I am using a single xAxis category and 4 discrete data series (each one containing a single data item). Unfortunately, when I try to construct a simple ColumnChart using Highcharts 3.0 beta, the chart is never displayed:
chartB = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'containerB',
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: 'Monthly Average Rainfall'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Source: WorldClimate.com'
},
xAxis: {
categories: [
'Jan' //Just one category
]
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Rainfall (mm)'
}
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return ''+
this.x +': '+ this.y +' mm';
}
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
pointPadding: 0.2,
borderWidth: 0
}
},
series: [{
name: 'Tokyo',
data: [49.9] //One data point for each series element.
}, {
name: 'New York',
data: [83.6]
}, {
name: 'London',
data: [48.9]
}, {
name: 'Berlin',
data: [42.4]
}]
});
Please see http://jsfiddle.net/7CJhf/5/.
A workaround is to append an empty category ('') and a zero value to each series item, but this moves the column set to the left. Is there any proper workaround to create a column chart with Highcharts 3.0 beta, using single data points?
I've encountered this issue before issue 1535 with a stacked column of length 1. This is fixed in the lastest master branch highchart.src.js and highcharts-more.src.js. Try updating the script-references to the raw github references here, and it should work ok.

I'm having a problem with Highcharts drawing points that have no data attached to them. The chart is a column chart with drilldown, showing an average "time" per week on the top level, with a drilldown displaying the actual value per case for the selected week.
My problem is this: When I drill down into a certain week, cases that do not exist are still displayed on the chart if they exist between two existing case IDs.e.
Consider the data being passed for week 6: [[272, 25.07][297, 500.54]], only two cases exist: 272 and 297. However, Highcharts is giving me this:
https://i.stack.imgur.com/MpABB.png
This is the code for the chart itself:
Highcharts.chart('DrilldownChart', {
chart: {
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: ''
},
subtitle: {
text: ''
},
xAxis: {
type: "",
labels: {
rotation: 90
},
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: ''
}
},
exporting: {
enabled: false
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
minPointLength: 0
},
series: {
borderWidth: 0,
dataLabels: {
enabled: false,
format: '{point.y:.1f}',
rotation: 270
}
}
},
tooltip: {
pointFormat: '<span style="color:{#000}"></span>{point.y:.2f}<br/>'
},
series: MainDataArray,
drilldown: {
series: DrilldownDataArray,
}
});
Does anyone know how to stop it from drawing the labels/columns between points with actual data?
Thanks!
You just need to convert the x values from your array to String type, then they would be treated as a category name instead of category indexes. In order to convert it, you can use Array.map() function just like that:
var drilldownSeries = [{
id: 'One',
data: [[272, 25.07], [297, 500.54]].map(elem => {
return [elem[0].toString(), elem[1]]
})
}]
However, before that please make sure that your xAxis.type is set to 'category', because I noticed that in your code there is an empty string assigned to type field.
Here is the example which shows how to achieve described effect:
https://jsfiddle.net/8h03urrr/
Hello I am currently facing a problem with the tooltip on my chart which adds data dynamically through the use of Series.SetData() function of highcharts.
The issue however is not related to the data which is added I think but with the tooltip everytime I mouse over a point in the graph.
To better understand I will post two screenshots with the issue:
Whenever I mouse over a certain point in the graph the tooltip keeps changing and the values presented are the ones posted in the screenshots. If I drag the mouse away the tooltip that remains on the screen is the second one and I am no longer able to see the Y1 value.
I probably have some bad chart configuration so here is the code of my graph:
$(function () {
// Create the chart for node 1
$('#container').highcharts('StockChart', {
chart: {
zoomType: 'x',
events: {
load: requestDataNode1
},
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
title: {
text: 'Live Data'
},
rangeSelector: {
buttons: [{
count: 1,
type: 'minute',
text: '1M'
}, {
count: 5,
type: 'minute',
text: '5M'
}, {
type: 'all',
text: 'All'
}],
inputEnabled: false,
selected: 0
},
yAxis: {
labels: {
formatter: function () {
//return (this.value > 0 ? ' + ' : '') + this.value + '%';
return this.value;
}
},
plotLines: [{
value: 0,
width: 2,
color: 'silver'
}]
},
legend:{ enabled: true},
plotOptions: {
series: {
showInNavigator: true
},
spline: {
turboThreshold: 0,
dataLabels: {
enabled: false
},
enableMouseTracking: true
}
},
tooltip: {
pointFormat: '<span style="color:{series.color}">{series.name}</span>: <b>{point.y}</b><br/>',
valueDecimals: 2,
split: false
},
navigator: {
series: {
data: []
}
},
});
});
I do not know why this happens , at first I thought it could be related with not having a value for a series for a specific date but then I checked my series as you can see in the screenshots and there is indeed a value for both series.
I thank in advance for your help.
I somehow resolved this issue by adding the shared property in the tooltip property and setting to false, however now I only receive a single value.
Is it possible to keep seeing all values?
UPDATE AGAIN - Now I added yAxis property but it's showing nothing:
$('#highchart').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'line'
},
title: {
text: 'My Data'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'By Day'
},
xAxis: {
categories: date_arr
},
yAxis: [{title: {text: 'PV'}},
{title: {text: 'UPV'}},
{title: {text: 'PPV'},opposite: true}
],
plotOptions: {
line: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: false
},
enableMouseTracking: true
}
},
series: [{
name: 'PV',
data: pv_arr,
yAxis:1
},
{
name:'UPV',
data:upv_arr,
yAxis:2
},
{
name:'PPV',
data:ppv_arr,
yAxis:3
}
]
});
It will show nothing - literally nothing, not even the title of the chart. But a blank area.
UPDATE - Now I am using this but still not working...
$('#highchart').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'line'
},
title: {
text: 'My Data'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'By Day'
},
xAxis: {
categories: date_arr
},
yAxis: [{title: {text: 'PV'}},
{title: {text: 'UPV'}},
{title: {text: 'PPV'},opposite: true}
],
plotOptions: {
line: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: false
},
enableMouseTracking: true
}
},
series: [{
name: 'PV',
data: pv_arr
},
{
name:'UPV',
data:upv_arr
},
{
name:'PPV',
data:ppv_arr
}
]
});
It's like this (the new labels are ready but the metric is still in the old way):
-- original post --
I am using HighCharts to show some data for a website visitors
In this picture above. the Blue and Dark Blue lines are very big because they are page visits. And the Green one is the Page Views/Unique Page Views. That is a very small number comparing to the visit number. How can I set up a second y-axis system as Microsoft Excel can do?
BTW, the dates on the x-axis is too crowded, is there anyway to make them stay in one line automatically? (sometimes there are only 7 days data)
Thanks
You can define array of yAxis and then set index of axis in each serie.
yAxis: [{
title: {
text: 'yAxis 1',
},
}, {
title: {
text: 'yAxis 2',
},
opposite: true
}],
Example:
- http://www.highcharts.com/demo/combo-multi-axes
You can also disable align ticks by option alignTicks.
chart: {
alignTicks: false
},
refer this Fiddle ,It has three yAxis to show three stacked series
for label relted issues ,you can use tickInterval to show date after an interval
xAxis: {
tickInterval: 24 * 3600 * 1000// One day (change here whatever you prefer)
}
If your labels collapsed with each other you can use staggerLines property in xAxis to show alternate label one step down.

Is there a way to fill in the gap between the y-axis and the first point. The first point on my chart should be "25 years" and i would like the area between 0 and 25 to be filled in as well. Even if the tooltip doesn't work for that point, I would just like to visually show that the values between 0 and the first point.
I tried adding a point with a x value of zero but that didnt work. The only area charts I have seen where there is no gap between the two axis and the area are examples where the chart is inverted. Is there a proper way to do this?
Current Code:
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'areaspline'
},
title: {
text: 'Monthly Comparison'
},
subtitle: {
text: '1 vs 2'
},
xAxis: {
min: 0,
categories: [0, '25 years', '30 years', '35 years', '40 years', '45 years']
},
yAxis: {
labels: {
formatter: function() {
return '$' + this.value;
}
},
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Cost'
}
},
tooltip: {
shared: true,
valuePrefix: '$'
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
plotOptions: {
area: {
lineWidth: 1,
marker: {
enabled: false
},
shadow: false,
states: {
hover: {
lineWidth: 1
}
}
}
},
series: [{
type: 'area',
name: 'series1',
data: [['',60],['25 years',60], ['30 years',60], ['35 years',60], ['40 years',60], ['45 years',60]]
}, {
type: 'area',
name: 'series2',
data: [['',90], ['25 years',100], ['30 years',175], ['35 years',300], ['40 years',400], ['45 years',400]]
}]
});
});
You should set minPadding/maxPadding as 0, but these parameters doesn't work with categories. So you need to use numeric xAxis, instead of categories.
I have a chart that looks like this:
http://jsfiddle.net/rtGFm/37/
I would like to have a "sort" button that sorts high to low each category, putting the columns in a different order for each category. Is this possible with HighCharts?
var chart;
$(document).ready(function() {
chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: ''
},
subtitle: {
text: ''
},
xAxis: {
categories: [
'foreclosures',
'nuisances',
'distance from city center'
]
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: ''
}
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return ''+
this.x +': '+ this.y +' mm';
}
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
pointPadding: 0.2,
borderWidth: 0
}
},
series: [{
name: 'Alger Heights',
data: [49.9, 71.5, 50]
}, {
name: 'Shawmut Hills',
data: [83.6, 78.8, 67]
}, {
name: 'Baxter',
data: [48.9, 38.8, 100]
}, {
name: 'Midtown',
data: [42.4, 33.2, 80]
}, {
type: 'scatter',
data: [55,60,70],
marker: {
symbol: 'square',
lineColor: '#FFFFFF',
lineWidth: 1,
radius: 8
},
name: 'Average'
}]
});
});
I had the same problem :) highcharts still does not provide any solution for this problem, but it is flexibel enough so that you can sort anyway - just by javascript.
Put your data in a separate value:
var dataMain = [{name:"test1",data:5}, {name:"test1",data:1},{name:"test1",data:2}]
In series you can just add a function which sorts your data:
series: (function(){
for(var i = 0;i<dataMain.length;i++){
dataMain[i].data = dataMain[i].data.sort(function(a,b){
return a[0] - b[0] ;
})
return dataMain;
}
Hope I got everything wright.
Got it to work, I believe. Trick is to add each column in correct order as a new serie with same type (column), reuse colors and hide legend...
Very hackish, the JS code to sort like 8 categories independently will be ugly but the result looks fine.
Edit: Updated fiddle, I see the spacing between the categories grows with series, doesn't look supernice.
My jsfiddle is here
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
inverted: true
},
title: {
text: 'Series sorted in within categories'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['January']
},
series: [{
type: 'column',
name: 'Stockholm',
data: [{x:0, y:95, color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]}]
}, {
type: 'column',
name: 'Göteborg',
data: [{x:0, y:80, color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[1]}]
}, {
type: 'column',
name: 'Göteborg',
data: [{x: 1, name: 'February', y: 98, color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[1] // VGR's color
}],
showInLegend: false,
dataLabels: {
enabled: false
}
}, {
type: 'column',
name: 'Stockholm',
data: [{x: 1, name: 'February', y: 80, color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0] // VGR's color
}],
showInLegend: false,
dataLabels: {
enabled: false
}
}]
});
});

I think this can be done,
this may look like a little work around.
since we have a limited number of columns i mean 4 in the given example.
if we have arrays with sorting done with respect to each series then we can handle them.
on button click we can update the chart with new set of data as well as category array.
May be there is no solution from the APi.
According to me this is a possible approach.
Thanks,
