Enable or disable the initial animation when a series is displayed.
Enable or disable the initial animation when a series is displayed. The animation can also be set as a configuration object. Please note that this option only applies to the initial animation of the series itself. For other animations, see chart.animation and the animation parameter under the API methods. The following properties are supported: <dl> <dt>duration</dt>
Math
object. See the easing demo.Due to poor performance, animation is disabled in old IE browsers for column charts and polar charts.
The main color of the series.
The main color of 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.
When using automatic point colors pulled from the options.colors
collection, this option determines whether the chart should receive
one color per series or one color per point.

Compare the values of the series against the first non-null, non-zero value in the visible range.
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.
1.0.1
When the series contains less points than the crop threshold, all points are drawn, event if the points fall outside the visible plot area at the current zoom.
When the series contains less points than the crop threshold, all points are drawn, event 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. .
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.

Enable or disable the mouse tracking for a specific series.
Enable or disable the mouse tracking for a specific series. This includes point tooltips and click events on graphs and points. When using shared tooltips (default in stock charts), mouse tracking is not required. For large datasets it improves performance.
Padding between each value groups, in x axis units.
Whether to group non-stacked columns or to let them render independent of each other.
Whether to group non-stacked columns or to let them render independent of each other. Non-grouped columns will be laid out individually and overlap each other.
1.2.0
An array specifying which option maps to which key in the data point array.
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.
2.1.6
The sequential index of the series within the legend.
The pixel width of the line/border.
The pixel width of the line/border. Defaults to 1
.
The id of another series to link to.
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.
1.3
The maximum allowed pixel width for a column, translated to the height of a bar in a bar chart.
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.
2.1.8
The minimal height for a column or width for a bar.
The minimal height for a column or width for a bar. By default, 0 values are not shown. To visualize a 0 (or close to zero) point, set the minimal point length to a pixel value like 3. In stacked column charts, minPointLength might not be respected for tightly packed values.
Properties for each single point
If no x values are given for the points in a series, pointInterval defines the interval of the x values in milliseconds.
If no x values are given for the points in a series, pointInterval defines the interval of the x values in milliseconds. For example, if a series contains one value each day, set pointInterval to 24 * 3600 * 1000
.
Since Highstock 2.1, it can be combined with pointIntervalUnit
to draw irregular intervals.
On datetime series, this allows for setting the pointInterval to the two irregular time units, month
and year
.
On datetime series, this allows for setting the pointInterval to the two irregular time units, month
and year
. Combine it with pointInterval
to draw quarters, 6 months, 10 years etc.
2.1.0
Padding between each column or bar, in x axis units.
Possible values: null
, "on"
, "between"
.
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.
1.2.0
The width of each point on the x axis.
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. In a series on a categorized axis the pointRange is 1 by default.
1.2
If no x values are given for the points in a series, pointStart defines on what value to start.
If no x values are given for the points in a series, pointStart defines on what value to start. On a datetime X axis, the number will be given as milliseconds since 1970-01-01, for example Date.UTC(2011, 0, 1)
.
A pixel value specifying a fixed width for each column or bar.
A pixel value specifying a fixed width for each column or bar. When null
, the width is calculated from the pointPadding
and groupPadding
.
Whether to select the series initially.
Whether to select the series initially. If showCheckbox
is true, the checkbox next to the series name in the legend will be checked for a selected series.
Whether to apply a drop shadow to the graph line.
Whether to apply a drop shadow to the graph line. Since 1.1.7 the shadow can be an object configuration containing color
, offsetX
, offsetY
, opacity
and width
.
If true, a checkbox is displayed next to the legend item to allow selecting the series.
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.
Whether to display this particular series or series type in the legend.
Whether to display this particular series or series type in the legend. The default value is true
for standalone series, false
for linked series.
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.
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.
2.1.9
A wrapper object for all the series options in specific states.
Sticky tracking of mouse events.
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 not shared. When stickyTracking
is 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, candlesticks etc.
The threshold, also called zero level or base level.
The threshold, also called zero level or base level. For line type series this is only used in conjunction with negativeColor.
A configuration object for the tooltip rendering of each single series.
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.
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.
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.
Set the initial visibility of the series.
Set the initial visibility of the series.

2.1.0
An array defining zones within a series.
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.
