Highcharts marked area graph
The following example demonstrates the marked area graph.
In the previous section we already know Highcharts configuration syntax. Let's look at how to configure.
Configuration
Use yAxis.plotBands properties to configure marked area. Interval range use 'from' and 'to' attribute. Color settings using the 'color' property. Label style uses 'label' property.
Configuration information:
var yAxis = {
title: {
text: 'Wind speed (m/s)'
},
min: 0,
minorGridLineWidth: 0,
gridLineWidth: 0,
alternateGridColor: null,
plotBands: [{ // Light air
from: 0.3,
to: 1.5,
color: 'rgba(68, 170, 213, 0.1)',
label: {
text: 'Light air',
style: {
color: '#606060'
}
}
}, { // Light breeze
from: 1.5,
to: 3.3,
color: 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)',
label: {
text: 'Light breeze',
style: {
color: '#606060'
}
}
}, { // Gentle breeze
from: 3.3,
to: 5.5,
color: 'rgba(68, 170, 213, 0.1)',
label: {
text: 'Gentle breeze',
style: {
color: '#606060'
}
}
}, { // Moderate breeze
from: 5.5,
to: 8,
color: 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)',
label: {
text: 'Moderate breeze',
style: {
color: '#606060'
}
}
}, { // Fresh breeze
from: 8,
to: 11,
color: 'rgba(68, 170, 213, 0.1)',
label: {
text: 'Fresh breeze',
style: {
color: '#606060'
}
}
}, { // Strong breeze
from: 11,
to: 14,
color: 'rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)',
label: {
text: 'Strong breeze',
style: {
color: '#606060'
}
}
}, { // High wind
from: 14,
to: 15,
color: 'rgba(68, 170, 213, 0.1)',
label: {
text: 'High wind',
style: {
color: '#606060'
}
}
}]
};
