Reverse order in stacked charts
The current logic for the "normal" stacking is that the series are stacked from the top to the bottom. There should be an easy way to reverse the order, our users are used to build the stack from the bottom to the top and not vice versa. I suggest adding something like plotOptions { stackingOrder: 'reversed' }// default 'normal'

Support more intuitive legend customization - (maxHeight/navigation issue)
Namely, I have an issue with the misleading maxHeight property. If you are digging deep enough in the docs to customize the legend to use maxHeight, this property's value should be taken as gospel.
Either that or allow for the navigation (pagination) of the legend to be disabled without having to have useHTML enabled.18 votes -
Make charts responsive in the same fasion as frameworks like Bootstrap
The idea would be to have Highcharts inherit classes from the framework which enable responsive behavior based on device specs, similar to the 'col-" classes in the latest version of Bootstrap. I would think that responsivness should extend to the various attributes of the graph like scales, etc.

chord diagram
A chord diagram or an extended diagram is basically used to show data flow between multiple entities. We can have a circular chord diagram or an extended one.
Currently we are achieving it through d3.js, but that requires lot of complex coding18 votesThanks for your suggestion, we do have this study that includes a subset of chord diagrams: http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/library/pure/highcharts/highcharts/tree/samples/highcharts/studies/circle-relation/

Status Timeline Charts
Single or multi series, they look like stacked bars (and they may have gaps), but they may repeat the same colors in the same timeline. Hard to repro with other types of charts (like Gantt).

Add option for max number of visible levels on Sunburst
Show only a given number of levels at the same time.
Keep in mind the possibility of more granular control depending on which level the user is on.
E.g display levels 1-3 by default, and show levels 4 and 5 only when the user drills into level 3.

Auto scale large data sets

Zooming and Dragging like Google Earth
i.e. zooming with wheel and dragging with mouse
an option in the chart section beneath zoomtype with name (for example) zoommode would be nice, with two options "box" (as current since you drag the mouse to make a box) or "wheel_drag" (because you use the wheel and can drag)

Option for tooltip to follow mouse cursor (height-wise)
Hello,
I've made some research and haven't found any option for tooltip to follow mouse cursor (height-wise). It would be one useful option if a series contains a lot of peaks and spikes or there are two series which values are very different and samples aren't aligned (time-wise). It could give one much smoother experience.

Improve series highlight on legend hover event (by dimming other series)
It would be useful if you could improve the series line highlight (or equivalent on other chart type) on legend hover event.
Following what is currently achieved on hover state by default, where it highlights the series line by adding line width, it should be possible to dim or gray out the other line series in the graph.
This can be easily done by using events on legend items hovering: http://jsfiddle.net/vitorbarbosa/qpByN/
however, it would be nice if it was implemented natively and for other chart types.17 votesHere’s a plugin that works with columns as well: http://jsfiddle.net/highcharts/Ha3Wr/
It works by setting the opacity on the group element. I don’t expect it to work in legacy IE though.

Add snap setting to point mouseOver event
I'd like my point mouseOver event to only fire when I hover over the point or a specified radius around a point. Currently when you hover over a series the nearest point is selected and it's mouseOver event is fired even if the mouse is not near the point. This makes it difficult to detect and handle true mouseOvers on the point.
Currently the tooltip snap setting applies to the mouseOver event even if tooltips are disabled. If it was separated out and made it's own setting then it would make event handling mouseOver events simpler.

X and Y Error bar
At the moment X axis error bar and y axis errorbar( using inverted option) are available.
It would be great to add the ability to have them both together in the same chart.

Brushing - Selecting multiple data points with the mouse
This would be a fantastic feature - the ability to select multiple data points by creating an enclosure using the mouse. e.g.Outliers could be selected in one movement and used filter other data in the app.

reanimation: Animate multiple time with setting property
It would be better if we can set the number of times the graph would animate. This would be most useful in case we have graph placed in heavy loading web page, where before the whole web page gets loaded, the animation of the graph gets completed. so that user is not able to see the graph animation. user just see the graph which is static and not animated.

Add footnote textbox immediately below chart.
I have several charts for which I need both subtitles and footnotes to clarify/explain the presentation of data (and I always use credits). When displaying on the web it is easy enough to add a paragraph under the chart, however I also need this footnote when exporting the chart. I would envision a simple text box above the credits section.
There is a similar suggestion that was closed with the suggestion to use subtitles ( http://jsfiddle.net/sGv32/5/ ), but this suggestion will obviously not work if subtitles are already being used. Also, in Chrome, the chart tries to display below the…16 votesHere’s an example of how to add a responsive and exportable text box programmatically: http://jsfiddle.net/highcharts/WwPFN/

dynamic/infinite threshold for area charts
I have a need to display an area above (or below for reversed y-axis) a line. I can certainly specify a threshold above the highest value in the series, however this breaks the yAxis ability to dynamically pick the maximum end of the range based on the data. So I suggest either (a) have an option for the yAxis to ignore the threshold when dynamically choosing the min/max of the range, or (b) having special "positive infinity" and "negative infinity" values for the threshold that would of course be ignored by the yAxis ranging.
Thanks!

Output format of eps or emf added
Printable documents benefit from vector based images. For example when embedding an image in word or powerpoint it would be more useful to have emf or eps charts than png. Unfortunately svg is not support by most non-browser software.
Is it possible to add eps or emf output to the list of available formats?
16 votesIf you can host your own export server, there would be a technical possibility of converting generated PDFs or SVGs in to those formats. I think that is the best chance.

Drill down charts that can handle more than one series at the drill down level
A top level graph to be a bar (actual values) and line (expected
values) graph for various categories. Then when you drill down into a
category, a bar (actual values) and line graph (expected) again
showing data over time for that category.16 votes
