned changes. How do I do that ?
Second, I have enabled Legend. Is it possible to not to include Legend while exporting chart.

Using a plot line comparator in Highcharts

I use Highchart to display an inverted graph with multiple series.
an HighStock chart should be better for what I need but I had to use it with the inverted option that is available only in HightChart.
How can I display a comparator line following my cursor on my multiple series chart ?
( like in this example from HighStock )
secondary question : why is it so many differences between highstock and highcharts ?
would be perfect to use the better of those two worlds together.
Ok I've found it.
using the tooltip shared option as:
tooltip: {
shared: true,
crosshairs: true
}
it works great on inverted charts too, the misunderstood was because this setting is enable by default in HighStock graphs.

high charts with master-detail and handles

I'm using highcharts to build a chart and I need to use the api that it exposes to do certain things. however I would like my chart to be a master-detail type chart like the one in the highstock library but which has the handles on them.
I know i can create a master-detail in highcharts but it does not seem have the handles for dragging the selected range.
In the end I used highstock and found an example with multiple series in the 'master' chart which is called 'navigator' the highstock charts.
Example:

Changing the contents of Highcharts legend

When using Highcharts, is it possible to change the contents of the legend to display something other than the series?
For example, I have a scatter chart with just one series but with many elements, so that the element labels obstruct one another and are illegible:
Would it be possible to use the legend to display the element names instead of the series? (each member in the series has a different color so that it is possible to use the legend in this case)
EDIT:
It turns out there isn't any good way to do this, so I wrote my own custom legend. You can find the code here: http://pastie.org/5115536
I hope you find it useful
Highcharts allows to show data points instead of series name in the in the legend. But, Unfortunately its only for Pie charts type:pie.
There is a default option available for the Pie Chart though undocumented in the API.
legendType: 'point',
If you try to set it for other type of chart, Legend does not gets rendered.
