Getting the tooltip values from Highchart graph in the source code - javascript

I want to get the Vacancies and Vacancy Rate values that appear in the tooltip when the cursor hovers over this graph, however ideally I want to grab it straight from the source code. I found a dictionary in the code, though its values are different to what appears in the tooltip.
Eg Value in dict: 34, Value in tooltip: 1
Eg Value in dict: 1055.6270096463, Value in tooltip: 15.8
I'm guessing the values are being changed by some function, though I can't find it in the code. Below is the section of code relating to the tooltip. Any help would be appreciated.

I have a requirement to display completion percentage on a bar chart with the start date for each of those project as line chart.
Now, for achieving this I have created a chart with dual y-axis.
1 - axis-1 shows progress with bar-chart. With max: 100 - avoid displaying values > 100.
2 - axis-2 shows start dates with a line chart
With this set up, I expect the bar to go all the way to the end when value is 100 and the secondary axis to adjust with in it. Instead the bar stops at about 3/4 of the way and line chart actually plots point beyond bar chart's 100%.
Following jsfiddle would display the prominently.
var completionChart = $('#Chart').highcharts({
title: {
text: 'Project QUAL Status - SD/uSD'
},
xAxis: {
categories: window.xCategories,
crosshair: true
},

});
The width of the chart is set and I can not change it without affecting the overall design of the application. Changing the width does help sometimes, but I want a solution that does not depend on the chart width to work.

You need to set the alignTicks property to false in order to achieve this.

I have this highchart graph displayed on my website. How can I set an interval for my x-axis? e.g. I want the fist value to be displayed and then skip the second and display the third.
Can this be done? Or do you always just HAVE to display all the data you're passing to the axis in an array?
My code: (timestamp is a JS array that contains my time. I can get that time in epoch format. act and temps are arrays for data to be plotted along y-axis)

You need to Add a tickInterval:2 to your x-axis decleration like so
xAxis: [{
categories: timestamp,
crosshair: true,
tickInterval: 2
}],
Highcharts API Reference

I would like to have something similar to the image below, but the columns representing the classes all stack together now. How do I separate them and allow them to load dynamically as well?
Also I need a legend that says green is band 1, yellow is band 2, orange is band 3 and red is band 4, how do i do that as well? My code is in the JS Fiddle page. I am not allowed to use jQuery, need to use pure JavaScript.
var options = {
chart: {
renderTo : 'container',
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: 'Topic & Subtopic Mastery'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Average Level-Stream Mastery vs Average Class Mastery'
},
xAxis: {
categories: topics
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
max: 100,
title: {
text: 'Mastery'
}
},
legend: {
layout: 'vertical',
backgroundColor: '#FFFFFF',
align: 'left',
verticalAlign: 'top',
x: 100,
y: 70,
floating: true,
shadow: true
},
tooltip: {
shared: true,
valueSuffix: ' %'
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
grouping: false,
shadow: false
}
},
series: resultsData
};

I came up with a solution you are looking for with specifying x and y axis data for level and giving appropriate width to the point.
$(function() {
var chart;
$(document).ready(function() {
var i = 0;
Highcharts.getOptions().colors = Highcharts.map(Highcharts.getOptions().colors, function(color) {
if (i == 0) {
i++;
return Highcharts.Color(color)
.setOpacity(1)
.get('rgba');
} else {
i++;
return Highcharts.Color(color)
.setOpacity(0.5)
.get('rgba');
}
});
var colors = Highcharts.getOptions().colors;
chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container',
type: 'column',
plotBackgroundColor: null,
plotBorderWidth: null,
plotShadow: false,
borderColor: null
},
title: {
text: 'Mailboxes over Quota'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Mailbox Size in MB'
},
exporting: {
enabled: false
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
xAxis: {
categories: ["Overall Topic", "Topic 1", "Topic 2"],
title: {
text: null
}
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Total',
align: 'high'
},
allowDecimals: false,
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
return '' +
this.series.name + ': ' + Highcharts.numberFormat(this.y, 0, '.', ',');
}
},
legend: {
enabled: true
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
name: 'Level',
color: colors[0],
data: [{
y: 86,
x: 0.25
}, {
y: 80,
x: 1.25
}, {
y: 95,
x: 2.25
}],
pointWidth: 80
}, {
name: '4A',
data: [90, 88, 97]
}, {
name: '4B',
data: [95, 78, 92]
}, {
name: '4C',
data: [80, 69, 84]
}]
});
});
});
To show in label inside your column you can use below code.
plotOptions: {
column: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function() {
return this.series.name;
},
y: 25,
}
}
}
You can see it in action at this JSFIddle

I have a Highchart in my web application. In the browser it displays normally which is as follows:
But when I export the chart it flips the axis and I end up with the following image:
Following are the options I am using for my Highchart.
var options = ({
chart: {
renderTo: 'chartDiv'
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
title: {
text: ''
},
subtitle: {
text: ''
},
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime',
tickInterval: 7200 * 10000,
allowDecimals:false,
labels: {
format: '{value}',
rotation: 30,
align: 'left',
},
title: {
text: 'Date'
}
},
yAxis: [{
title: {
text: 'No. of rings'
},
min: 0
},
{ // Secondary yAxis
gridLineWidth: 0,
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Accumulative Rings',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]
}
},
labels: {
format: '{value} Ring',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]
}
},
opposite: true,
}
],
tooltip: {
shared: true
},
legend: { backgroundColor: 'rgba(211,223,181,0.6)', layout: 'vertical', align: 'left', verticalAlign: 'top', floating: true, borderWidth: 0, x: 70 },
plotOptions: {
spline: {
marker: {
enabled: false
},
}
}
});
I have three series in my chart, the bar chart can have 0 values.
The data is coming from an ajax service, which I put in an array and then add to chart as follows:
chart.addSeries({
type: 'bar',
name: 'Rings per day ',
data: barData,
pointInterval: mainInterval
});
chart.addSeries({
type: 'spline',
name: 'Accumilative rings ',
data: spline1Data,
yAxis: 1,
});
chart.addSeries({
type: 'spline',
name: 'Planned Progress ',
data: spline2Data,
yAxis: 1,
color: "#FF0000"
});
What's wrong with my chart?

bar series is the key part. bar series forces chart to be rendered flipped. In your case use column. It displays differently on your browser because, most probably, you have an old version of Highcharts.

I have the attached chart output.
How can I put the name of the axis exactly on the axis instead of positioning it between the axis (ie: N, E, S, W).
The JS code is given below:
window.chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: 'container2',
polar: true,
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: '24-Hours Wind Speed and Direction Chart'
},
pane: {
startAngle: 0,
endAngle: 360,
size: '85%'
},
legend: {
reversed: true,
enabled: false,
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: 100,
layout: 'vertical'
},
xAxis: {
type: "",
categories: sorted_names,
labels: {
formatter: function () {
return this.value + '°';
}
}
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
endOnTick: true,
showLastLabel: false
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
// pointStart: 0,
// pointInterval: 90
// pointPlacement: 'between'
},
column: {
pointPadding: 0,
groupPadding: 0
}
},
series: series
});
Is there anyone who can help me to fix this. Thanks in advance.

I believe you are looking for a combination of the tickMarkPlacement option and the pointPlacement option.
xAxis: {
tickmarkPlacement: 'on', // add this!
type: "",
categories: sorted_names,
labels: {
formatter: function () {
return this.value + '°';
}
}
},
And in the plot options:
plotOptions: {
series: {
pointPlacement: 'on' // add this !
},
column: {
pointPadding: 0,
groupPadding: 0
}
},
Here's a fiddle demonstration.
