-
getAnimationLimit
- See Also:
-
setAnimationLimit
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.

A class name to apply to the series' graphical elements. -
getClip
- See Also:

setClip
Disable this option to allow series rendering in the whole plotting area. Note that clipping should be always enabled when chart.zoomType is set.Defaults to
true. -
getColor
- See Also:
-
setColor
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.colorsarray.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}-seriesor.highcharts-series-{n}class, or individual classes given by theclassNameoption. -
getColorByPoint
- See Also:
-
setColorByPoint
When using automatic point colors pulled from theoptions.colorscollection, this option determines whether the chart should receive one color per series or one color per point.Defaults to: false
-
getColorIndex
- See Also:
-
setColorIndex
Styled mode only. A specific color index to use for the series, so its graphic representations are given the class namehighcharts-color-{n}. -
getColorKey
- See Also:
-
setColorKey
Determines what data value should be used to calculate point color if colorAxis is used. Requires to setminandmaxif some custom point property is used or if approximation for data grouping is set to'sum'.Defaults to

Removes first occurrence of color in colors array- Parameters:
color- to remove- See Also:
-
getCrisp
- See Also:
-
setCrisp
When true, each 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, settingcrisptofalsemay look better, even though each column is rendered blurry.Defaults to: true
-
getCursor
- See Also:
-

setLinkedTo
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. -
getMaxPointWidth
- See Also:
-
setMaxPointWidth
The maximum allowed pixel width for a column, translated to the height of a bar in a bar chart. This prevents the columns from becoming too wide when there is a small number of points in the chart.Defaults to: null
-

-
getOpacity
- See Also:
-
setOpacity
Opacity of a series parts: line, fill (e.g. area) and dataLabels.Defaults to
1. -
getPointDescriptionFormatter
-
setPointDescriptionFormatter
-
getPointInterval
- See Also:
-
setPointInterval
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
pointIntervalUnitto draw irregular intervals.Defaults to: 1
-
getPointIntervalUnit
- See Also:
-
setPointIntervalUnit
On datetime series, this allows for setting the pointInterval to irregular time units,day,monthandyear. 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 withpointIntervalto draw weeks, quarters, 6 months, 10 years etc. -
getPointPadding
- See Also:
-
setPointPadding
Padding between each column or bar, in x axis units.Defaults to: 0.1
-
getPointPlacement
- See Also:
-
setPointPlacement
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
nullin cartesian charts,"between"in polar charts. -
getPointRange
- See Also:
-
setPointRange
The X axis range that each point is valid for. This determines the width of the column. On a categorized axis, the range will be 1 by default (one category unit). On linear and datetime axes, the range will be computed as the distance between the two closest data points. -
getPointStart
- See Also:
-
setPointStart
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
-
getPointWidth
- See Also:
-
setPointWidth
A pixel value specifying a fixed width for each column or bar. Whennull, the width is calculated from thepointPaddingandgroupPadding. -
getSelected
- See Also:
-
setSelected
Whether to select the series initially. IfshowCheckboxis true, the checkbox next to the series name will be checked for a selected series.Defaults to: false
-
getShowCheckbox
- See Also:

setShowCheckbox
If true, a checkbox is displayed next to the legend item to allow selecting the series. The state of the checkbox is determined by theselectedoption.Defaults to: false
-
getShowInLegend
- See Also:
-
setShowInLegend
Whether to display this particular series or series type in the legend. The default value istruefor standalone series,falsefor linked series.Defaults to: true
-

The dash style of the stem, the vertical line extending from the box to the whiskers.Defaults to: Solid
-
getStemWidth
- See Also:
-
setStemWidth
The width of the stem, the vertical line extending from the box to the whiskers. Ifnull, the width is inherited from the lineWidth option.Defaults to: null
-
getStickyTracking
- See Also:
-
setStickyTracking
Sticky tracking of mouse events. When true, themouseOutevent on a series isn't triggered until the mouse moves over another series, or out of the plot area. When false, themouseOutevent on a series is triggered when the mouse leaves the area around the series' graph or markers. This also implies the tooltip. WhenstickyTrackingis false andtooltip.sharedis false, the tooltip will be hidden when moving the mouse between series. Defaults to true for line and area type series, but to false for columns, pies etc.Defaults to: true
-
getTooltip
- See Also:
-
setTooltip
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. -
getTurboThreshold
- See Also:
-
setTurboThreshold
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 to0disable.Defaults to: 1000
