Highcharts - 2 synchronized activity gauges

I am starting from this Highcharts activity gauge and trying to have two of them, aligned horizontally (similar to this other example) and synchronised.
I started modifying the code from the 1st example, based on the 2nd example, and so far I am unsuccessful, the 2nd chart doesn't even display successfully.
What I am doing wrong?
My code, also in JSFiddle:
function renderIcons() {
// Move icon
if (!this.series[0].icon) {
this.series[0].icon = this.renderer.path(['M', -8, 0, 'L', 8, 0, 'M', 0, -8, 'L', 8, 0, 0, 8])
.attr({
'stroke': '#303030',
'stroke-linecap': 'round',
'stroke-linejoin': 'round',
'stroke-width': 2,
'zIndex': 10
})
.add(this.series[2].group);
}
this.series[0].icon.translate(
this.chartWidth / 2 - 10,
this.plotHeight / 2 - this.series[0].points[0].shapeArgs.innerR -
(this.series[0].points[0].shapeArgs.r - this.series[0].points[0].shapeArgs.innerR) / 2
);
// Exercise icon
if (!this.series[1].icon) {
this.series[1].icon = this.renderer.path(
['M', -8, 0, 'L', 8, 0, 'M', 0, -8, 'L', 8, 0, 0, 8,
'M', 8, -8, 'L', 16, 0, 8, 8
]
)
.attr({
'stroke': '#ffffff',
'stroke-linecap': 'round',
'stroke-linejoin': 'round',
'stroke-width': 2,
'zIndex': 10
})
.add(this.series[2].group);
}
this.series[1].icon.translate(
this.chartWidth / 2 - 10,
this.plotHeight / 2 - this.series[1].points[0].shapeArgs.innerR -
(this.series[1].points[0].shapeArgs.r - this.series[1].points[0].shapeArgs.innerR) / 2
);
// Stand icon
if (!this.series[2].icon) {
this.series[2].icon = this.renderer.path(['M', 0, 8, 'L', 0, -8, 'M', -8, 0, 'L', 0, -8, 8, 0])
.attr({
'stroke': '#303030',
'stroke-linecap': 'round',
'stroke-linejoin': 'round',

.add(this.series[2].group);
}

The problem in your example is that you don't have separate charts but one chart with two yAxis. Check Highcharts synchronized charts example here: jsfiddle. Notice, that each chart is separate and inserted into separate div container.
So firstly create two solidgauge type charts and align them horizontally. Then add mousemove trigger on a container div element that contains your charts. Highcharts wrap all browser events and when you hover over charts series you have information about a hovered chart, series etc.
Use hovered series index to invoke onMouseOver() method on proper series in both charts and refresh tooltip with the point from hovered series:
HTML:
<div id="container">
<div id="container1"></div>
<div id="container2"></div>
</div>
JS:
['mousemove', 'touchmove', 'touchstart'].forEach(function(eventType) {
document.getElementById('container').addEventListener(
eventType,
function(e) {
var chart,
point,
i,
seriesIndex,
event;
for (i = 0; i < Highcharts.charts.length; i = i + 1) {
chart = Highcharts.charts[i];
event = chart.pointer.normalize(e);
if (event.srcElement.point) {
seriesIndex = event.srcElement.point.series.index;
}
if (chart.series[seriesIndex]) {
point = chart.series[seriesIndex].points[0];
chart.series[seriesIndex].onMouseOver();
chart.tooltip.refresh(point);
}
}
}
);
});
Notice, Highcharts.charts contains all charts reference.

HighCharts :(Solid Gauge) How to generate gauge dial with an arrow end.

I am trying to create a custom data dial using high charts ( solid gauge ).
Please help me .
I am unable to generate an arrow end like tip dial of solid gauge. This is my current chart :
Updated Code : Please copy paste the code in the fiddle link provided below:
$(function() {
var gaugeOptions = {

}]
}));
});

Expected result :

You can realize it by wrapping dial method (translate) and edit path.
point.shapeArgs = {
d: dialOptions.path || [
'M', -rearLength, -baseWidth / 2,
'L',
baseLength, -baseWidth / 2,
radius, -topWidth / 2,
radius - 10, -topWidth / 2 - 10,
'M',
radius, -topWidth / 2,
'L',
radius - 10, -topWidth / 2 + 10,
'M',
radius, -topWidth / 2,
baseLength, baseWidth / 2, -rearLength, baseWidth / 2,
'z'
],

using jQuery to select and edit nested values in this script

Is it possible to access and change the elements of an object within a function using jQuery? For example, can I use a separate jQuery function to access line 33 of the JS on this JSfiddle and dynamically change the content of the chart title?
(I've tried replacing text: 'Activity', with a reference to an object property such as text: myObj.title, with no luck)

I would suggest to create a separate object for providing options in .chart method (second param). You can set the required value in option.title.text before the chart method executes. No change will be reflected if you change the value after method execute.
But if you want to change the value after the chart has been created then you will have to refer documentation of the Highcharts plugin.
hope it helps.

No, the script is self-executing anonymous function, you can't access anything inside it because it'll be out of scope. The scope within that function can only be accessed by other members inside it.
The only way to access something internally is to attache that value or method to the window object from within. This is essentially the "global" scope in Javascript.
window.whatever = 'something';
Then, you'll be able to access it from another script.
console.log(window.whatever);

Gauge chart with steps of colors

How can I achieve this using highcarts? tired using stops:[...] but it will not work as above image.
yAxis: {
min: 0,
max: 100
},
series: [{
name: 'customers',
data: [{
color: {
//
linearGradient: { x1: 0, y1: 0, x2: 1, y2: 0},
stops: [
[0.1, '#009a60'],
[0.2, '#4aa84e'],
[0.3, '#92b73a'],
[0.4, '#c6bf22'],
[0.5, '#edbd02'],
[0.6, '#ffad00'],
[0.7, '#ff8c00'],
[0.8, '#fc6114'],
[0.9, '#f43021'],
[1.0, '#ed0022']
]
},
y:76
}],
dataLabels: {
format: '<div class="prc" style="text-align:center;"><span style="font-weight:normal; font-family:Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial; font-size:52px;' +
'#333' + '">{y}</span>'
}
}]

One way of getting this char could be to use axis line and ticks to cover a chart to create white spaces. Next you could add more points and set stops with a color format that is not supported for a gradient - like hex color format with 3 digits ("#rgb").

How to disable tooltip in highcharts gauge?

I try to disable tooltip for gauge but no matter what I do, it doesn't work.

Any ideas?

Try adding it to the config object itslef?
http://jsfiddle.net/hesonazx/
$('#container').highcharts({
tooltip: {
enabled: false
},
chart: {
...
});
This is based on the documentation. Notice that the toottip property for a guage type chart doesn't have an enabled option. The general tooltip property does however.

You can just add .highcharts-tooltip{opacity: 0;}
See fiddle http://jsfiddle.net/DIRTY_SMITH/dpyy732d/2/
