  1. maxRange for axes

    The option minRange allows it to determine the minimum extent an axis will display (for example if the user zooms into the chart). It would make sense to have a maxRange equivalent, particularly for simulation data where 'optimal runs' often increase exponentially. See also http://stackoverflow.com/questions/17287920/

  2. Can we have a timeline chart which is absolutely business oriented

    Can we have a timeline chart which is absolutely business oriented? Basically Business team here at my organisation would like to visualize charts based on fiscal year instead of calendar year. For example
    i. Fiscal year starts on 1st of July every year.
    ii. Aggregating data based on Fiscal quarters
    iii. Flexibility for aggregating week data as per the selected day(In our case we aggregated week data from Saturday to Friday)
    iv. Formatting x-axis labels as Fiscal years/ Quarters/ Months/ Weeks not just calendar year/ month / week

  4. Add option to render in HTML5 canvas for large data sets

    SVG is too slow for very large data sets as you pointed out in this helpful example: http://www.highcharts.com/demo/heatmap-canvas

    I realize that highcharts has moved to using SVG, but it would provide the user more flexibility if they could choose the renderer (SVG or canvas). Extending highcharts to use canvas.

    In my usage case, I have anywhere from 3,000 to 30,000 data points in my map. Switching to canvas made the map render over twice as fast (and is much more responsive)...but it has been a lot of effort to get the desired features working.

    (BTW, I believe Zingcharts has this…

  5. Zoom the background Image along with the axis in scatter charts

    Right now in the Scatter chart the zoom function only zooms the value and the axis. I suggest let it zoom the background image also. So image below the clip box will be the new image of the zoomed chart

  6. Enhanced Heatmap with empty spaces between row / column cells

  7. To add Filter Option on Categories.(We can hide whole categories by selecting categories from multi select drop-down )

    In Stacked column chart, Consider,

    I have 3 main categories, i.e. Product1, Product2, Product3..

    Each Product has 2 sub categories i.e. Open Bugs, Resolved Bugs..

    Bugs are raised by Robert and David are the our Legends..

    Now..I am suggesting to provide an option Like drop - down (May be multi select) which will contain all sub categories i.e. Open Bugs and Resolved Bugs..

    So if user selects any one of them..charts will display all data for that selected value..in above example if user selects Open Bugs option the all product will hide data related to Resolved bugs and will show…

  8. Make pie slices selectable through data labels

    In pie charts slices with very small percentage (e.g. 0.01%) currently aren't selectable. This could be fixed by handling click events on data labels.

  9. Crosshair snapping

    When I move my mouse ("zoomType=x" enabled chart) over the data, the x-crosshair seems to snap to the datapoints. there should be a way to either:

    1. turn off the "auto-snapping" function
    2. disable/hide the "x-crosshair" when a "zoomSelection" or "mousedown" event takes place and then enable/show it after a "mouseup"?
    3. snap the "selection start/end" to the "snapped-datapoint"

    Any one of these solutions or any other suggestion would be great!

  11. Center Label in Doughnut Charts

    As of now it is quite tricky to place a label in the center of a doughnut chart (i.e a pie chart with innerRadius). It would be very nice to have an option in Highcharts to let it do that automatically.

  15. Hide Overlapping StackLabels

    For stacked bar and column charts, it would be great to have collision detection for stack labels that overlap with each other. Since this is already enabled for regular data labels it would be nice to have stack labels behave in the same way and be toggled through a similar allowOverlap property.

  16. Provide pointWidth as a percent value

    Consider the scenario that there is a re-sizable box plot chart. When the chart is reduced to a smaller size, box plots start overlapping because pointWidth can only be given in pixels. And when the chart is enlarged, box plots are seen to be smaller with respect to chart size. The same goes for column charts, etc.

    So, there should be a feature where we can provide percentage values for pointWidth.

    under review  ·  AdminTorstein Hønsi (CPO, Founder, Highcharts JS) responded

    I don’t really think this is needed, please correct me if I’m wrong. Instead of using pointWidth, you can control the width by using pointPadding, which is relative. The pointPadding option allows you to pack the boxes tightly, with a 50% gap or whatever, and it will respond to different chart widths.

  17. Boost module for mappoint

    Mappoint series are not supported by the boost module.
    This could be useful to have it for "Rain radar image" where each point has a set of coordinates with a value which determine its color.
    The current version does not support it when there is a lot of rain (thus a lot of points).

    It could also be useful in other situation where a lot of location have to be displayed on a map

  18. Area Fill: multiple fill levels

    Currently area is filled above and below some threshold level. It'd be nice, if two separate levels could be specified: top and bottom with are filled above top and below bottom. Even color could be specified for each fill: top-color, bottom-color.

    Example: http://cl.ly/5mGw

  19. Auto rotate X-axis label on column chart

    In a column chart, it looks fine with the x-axis label rotation of 315 when the bars are closed together. However, when the bars are sparse, then it looks too spacious and unnecessary. The trouble is I don't know how many data points in advance. I would like a new feature with autoRotation: 315 for the axis label.

  20. add an 'above' y-axis title align option

    A standard way of displaying the title of a vertical axis is horizontally above the axis labels (see http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2179993/axis_top_chart.png). The only way to achieve this currently with Highcharts is to rotate the title and manually position the it using the 'margin', 'x', and 'y' axis title properties. It would be useful if this positioning could be calculated internally, and specified by an additional option to the 'align' property.
