plotOptions.lollipop

The lollipop series is a carteseian series with a line anchored from the x axis and a dot at the end to mark the value. Requires highcharts-more.js, modules/dumbbell.js and modules/lollipop.js.

Configuration options for the series are given in three levels:

  1. Options for all series in a chart are defined in the plotOptions.series object.
  2. Options for all lollipop series are defined in plotOptions.lollipop.
  3. Options for one single series are given in the series instance array.
Highcharts.chart('container', {
    plotOptions: {
        series: {
            // general options for all series
        },
        lollipop: {
            // shared options for all lollipop series
        }
    },
    series: [{
        // specific options for this series instance
        type: 'lollipop'
    }]
});

TypeScript:

  • the type option must always be set.
  • when accessing an array of series, the combined set of all series types is represented by Highcharts.SeriesOptionsType . Narrowing down to the specific type can be done by checking the type property.
if (chart.options.series?.[0]?.type === lollipop) {
    // code specific to the lollipop series
}
