Members and properties

For modifying the chart at runtime. See the class reference.

Welcome to the Highcharts JS (highcharts) Options Reference

These pages outline the chart configuration options, and the methods and properties of Highcharts objects.

Feel free to search this API through the search bar or the navigation tree in the sidebar.

series.area

A area series. If the type option is not specified, it is inherited from chart.type.

In TypeScript the type option must always be set.

Configuration options for the series are given in three levels:

Options for all series in a chart are defined in the plotOptions.series object.
Options for all area series are defined in plotOptions.area.
Options for one single series are given in the series instance array.

Highcharts.chart('container', {
    plotOptions: {
        series: {
            // general options for all series
        },
        area: {
            // shared options for all area series
        }
    },
    series: [{
        // specific options for this series instance
        type: 'area'
    }]
});
