    • Method Detail

      • setAllowPointSelect

        public void setAllowPointSelect​(Boolean allowPointSelect)
        Allow this series' points to be selected by clicking on the markers, bars or pie slices.

        Defaults to: false

        Specified by:
        setAllowPointSelect in class PointOptions
      • setAnimation

        public void setAnimation​(Boolean animation)
        Enable or disable the initial animation when a series is displayed. Please note that this option only applies to the initial animation of the series itself. For other animations, see ChartModel.setAnimation(Boolean)
        Specified by:
        setAnimation in class PointOptions
      • setAnimationLimit

        public void setAnimationLimit​(Number animationLimit)
        For some series, there is a limit that shuts down initial animation by default when the total number of points in the chart is too high. For example, for a column chart and its derivatives, animation doesn't run if there is more than 250 points totally. To disable this cap, set animationLimit to Infinity.
        Specified by:
        setAnimationLimit in class PointOptions
      • setClassName

        public void setClassName​(String className)
        A class name to apply to the series' graphical elements.
        Specified by:
        setClassName in class PointOptions
      • setClip

        public void setClip​(Boolean clip)
        Disable this option to allow series rendering in the whole plotting area. Note that lipping should be always enabled when chart.zoomType is set

        Defaults to true.

        Specified by:
        setClip in class PointOptions
      • setColor

        public void setColor​(Color color)

        The main color or the series. In line type series it applies to the line and the point markers unless otherwise specified. In bar type series it applies to the bars unless a color is specified per point. The default value is pulled from the options.colors array.

        In styled mode, the color can be defined by the colorIndex option. Also, the series color can be set with the .highcharts-series, .highcharts-color-{n}, .highcharts-{type}-series or .highcharts-series-{n} class, or individual classes given by the className option.

        Specified by:
        setColor in class PointOptions
      • setColorIndex

        public void setColorIndex​(Number colorIndex)
        Styled mode only. A specific color index to use for the series, so its graphic representations are given the class name highcharts-color-{n}.
        Specified by:
        setColorIndex in class PointOptions
      • setColorKey

        public void setColorKey​(String colorKey)
        Determines what data value should be used to calculate point color if colorAxis is used. Requires to set min and max if some custom point property is used or if approximation for data grouping is set to 'sum'.

        Defaults to y.

        Specified by:
        setColorKey in class PointOptions
        Parameters:
        colorKey -
      • setCrisp

        public void setCrisp​(Boolean crisp)
        When true, each point or column edge is rounded to its nearest pixel in order to render sharp on screen. In some cases, when there are a lot of densely packed columns, this leads to visible difference in column widths or distance between columns. In these cases, setting crisp to false may look better, even though each column is rendered blurry.

        Defaults to true.

        Specified by:
        setCrisp in class PointOptions
      • setCropThreshold

        public void setCropThreshold​(Number cropThreshold)
        When the series contains less points than the crop threshold, all points are drawn, even if the points fall outside the visible plot area at the current zoom. The advantage of drawing all points (including markers and columns), is that animation is performed on updates. On the other hand, when the series contains more points than the crop threshold, the series data is cropped to only contain points that fall within the plot area. The advantage of cropping away invisible points is to increase performance on large series.

        Defaults to: 300

        Specified by:
        setCropThreshold in class PointOptions
      • setCursor

        public void setCursor​(Cursor cursor)
        You can set the cursor to "pointer" if you have click events attached to the series, to signal to the user that the points and lines can be clicked.
        Specified by:
        setCursor in class PointOptions
      • setDashStyle

        public void setDashStyle​(DashStyle dashStyle)
        A name for the dash style to use for the graph. Applies only to series type having a graph, like line, spline, area and scatter in case it has a lineWidth. The value for the dashStyle include:
        • Solid
        • ShortDash
        • ShortDot
        • ShortDashDot
        • ShortDashDotDot
        • Dot
        • Dash
        • LongDash
        • DashDot
        • LongDashDot
        • LongDashDotDot

        Defaults to: Solid

        Specified by:
        setDashStyle in class PointOptions
      • setDataLabels

        public void setDataLabels​(DataLabels dataLabels)

        Options for the series data labels, appearing next to each data point.

        In styled mode, the data labels can be styled wtih the .highcharts-data-label-box and .highcharts-data-label class names (see example).

        Specified by:
        setDataLabels in class PointOptions
      • setDescription

        public void setDescription​(String description)

        Requires Accessibility module

        A description of the series to add to the screen reader information about the series.

        Defaults to: undefined

        Specified by:
        setDescription in class PointOptions
      • setEnableMouseTracking

        public void setEnableMouseTracking​(Boolean enableMouseTracking)
        Enable or disable the mouse tracking for a specific series. This includes point tooltips and click events on graphs and points. For large datasets it improves performance.

        Defaults to: true

        Specified by:
        setEnableMouseTracking in class PointOptions
      • setExposeElementToA11y

        public void setExposeElementToA11y​(Boolean exposeElementToA11y)

        By default, series are exposed to screen readers as regions. By enabling this option, the series element itself will be exposed in the same way as the data points. This is useful if the series is not used as a grouping entity in the chart, but you still want to attach a description to the series.

        Requires the Accessibility module.

        Defaults to: undefined

        Specified by:
        setExposeElementToA11y in class PointOptions
      • setFindNearestPointBy

        public void setFindNearestPointBy​(Dimension findNearestPointBy)

        Determines whether the series should look for the nearest point in both dimensions or just the x-dimension when hovering the series. Defaults to 'xy' for scatter series and 'x' for most other series. If the data has duplicate x-values, it is recommended to set this to 'xy' to allow hovering over all points.

        Applies only to series types using nearest neighbor search (not direct hover) for tooltip.

        Specified by:
        setFindNearestPointBy in class PointOptions
      • setGetExtremesFromAll

        public void setGetExtremesFromAll​(Boolean getExtremesFromAll)
        Whether to use the Y extremes of the total chart width or only the zoomed area when zooming in on parts of the X axis. By default, the Y axis adjusts to the min and max of the visible data. Cartesian series only.

        Defaults to: false

        Specified by:
        setGetExtremesFromAll in class PointOptions
      • setKeys

        public void setKeys​(String... keys)
        An array specifying which option maps to which key in the data point array. This makes it convenient to work with unstructured data arrays from different sources.
        Specified by:
        setKeys in class PointOptions
      • setLineWidth

        public void setLineWidth​(Number lineWidth)
        The width of the line connecting the data points.

        Defaults to: 0

        Specified by:
        setLineWidth in class PointOptions
      • setLinkedTo

        public void setLinkedTo​(String linkedTo)
        The id of another series to link to. Additionally, the value can be ":previous" to link to the previous series. When two series are linked, only the first one appears in the legend. Toggling the visibility of this also toggles the linked series.
        Specified by:
        setLinkedTo in class PointOptions
      • setMarker

        public void setMarker​(Marker marker)

        Options for the point markers of line-like series. Properties like fillColor, lineColor and lineWidth define the visual appearance of the markers. Other series types, like column series, don't have markers, but have visual options on the series level instead.

        In styled mode, the markers can be styled with the .highcharts-point, .highcharts-point-hover and .highcharts-point-select class names.

        Specified by:
        setMarker in class PointOptions
      • setNegativeColor

        public void setNegativeColor​(Color negativeColor)
        The color for the parts of the graph or points that are below the threshold.

        Defaults to: null

        Specified by:
        setNegativeColor in class PointOptions
      • setOpacity

        public void setOpacity​(Number opacity)
        Opacity of a series parts: line, fill (e.g. area) and dataLabels.

        Specified by:
        setOpacity in class PointOptions
      • setPointInterval

        public void setPointInterval​(Number pointInterval)

        If no x values are given for the points in a series, pointInterval defines the interval of the x values. For example, if a series contains one value every decade starting from year 0, set pointInterval to 10.

        Since Highcharts 4.1, it can be combined with pointIntervalUnit to draw irregular intervals.

        Defaults to: 1

        Specified by:
        setPointInterval in class PointOptions
      • setPointIntervalUnit

        public void setPointIntervalUnit​(IntervalUnit pointIntervalUnit)
        On datetime series, this allows for setting the pointInterval to irregular time units, day, month and year. A day is usually the same as 24 hours, but pointIntervalUnit also takes the DST crossover into consideration when dealing with local time. Combine this option with pointInterval to draw weeks, quarters, 6 months, 10 years etc.
        Specified by:
        setPointIntervalUnit in class PointOptions
      • setPointStart

        public void setPointStart​(Number pointStart)
        If no x values are given for the points in a series, pointStart defines on what value to start. For example, if a series contains one yearly value starting from 1945, set pointStart to 1945.

        Defaults to: 0

        Specified by:
        setPointStart in class PointOptions
      • setSelected

        public void setSelected​(Boolean selected)
        Whether to select the series initially. If showCheckbox is true, the checkbox next to the series name will be checked for a selected series.

        Defaults to: false

        Specified by:
        setSelected in class PointOptions
      • setShadow

        public void setShadow​(Boolean shadow)
        Whether to apply a drop shadow to the graph line. Since 2.3 the shadow can be an object configuration containing color, offsetX, offsetY, opacity and width.

        Defaults to: false

        Specified by:
        setShadow in class PointOptions
      • setShowCheckbox

        public void setShowCheckbox​(Boolean showCheckbox)
        If true, a checkbox is displayed next to the legend item to allow selecting the series. The state of the checkbox is determined by the selected option.

        Defaults to: false

        Specified by:
        setShowCheckbox in class PointOptions
      • setShowInLegend

        public void setShowInLegend​(Boolean showInLegend)
        Whether to display this particular series or series type in the legend. The default value is true for standalone series, false for linked series.

        Defaults to: true

        Specified by:
        setShowInLegend in class PointOptions
      • setSkipKeyboardNavigation

        public void setSkipKeyboardNavigation​(Boolean skipKeyboardNavigation)
        If set to True, the accessibility module will skip past the points in this series for keyboard navigation.
        Specified by:
        setSkipKeyboardNavigation in class PointOptions
      • setSoftThreshold

        public void setSoftThreshold​(Boolean softThreshold)

        When this is true, the series will not cause the Y axis to cross the zero plane (or threshold option) unless the data actually crosses the plane.

        For example, if softThreshold is false, a series of 0, 1, 2, 3 will make the Y axis show negative values according to the minPadding option. If softThreshold is true, the Y axis starts at 0.

        Defaults to: true

        Specified by:
        setSoftThreshold in class PointOptions
      • setStates

        public void setStates​(States states)
        A wrapper object for all the series options in specific states.
        Specified by:
        setStates in class PointOptions
      • setStickyTracking

        public void setStickyTracking​(Boolean stickyTracking)
        Sticky tracking of mouse events. When true, the mouseOut event on a series isn't triggered until the mouse moves over another series, or out of the plot area. When false, the mouseOut event on a series is triggered when the mouse leaves the area around the series' graph or markers. This also implies the tooltip. When stickyTracking is false and tooltip.shared is false, the tooltip will be hidden when moving the mouse between series.

        Defaults to: false

        Specified by:
        setStickyTracking in class PointOptions
      • setThreshold

        public void setThreshold​(Number threshold)
        The threshold, also called zero level or base level. For line type series this is only used in conjunction with negativeColor.

        Defaults to: 0

        Specified by:
        setThreshold in class PointOptions
      • setTooltip

        public void setTooltip​(SeriesTooltip tooltip)
        A configuration object for the tooltip rendering of each single series. Properties are inherited from tooltip, but only the following properties can be defined on a series level.
        Specified by:
        setTooltip in class PointOptions
      • setTurboThreshold

        public void setTurboThreshold​(Number turboThreshold)
        When a series contains a data array that is longer than this, only one dimensional arrays of numbers, or two dimensional arrays with x and y values are allowed. Also, only the first point is tested, and the rest are assumed to be the same format. This saves expensive data checking and indexing in long series. Set it to 0 disable.

        Defaults to: 1000

        Specified by:
        setTurboThreshold in class PointOptions
      • setVisible

        public void setVisible​(Boolean visible)
        Set the initial visibility of the series.

        Defaults to: true

        Specified by:
        setVisible in class PointOptions
      • setZoneAxis

        public void setZoneAxis​(ZoneAxis zoneAxis)
        Defines the Axis on which the zones are applied.

        Defaults to: y

        Specified by:
        setZoneAxis in class PointOptions
      • setZones

        public void setZones​(Zones... zones)

        An array defining zones within a series. Zones can be applied to the X axis, Y axis or Z axis for bubbles, according to the zoneAxis option.

        In styled mode, the color zones are styled with the .highcharts-zone-{n} class, or custom classed from the className option (view live demo).

        Specified by:
        setZones in class PointOptions
      • setCompare

        public void setCompare​(Compare compare)
        Compare the values of the series against the first non-null, non-zero value in the visible range. The y axis will show percentage or absolute change depending on whether compare is set to "percent" or "value". When this is applied to multiple series, it allows comparing the development of the series against each other.

        Defaults to: undefined

        Specified by:
        setCompare in class PointOptions
      • setCompareBase

        public void setCompareBase​(Number compareBase)
        When compare is percent, this option dictates whether to use 0 or 100 as the base of comparison.

        Defaults to: 0

        Specified by:
        setCompareBase in class PointOptions
      • setDataGrouping

        public void setDataGrouping​(DataGrouping dataGrouping)

        Data grouping is the concept of sampling the data values into larger blocks in order to ease readability and increase performance of the JavaScript charts. Highstock by default applies data grouping when the points become closer than a certain pixel value, determined by the groupPixelWidth option.

        If data grouping is applied, the grouping information of grouped points can be read from the Point.dataGroup.

        Specified by:
        setDataGrouping in class PointOptions
      • setGapUnit

        public void setGapUnit​(String gapUnit)
        Together with gapSize, this option defines where to draw gaps in the graph.

        Defaults to: relative

        Specified by:
        setGapUnit in class PointOptions
      • setLegendIndex

        public void setLegendIndex​(Number legendIndex)
        The sequential index of the series within the legend.

        Defaults to: 0

        Specified by:
        setLegendIndex in class PointOptions
      • setNavigatorOptions

        public void setNavigatorOptions​(PlotOptionsSeries navigatorOptions)

        Options for the corresponding navigator series if showInNavigator is true for this series. Available options are the same as any series, documented at plotOptions and series.

        These options are merged with options in navigator.series, and will take precedence if the same option is defined both places.

        Defaults to: undefined

        Specified by:
        setNavigatorOptions in class PointOptions
      • setPointPlacement

        public void setPointPlacement​(PointPlacement pointPlacement)

        Possible values: null, "on", "between".

        In a column chart, when pointPlacement is "on", the point will not create any padding of the X axis. In a polar column chart this means that the first column points directly north. If the pointPlacement is "between", the columns will be laid out between ticks. This is useful for example for visualising an amount between two points in time or in a certain sector of a polar chart.

        Since Highcharts 3.0.2, the point placement can also be numeric, where 0 is on the axis value, -0.5 is between this value and the previous, and 0.5 is between this value and the next. Unlike the textual options, numeric point placement options won't affect axis padding.

        Note that pointPlacement needs a pointRange to work. For column series this is computed, but for line-type series it needs to be set.

        Defaults to null in cartesian charts, "between" in polar charts.

        Defaults to: null

        Specified by:
        setPointPlacement in class PointOptions
      • setPointRange

        public void setPointRange​(Number pointRange)
        The width of each point on the x axis. For example in a column chart with one value each day, the pointRange would be 1 day (= 24 * 3600 * 1000 milliseconds). This is normally computed automatically, but this option can be used to override the automatic value.

        Defaults to: 0

        Specified by:
        setPointRange in class PointOptions
      • setStacking

        public void setStacking​(Stacking stacking)
        Whether to stack the values of each series on top of each other. Possible values are null to disable, "normal" to stack by value or "percent". When stacking is enabled, data must be sorted in ascending X order.

        Defaults to: null

        Specified by:
        setStacking in class PointOptions
