I'm currently working on highcharts and I am confused on how highcharts work with multiple axes, to be exact, i wanted to have a secondary axis-y but I don't understand how it works. Can someone explain to me how can I add the secondary axis and the data that i will be inputted on last will based on the secondary axis? Thank you.
Below is the example of multiple axes I've searched in jsfiddle.
http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/library/pure/highcharts/highcharts/tree/master/samples/highcharts/demo/combo-multi-axes/
Below is the code of multiple axis:
yAxis: [{ // Primary yAxis
labels: {
format: '{value}°C',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[2]
}
},
title: {
text: 'Temperature',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[2]
}
},
opposite: true
}, { // Secondary yAxis
gridLineWidth: 0,
title: {
text: 'Rainfall',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]
}
},
labels: {
format: '{value} mm',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]
}
}
}, { // Tertiary yAxis
gridLineWidth: 0,
title: {
text: 'Sea-Level Pressure',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[1]
}
},
labels: {
format: '{value} mb',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[1]
}
},
opposite: true
}]
Too hard to explain by word so i've created sample chart with 2 y-Axis and i've comment on some important action to work with multiple yAxis.

Hope it useful to you.
In the code you have posted you have three y-axes. Highcharts gives these axis indexes 0, 1, 2 respectively. When you input a new series, you need to tell highcharts which axis this series should use, based on these indexes. So for example, to tie data to the rainfall axis, you will need to do the following:
series: {
yAxis: 1,
data: [0,0.2,0.4]
}
See API for information and the following example from highcharts demos.

In this example, secondary yaxis label "Rainfall" is enabled by default.
What Im looking for is disabled "Rainfall" by default. User can then click on it and enable it.
Here's what I am looking for:
Rainfall is disabled here.
Thank you in advance!!
We can just pass "visible: false" in the data series. This will disable the series by default.

Im trying to add a plot line to a line chart. When the data is same e.g [7.0, 7.0, 7.0] the plot line doesn't show. But when the data is up and down then the plot line shows e.g [7.0, 8.0, 7.0]. Is there a way to make the plot line show when the data is the same? JSFiddle
My high chart set up is:
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
title: {
text: 'Monthly Average Temperature',
x: -20 //center
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Source: WorldClimate.com',
x: -20
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun',
'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Temperature (°C)'
},
plotLines:[{
value:10,
color: '#ff0000',
width:2,
zIndex:4,
label:{text:'goal'}
}]
},
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: '°C'
},
legend: {
layout: 'vertical',
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'middle',
borderWidth: 0
},
series: [{
name: 'Tokyo',
data: [7.0, 7.0, 7.0, 7.0]
}]
});
});
Your problem is connected with how your yAxis look right now. When you have the same y value of your data, your yAxis has the same min and max. For example if you have data: [7.0, 7.0, 7.0, 7.0], your yAxis min and max is equal to 7.
If your plotLine has value:10, you cannot see it in your chart. To see this plotLine you can manually set min and max of your yAxis:
yAxis: {
min: 5,
max: 10,
title: {
text: 'Temperature (°C)'
},
plotLines: [{
value: 10,
color: '#ff0000',
width: 2,
zIndex: 4,
label: {
text: 'goal'
}
}]
},
Here you can see an example: http://jsfiddle.net/g34pk5tc/3/
To make possibility of changing extremes in your yAxis, better idea will be to add series with invisible point, where y value of this point will be equal to value of your plotLine. Here you can see an example how it can work:
function(chart) {
chart.addSeries({
showInLegend: false,
enableMouseTracking: false,
data: [10],
marker: {
enabled: false
}
})
}

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)
$(function () {
$('#tempactgraph').highcharts({
chart: {
zoomType: 'xy'
},
title: {
text: 'Temperature & Activity Monitoring '
},
subtitle: {
text: 'Source: Cowlar Sensors'
},
xAxis: [{
categories: timestamp,
crosshair: true
}],
yAxis: [{ // Primary yAxis
labels: {
format: '{value}°C',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[1]
}
},
title: {
text: 'Temperature',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[1]
}
}
}, { // Secondary yAxis
title: {
text: 'Activity',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]
}
},
labels: {
format: '{value} xx',
style: {
color: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[0]
}
},
opposite: true
}],
tooltip: {
shared: true
},
legend: {
layout: 'vertical',
align: 'left',
x: 120,
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: 100,
floating: true,
backgroundColor: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.legendBackgroundColor) || '#FFFFFF'
},
series: [{
name: 'Activities',
type: 'spline',
connectNulls: 1,
yAxis: 1,
data: act,
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: ' xx'
}
}, {
name: 'Temperature',
type: 'spline',
connectNulls: 1,
data: temps,
tooltip: {
valueSuffix: '°C'
}
}]
});
});
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 am trying to remove the offset on the tick of the x-axis.
I want the first tick 10/8 to start from the x-axis and y-axis intersection.
10-8 should be on the marker which is between the two labels.
I have following code for it in highchart.
xAxis: {
categories: categories,
title: {
text: title_x_axis,
style: {
fontWeight: 'bold'
},
formatter: function(){
return "<h3><b>" + this.value + "</b></h3>";
}
},
min: 0,
startOnTick: true,
endOnTick: true,
minPadding: 0,
maxPadding: 0,
align: "left"
},
Max padding and min padding are set to 0, So I don't know what the problem is?
EDIT:
I have created a fiddle of the type of chart I am dealing with.
Note Image below has different x-axis values as I am not using the same value of fiddle.
Also I have set tickmarkPlacement: "on" after I took that snapshot.
I want Jan label to start from the beginning of line. It has some offset currently.
Can anyone help me with this?
You could use (assuming 'categories' is your array of categories)
min: 0.5,
max: categories.length-1.5,
startOnTick: false,
endOnTick: false,
Example: http://jsfiddle.net/27hg0v06/1/
Use newset version of highcharts to get fully working tooltip:
<script src="http://github.highcharts.com/highcharts.js"></script>
Add pointPlacement: 'on' in plotOptions.
plotOptions: {
series: {
pointPlacement: 'on'
}
}
Take a look at the tickMarkPlacement property:
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#xAxis.tickmarkPlacement
By default, it is 'between', which is what you are seeing on your chart.
Setting it to 'on' should do what you need.
You can look at the minPadding and maxPadding properties in addition to the tickMarkPlacement:
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#xAxis.minPadding
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#xAxis.maxPadding
Updated Fiddle:
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
xAxis: {
categories: ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec'],
tickInterval: 1,
tickmarkPlacement: "on",
startOnTick: true,
endOnTick: true,
minPadding: 0,
maxPadding: 0,
offset: 0
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
findNearestPointBy: 'x',
label: {
connectorAllowed: false
},
pointPlacement: 'on'
}
},
series: [{
data: [29.9, 71.5, 106.4, 129.2, 144.0, 176.0, 135.6, 148.5, 216.4, 194.1, 95.6, 54.4]
}]
});
});

You Just Need to Add the following before series object:
plotOptions: {
series: {
findNearestPointBy: 'x',
label: {
connectorAllowed: false
},
pointPlacement: 'on'
}
},

In my HTML-Page I got two buttons to increase/decrease (+1/-1) a number in a textfield, starting at 200. The number represents a x-Coordinate in the graph.
I would like to highlight the shown number of my textfield in the graph with another color and a bigger point when the graph is loaded the first time and also when the user changes the number using one of these buttons. How can I do this?
I tried
chart.series[0].options.data[valueOfTextfield].color = 'yellow';
chart.redraw(true);
in the onclick method of the buttons but it doesnt work.
Thanks for your answers!
Using a marker we can do this:
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec']
},
series: [{
data: [29.9, { marker: {
fillColor: '#FF0000',
lineWidth: 3,
lineColor: "#FF0000" // inherit from series
},y:71.5}, 106.4, 129.2, 144.0, 176.0, 135.6, 148.5, 216.4, 194.1, 95.6, 54.4]
}]
});
});
http://jsfiddle.net/zR4Kn/
use the select method of the point object
