I need to show highchart markers only on hover state and in the legend at all times. I don't want it to show on normal state in the chart. I searched for this and found this post which did not work for me
Series markers disable on lines and enable on legend in Highchart
You can reset drawPoints function.
Highcharts.Series.prototype.drawPoints = function() { };

I am working with a PieChart and have to render the legend separately and cannot use the normal PieChart legend. My legend is missing the mouseover and onclick functionality. Is there a way to call these functions from my custom legend?
I have 1 chart with 2 scatterplot series like so
The series have same data points, basically I am drawing 2-2D plots instead of 1-3D plot..
Series 1 has the legend while on 2 its disabled. When I hover my cursor over the legend I want the tooltip to show up in both the chart, so a user can correlate legend to points on scatter plots.
$('.highcharts-legend text, .highcharts-legend span').each(function (index, element) {
$(element).hover(function () {
chart.tooltip.refresh([chart.series[index].data[0], chart.series[index+data.length].data[0]]);
}, function () {
chart.tooltip.hide();
})
});
I use above code to create desired effect, but tooltip is not appearing at the right place. maybe its a limitation from highchart. It throws the following JS error
Could someone please suggest me a workaround?
If you could make the chart.tooltip.refresh to function properly that would be the best. Other wise I am willing to make a compromise with at-least having the points in both series in hovered state and 1 of them showing the tooltip.
here is a fiddle to see the problem in action https://jsfiddle.net/9eoyg283/1/ , Hover over the legend items and you would get JS error in the console.
I can create the desired effect if I create 2 charts instead of using 2 series, but then that complicates other things which are not desirable. So this solution is off
Thanks in advance
I am trying to use line chart, where I am using data with line series.
For that purpose I am using the legend. When clicked the legend, the following value will be hidden, and when I click the last one it also gets hidden, in my scenario last value should not get hidden so that at least one should be active.
I have done this in pie chart series but I can't implement this in line chart why?

- [Js Fiddle Line Chart][2]
var points = this.chart.series

I want to draw bar to pie chart with Highcharts like this
is it possible !?
I have a chart that has a custom legend i.e. it isn't part of Highcharts at all, it's completely my own code, the Highcharts legend is disabled for this chart.
Is it possible to turn series data AND plot bands on/off in a Highcharts chart using the API?
I found an example that triggered the click event of a legend item to do this, but this obviously relies on a legend being present, so this is no use to me: http://birdchan.com/home/2013/01/23/trigger-a-click-event-on-a-legend-item-in-highchart/
I also tried to set the series data .visible property to false and then redraw the chart and although it sets the visible property just fine, it doesn't redraw the chart so nothing changes:
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart(myoptions);
$("#custom_legend_link").click(function (e) {
chart.series[0].visible = !chart.series[0].visible;
chart.redraw();
}
Here is a jsFiddle using the basic line demo showing my problem:

Thanks,

To toggle the series, use Series.setVisible(). When called without parameters, it toggles.
Plot bands are a bit different, since they don't have methods like hide(), show() or setVisible. To toggle a plot band, you need to remove it by Axis.removePlotBand() and add a new one with the same options by Axis.addPlotBand().
