Highcharts, Set XAXIS only show certain time/number

I want to create chart like this with highcharts, it is possible to set xAxis like image below?
I try to use tickpoints and tickinterval but still didn't get the result I wanted
Sample of actual data,
This is result I get now, i want to change xaxis into interval 30 minutes like first image
My code
$.ajax({
url: "",
type: 'GET',
dataType:'json',
success: function(data) {
// console.log(data) ;
var chartSeriesData=[];
var chartCatData=[];
$.each(data, function(i,item){
var series_name = item.time;
var series_data = item.power;
chartSeriesData.push(series_data);
chartCatData.push(series_name);
});
Highcharts.chart('power', {
title: {text: ''},
subtitle: {text: ''},
yAxis: {
title: {text: ''}
// ,min: 0, max: 0.010
},
xAxis: {
categories: chartCatData,
title: {
text: ''
},
labels: {
enabled: true
}
},
legend: {
layout: 'vertical',
align: 'right',
verticalAlign: 'middle'
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
label: {
connectorAllowed: false
}
}
},
series: [
{
// name: 'Power',
data: chartSeriesData
}
],
Result console.log(data)

You should use datetime axis type and format your x values as timestamps in milliseconds.
const chartSeriesData = data.map(
item => [new Date(item.date).getTime(), item.power]
);
Highcharts.chart('container', {
xAxis: {
type: 'datetime',
tickInterval: 1000 * 60 * 30
},
series: [{
data: chartSeriesData
}]
});

How to do customer data instead of json from the link (stockchart)

Referred this link and having doubt with this code {$.getJSON('https://www.highcharts.com/samples/data/jsonp.php?filename=' + name.toLowerCase() + '-c.json&callback=?'},
I have Json data, if i replace instead of JSON link in the stockchart,chart get disappeared. If have only from last month,the chart should display from the last month. I don't know how to replace the link with my data. And i have 2 series, can I change to line to bar in stock highcharts to column?
Please share the points for 2 series column charts with the data from server side.
I have tried,replaced the link with my server side data.

highcharts - 2 date picker questions

1) I am wondering how I can remove the date picker from the right side of the chart? I really only need the left rangeSelector buttons i.e. 24 hours, 6 hours...
2) is there anyway to turn off the dataLabels when you click on one of the rangeSelector options as well?
When zoomed in to show 5 minutes worth of data the dataLabels are handy, but when looking at 24 hours worth they make the chart quite unusable due to crowding. It would be nice if they could be automagically turned off when I zoomed out.
Huge thanks for your help, if this is indeed possible.
For the second option, i'm looking to toggle the visibility of
plotOptions:{series: {
dataLabels:{
enabled:true,

how to create a column char with highcharts where each column has a different color

I´ve a chart using highcharts, the only problem is that each column has the same column.
What should I do so each column has a different column.
Here is my code:
var charts = [];
$containers = $('#container1');
var datasets = [
{
name: 'Tokyo',
data: [49, 57]
}];
var cat = ['A', 'B'];
console.log(datasets);
$.each(datasets, function(i, dataset) {
console.log(dataset);
charts.push(new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo: $containers[i],
type: 'column',
marginLeft: i === 0 ? 100 : 10
},
title: {
text: dataset.name,
align: 'left',
x: i === 0 ? 90 : 0
},
credits: {
enabled: false
},
xAxis: {
categories: cat,
labels: {
enabled: i === 0
}
},
yAxis: {
allowDecimals: false,
title: {
text: null
}
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
series: [dataset]
}));
});
Thanks in advance.

To have each column be a different color, all you have to do is set the colorByPoint property to true.
Reference:
http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#plotOptions.column.colorByPoint
Alternatively you can make each column a separate series, which gives you additional levels of control.
OTOH, in the majority of cases, having each column a separate color serves no purpose except to clutter and confuse the data, and make the user work harder cognitively to interpret the chart.
If you want to highlight a single column for a particular reason, you can do that by adding the fillColor property to the data array:
Something like:
data:[2,4,5,{y:9,fillColor:'rgba(204,0,0,.75)',note:'Wow, look at this one'},4,5,6]

I finally found a way to show more than 1 color for each column:
var charts1 = [];
var $containers1 = $('#container1');
var datasets1 = [{
name: 'Dalias',
data: [29]
},
{
name: 'Lilas',
data: [1]
},
{
name: 'Tulipanes',
data: [15]
}];
$('#container1').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'column',
backgroundColor: 'transparent'
},
title: {
text: 'Montos pedidos por división'
},
tooltip: {
pointFormat: '<span style="color:{series.color};" />{series.name} </span>:<b>{point.y}</b>',
useHTML: true
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
pointPadding: 0.2,
borderWidth: 0
},
series : {
cursor: 'pointer',
point: {
events: {
/*click: function() {
verDetalle("Especialidades,"+ this.series.name);
}*/
}
}
}
},
credits:{
enabled: false
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: ''
}
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['División']
},
series: datasets1
});

How do I make a Tornado Chart using Highcharts

I am trying to prepare a Tornado Chart using the column chart in Highcharts. Here is my fiddle.
My current code is:
$('#container').highcharts({
chart: {
type: 'columnrange',
inverted: true
},
title: {
text: 'Net Sales'
},
subtitle: {
text: 'MM $'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Annual Revenue', 'Number of Years', 'Annual Costs']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'MM $'
}
},
plotOptions: {
columnrange: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function () {
return this.y;
}
}
},
scatter:{
marker:{
symbol:'line',
lineWidth:11,
radius:8,
lineColor:'#f00'
}
}
},
legend: {
enabled: false
},
series: [{
name: 'Temperatures',
data: [
[12.15, 46.86],
[15.45, 42.28],
[27.77, 31.24]
]
},
{
name:'Base',type: 'scatter',data:[120],
}]
});
The problem is that the last series (Annual Costs) does not show, as it is in reversed order. Also, I'd like the Tornado Chart to look more like this:
Note that the labels in this chart are different from the actual values plotted. Also note that the bar in the center - in the example code, there would be a vertical line at 29.5. I would also like to support a combined uncertainty bar like the one at the bottom. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Your last bat is not showing, because first number is lower than second, see: http://jsfiddle.net/kErPt/1/
If you want to display another values at labels, then add that info first. Example:
data: [{
low: 12,
high: 15,
lowLabel: 35,
highLabel: 46
}, {
low: 2,
high: 35,
lowLabel: 15,
highLabel: 26
} ... ]
And then use dataLabels.formatter for series.
To add vertical line use plotLines.
I'm not sure what is the last bar called 'combined uncertainty'.

I've used Highcharts with separate series (thanks jlbriggs) to create a Tornado Chart: http://jsfiddle.net/uRjBp/
var baseValue = 29.5;
var outputTitle = "Net Sales";
var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
chart: {
renderTo:'container',
//type:'column'
//type:'area'
//type:'scatter'
//type:'bubble'
},
credits: {},
exporting: {},
legend: {},
title: {
text: outputTitle
},
subtitle: {
text: "MM $"
},
tooltip: {
formatter: function() {
var msg = "";
var index = this.series.chart.xAxis[0].categories.indexOf(this.x);
var low = round(this.series.chart.series[0].data[index].y+baseValue);
var high = round(this.series.chart.series[1].data[index].y+baseValue);
if (this.x === "Combined Uncertainty") {
msg = "Combined Uncertainty in "+outputTitle+": "+low+" to "+high;
} else {
var lowLabel = this.series.chart.series[0].data[index].label;
var highLabel = this.series.chart.series[1].data[index].label;
msg = '<b>'+outputTitle+'</b> goes from '+ low +' to '+ high+'<br/> when '+this.x +
' goes from <br/> '+lowLabel+" to "+highLabel;
}
return msg;
}
},
plotOptions: {
series: {
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function () {
var index = this.series.chart.xAxis[0].categories.indexOf(this.x);
if (this.series.userOptions.labels === undefined) {
return this.y+baseValue;
}
return this.key === "Combined Uncertainty" ? "":this.series.userOptions.labels[index];
}
}
}
},
xAxis: {
title: {
text: 'Factor'
},
allowDecimals:false,
categories: ['Annual Revenue', 'Number of Years', 'Annual Costs', 'Combined Uncertainty']
},
yAxis: {
title: {
text: 'MM $'
},
labels: {
formatter:function() {
return this.value+baseValue;
}
}
},
series:[{
name: 'Low',
grouping:false,
type:'bar',
data:[{y:12.15-baseValue, label:10},{y:15.45-baseValue, label:1},{y:31.25-baseValue, label:2},{y:12.15-baseValue, color:'#99CCFF', label: ""}],
labels:[10,1,2,]
},{
name: 'High',
grouping:false,
type:'bar',
data:[{y:46.86-baseValue, label:30},{y:42.28-baseValue, label:3},{y:27.77-baseValue, label:4},{y:46.86-baseValue, color:'#99CCFF', label:""}],
labels:[30,3,4,]
},
{
name: 'Median',
type: 'scatter',
data: [null,null, null,27-baseValue],
marker: {
lineWidth: 2,
lineColor: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[3],
fillColor: 'white'
}
}]
});
function round(num) {
return Math.round(num*100)/100;
}

usually, this kind of chart is done using a separate series for the left and right portions
One way to do this is by setting one set of data as negative numbers, and then using the formatters to make the axis labels, datalabels, and tooltips display the absolute values
example:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/yPLVP/68/
UPDATE:
to show a line as in your original chart, you can extend the marker symbols to include a line type, and use a scatter series to draw that point:
http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/yPLVP/69/
If you don't want to have the extra code for the line marker type, you could use any of the other existing marker symbols for the scatter series.
