I would like to fill the area between two serieses (when serieses cross each other). See below. I tried the 'arearange' chart type but it filled most of the chart with solid colors. I saw a similar question but I wanted to know if Highcharts supports what I want or I have to use the solution posted in that question.
Chart now:
What I want:
type:'arearange'
You need to use three series, first / second as lines, third as arearange with defined values.

I need to remove color as this image is seems

I have two different series.
I do not want to use area-stacked and arearange because that two different series is dynamic.
I had try by this http://jsfiddle.net/erzLp3n9/3/ but not working
By using negativeFillColor you can color the area if it is negative, which seems to be the problem with your second example.
See this fiddle.
Where I set plotOptions.area.negativeFillColor.
If you are wondering why they don't look like the same color, it is because the top one is 75% opacity, see Highcharts API.
Could you explain exactly why you do not want to use stacking? This option along with setting color of the second series to transparent gives desired effect.

I'm looking for a way to indicate key dates on a highchart with a label eg Public Holiday. I can't find a way to add labeled guidelines or add an opened callout to a point? Help appreciated.
In Highstock you have series type called flags which is a opened callout (similar to Dygraphs annotation). This is probably the closest fit to the indicators you referred. See this JSFiddle example of how it looks. Note how this example uses the Highstock source file, but builds a Highcharts chart. See this documentation for official information.
In Highcharts you can highlight points, labels and value in a wide variety of ways. First of you can add data labels to your points, which renders text next to it. Secondly you can use plot lines to highlight certain values along an axis. See this JSFiddle example of how both of these options can be used.
Of course there are lots of ways to improve and build upon this out of the box functionality, but that is up to your specific demands and desires.
I have a situation where I need to remove all margins from a highchart and remove the x/y axis so it fills a series of columns in a table completely.
I did that, no problem. Chart goes to the extremes as needed.
What I need now is that pesky yaxis I already removed...but displayed in a table cell outside of the existing highcharts object.
It would seem easy, as though I could just set the overflow property of yaxis to 'visible' and play with the offset...which would work however this would only work if I wanted to re-position the axis within the boundaries of the highchart object. I want him in a different cell entirely.
Is there anyone who has had experience in this situation? Is it going to require me to have a secondary highchart with only a y-axis?
Best answer gets a green check.
EDIT :: I now have dispersed each 'day' into their own column (more bars coming per day [scheduled,actual,etc...]). In order to keep the scales lined up, I manipulate the yAxis:max property and set them all to a derived value.
In the open column (currently w/ text Hourly Trends) is where I would put an additional highchart module with no series data but with the same min/max/tickInterval.
The next big leap will be to see the data is alive and changes w/ schedule. May have to start another thread for that one, no?
Create a new HC object with no data but only the yAxis (making sure it is the right scale, etc). Perhaps add the same series of data to it but hide the series? Add it to the location you want. This seems kludge and not very good practice. Each business use is different but why would you want this?
EDIT based on comment of business rules:
Why not come at this from a different direction and have the individual chart elements (the bars/points/etc) be a single point chart. This way you have one chart per column. You can then set up the yAxis to be text and not worry about the position. If we could see an example of the page layout and the desired result that would help.
I want to make a multiple plots with the x-axis aligned so that we can compare two set of data. I want it to look like this
https://stackoverflow.com/a/11796553/229075
In my case there are some addition requirement that some of the plot are lines and some are bar. So the default scale does not align even if the data range are the same.
I found some good suggestion about "stacking" the charts. It is a little bit complicated but a promising way to try.
https://stackoverflow.com/a/12179023/229075
However I also have other use case that may push the envelop of simple stacking. For example, I'd like to do scatter plot matrix sometime when both x-axis and y-axis have to align like this

Rather than putting many chart in one Highchart, this may requires have many separate charts but have better control in how the axis is layout.
If you want to use one one chart, you can use linkedTo option to connect axis.
If you want more simple charts, you can manage to connect axis using event afterSetExtremes, where you can call setExtremes() for another chart.
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.
