Highcharts: Reverse the X-axis and Y-axis
The following example demonstrates an area chart with reversed x-axis and y-axis.
In the previous chapters, we have learned the basic configuration syntax of Highcharts. Next, let's look at other configurations. Add the inverted attribute to chart.
Chart Configuration
Set the inverted attribute of chart to true, so that the X-axis is vertical and the Y-axis is horizontal.
var chart = {
type: 'area',
inverted: true
};
