  • Method Details

    • getAlignTicks

      public Boolean getAlignTicks()
      See Also:
    • setAlignTicks

      public void setAlignTicks(Boolean alignTicks)

      When using multiple axis, the ticks of two or more opposite axes will automatically be aligned by adding ticks to the axis or axes with the least ticks, as if tickAmount were specified.

      This can be prevented by setting alignTicks to false. If the grid lines look messy, it's a good idea to hide them for the secondary axis by setting gridLineWidth to 0.

      Defaults to: true

    • getAnimation

      public Boolean getAnimation()
      See Also:
    • setAnimation

      public void setAnimation(Boolean animation)

      Set the overall animation for all chart updating. Animation can be disabled throughout the chart by setting it to false here. It can be overridden for each individual API method as a function parameter. The only animation not affected by this option is the initial series animation, see plotOptions.series.animation.

      The animation can either be set as a boolean or a configuration object. If true, it will use the 'swing' jQuery easing and a duration of 500 ms. If used as a configuration object, the following properties are supported:

      duration
      The duration of the animation in milliseconds.
      easing
      A string reference to an easing function set on the Math object. See the easing demo.

      Defaults to: true

      See Also:

      The background color or gradient for the outer chart area.

      Defaults to: #FFFFFF

    • getBorderColor

      public Color getBorderColor()
      See Also:
    • setBorderColor

      The color of the outer chart border.

      Defaults to: #335cad

    • getBorderRadius

      public Number getBorderRadius()
      See Also:
    • setBorderRadius

      public void setBorderRadius(Number borderRadius)
      The corner radius of the outer chart border.

      Defaults to: 0

    • getBorderWidth

    • getColorCount

      public Number getColorCount()
      See Also:
    • setColorCount

      public void setColorCount(Number colorCount)
      In styled mode, this sets how many colors the class names should rotate between. With ten colors, series (or points) are given class names like highcharts-color-0, highcharts-color-0 [...] highcharts-color-9. The equivalent in non-styled mode is to set colors using the colors setting.

      Defaults to: 10

    • getDescription

      public String getDescription()
      See Also:
    • setDescription

      public void setDescription(String description)

      A text description of the chart.

      If the Accessibility module is loaded, this is included by default as a long description of the chart and its contents in the hidden screen reader information region.

      Defaults to: undefined

    • getHeight

      public String getHeight()
      See Also:
    • setHeight

      public void setHeight(String height)

      An explicit height for the chart. If a number, the height is given in pixels. If given a percentage string (for example '56%'), the height is given as the percentage of the actual chart width. This allows for preserving the aspect ratio across responsive sizes.

      By default (when null) the height is calculated from the offset height of the containing element, or 400 pixels if the containing element's height is 0.

      Defaults to: null

    • getIgnoreHiddenSeries

      public Boolean getIgnoreHiddenSeries()
      See Also:
    • setIgnoreHiddenSeries

      public void setIgnoreHiddenSeries(Boolean ignoreHiddenSeries)
      If true, the axes will scale to the remaining visible series once one series is hidden. If false, hiding and showing a series will not affect the axes or the other series. For stacks, once one series within the stack is hidden, the rest of the stack will close in around it even if the axis is not affected.

      Defaults to: true

    • getInverted

      public Boolean getInverted()
      See Also:
    • setInverted

      public void setInverted(Boolean inverted)

      Whether to invert the axes so that the x axis is vertical and y axis is horizontal. When true, the x axis is reversed by default. If a bar series is present in the chart, it will be inverted automatically.

      Inverting the chart doesn't have an effect if there are no cartesian series in the chart, or if the chart is polar.

      Defaults to: false
