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.

I work in angular project and use highchart.
The situation is:
At my chart, I have single series, type area.
I wanted the yAxis grid line to be displayed above my series, so I give it: gridZIndex: 10.
The problem is:
The yAxis is displayed also above the series markers, and I want it to appear only on the series area and line, not on markers.
Any solution?
Please the the demo that I draw:
There is no solution for this case using the regular API options because Z index in SVG is defined by the order the elements appear in the document. You can try to manipulate the DOM, however, this solution might not work well for all cases - like dynamic chart changes, so just keep in mind this is more like a POC then a solid fix.
Demo: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/8p1smf05/
chart: {
polar: true,
type: 'line',
events: {
load() {
this.seriesGroup.element.insertBefore(
this.yAxis[0].gridGroup.element,
this.series[0].markerGroup.element
)
}
}
},
API to the load event: https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/chart.events.load
I have 4 charts which contain multiple series. Is it possible to have the rangeSelector() change all charts at once?
Even more desirable would be using the sliding master detail which is enabled like so: $('#container').highcharts('StockChart', { ....
If it's possible could someone point me to references or examples
thanks in advance,
MAS
You can use afterSetExtremes() to catch event form one chart, and use setExtrmes to set range on the others charts. http://api.highcharts.com/highstock#xAxis.events.afterSetExtremes http://api.highcharts.com/highstock#Axis.setExtremes()
On hiding both the series using legends, and then clicking one of the series shows xAxis starting from '-1', when ideally it should show only not null categories.
Using 'ignoreHiddenSeries: false' solves the purpose but again on hiding both the series using legend and then enabling other series tends to overlap both the series. Although on window resize event, series get aligned properly.
chart: {
type: 'column'
// ignoreHiddenSeries: false
},
Example for reference: http://jsfiddle.net/t88rc/
You can simply set for xAxis min:0, see: http://jsfiddle.net/t88rc/2/
Grouped column charts work best with equal number of data points per series.
Best solution I have found for this is to fill any missing data points with null values:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/t88rc/1/
data: [49.9, 71.5,null,null,null,null,null,null]
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.
I need to output a plot on page, and I'm considering Highstock or Highcharts to implement this. Highstock interface is more preferable due to navigator pane showing the rest of plot after rezooming.
However my plot has numbers in x-asis, but not date/time. Is there any way to use Highstock with numerical x-scale? Or add similar navigator to Highcharts?
Below X Axis formatter can be used with high Stock for displaying numbers in X-Axis:
xAxis: {labels: { formatter: function () {return this.value;}} }
Highstock's only type of xAxis is datetime, so using it with numbers is not an option. (Maybe if you make some tricky formatting actions and define a custom tooltip with the same formatting options it might be possible).
Leaves only Highcharts and there is an example called master-detail chart that could meet your requirements.
Hope that helps.
xAxis: {
type: 'linear' // Other types are "logarithmic", "datetime" and "category"
},
