Interface HighchartsPoint

The second line of a timeline event's box.

A timeline draws two strings per event — name on the first line and this on the second — and on the ordinary timeline, whose x axis is hidden and whose x is a bare index, this is the only place the date appears. Highcharts uses the same key for a series-level label elsewhere; only the timeline converter reads it.

The far end of an interval — a gantt task's finish, an xrange bar's right edge. Highcharts aliases a gantt point's end onto it, so both series read the same way.

A bubble's size, as the third quantity the marker's area encodes.

Highcharts names it z and so does ScatterPoint, which reads it through zIntensityFor() -- so a bubble's size is a measurement to be announced and sonified rather than a drawing parameter (#1138).

A map marker's own position, in degrees east and degrees north.

mappoint and mapbubble place their markers from these rather than by joining to a map feature, so they are filled exactly where properties and bounds -- the two places a map region's centroid comes from -- are both empty. Measured on Highcharts 13.0.1, a mappoint declared {name, lat, lon} carries lat/lon on the point and no y at all.

See HighchartsPoint.lat.

A flag's headline, drawn inside the marker Highcharts pins to the axis.

A flags point carries this and text and no magnitude: measured, its y is absent on a flag placed against a base series and present on the next one, because it is where the marker was put rather than anything the chart measured.

A flag's body, drawn in its tooltip. See HighchartsPoint.title.

Boxplot / candlestick high value, error bar upper bound, dumbbell high.

Boxplot / candlestick low value, error bar lower bound, dumbbell low.

Boxplot first quartile.

Boxplot third quartile.

Boxplot median.

Candlestick open value.

Candlestick close value.

Percentage of total when stacking is 'percent'.

Magnitude for the series that declare pointArrayMap: ['weight'] rather than a y — a word cloud term's weight, and a sankey / dependency wheel / arc diagram link's flow.

Sankey-family and network link source node id.

Sankey-family and network link target node id.

Treemap / sunburst node id, referenced by a child's parent.

Treemap / sunburst id of this node's parent, empty at the top level.

Treemap / sunburst magnitude, and a heatmap or tilemap cell's colour value. Those series declare value in their pointArrayMap, so the number is here rather than in y — on a tilemap y is the lattice row.

The marker a bullet chart draws beside its bar.

Waterfall step that restates the total of every step so far.

Waterfall step that restates the total since the previous subtotal.

The map feature's own properties, copied off the GeoJSON / TopoJSON geometry the point was joined to. Some map collections carry a centroid here as hc-middle-lon / hc-middle-lat, in degrees.

A map point's extent in the map view's projected units, set while the series projects its geometry. midX/midY are the anchor Highcharts places the shape's label at, which is the nearest thing a map series has to a centroid.
