Add an axis to the chart after render time.
Add an axis to the chart after render time. Note that this method should never be used when adding data synchronously at chart render time, as it adds expense to the calculations and rendering. When adding data at the same time as the chart is initiated, add the axis as a configuration option instead.

Add a series to the chart after render time.
Add a series to the chart after render time. Note that this method should never be used when adding data synchronously at chart render time, as it adds expense to the calculations and rendering. When adding data at the same time as the chart is initiated, add the series as a configuration option instead.
The series options, as documented under plotOptions.series and under the plotOptions for each series type.

Add a series to the chart as drilldown from a specific point in the parent series.
Add a series to the chart as drilldown from a specific point in the parent series. This method is used for async drilldown, when clicking a point in a series should result in loading and displaying a more high-resolution series. When not async, the setup is simpler using the drilldown.series options structure.
The existing Point object from which the drilldown will start.

Removes the chart and purges memory.
Removes the chart and purges memory. This method should be called before writing a new chart into the same container. It is called internally on window unload to prevent leaks.

Returns an array of all currently selected points in the chart.
Returns an array of all currently selected points in the chart. Points can be selected either programmatically by the point.select()
method or by clicking.

Redraw the chart after changes have been done to the data or axis extremes.
Redraw the chart after changes have been done to the data or axis extremes. All methods for updating axes, series or points have a parameter for redrawing the chart. This is true
by default. But in many cases you want to do more than one operation on the chart before redrawing, for example add a number of points. In those cases it is a waste of resources to redraw the chart for each new point added. So you add the points and call chart.redraw()
after.
Defaults to true. When true, the update will be animated with default animation options. The animation can also be a configuration object with properties duration
and easing
.
1.2.0
Reflows the chart to its container.
Reflows the chart to its container. By default, the chart reflows automatically to its container following a window.resize
event, as per the chart.reflow option. However, there are no reliable events for div resize, so if the container is resized without a window resize event, this must be called explicitly.
An array of all the chart's series.
