Highcharts Area Chart with Ranges and Lines

Highcharts Area Chart

The following example demonstrates an area chart using intervals and lines.

We have already learned the basic configuration syntax of Highcharts in the previous chapters. Now let's take a look at other configurations. Modify the type attribute in chart.

Chart Configuration

Set the chart's type attribute to "arearange". The chart.type describes the chart type. The default value is "line".

var chart = {
   type: 'arearange'  
};
