Highcharts Area Spline Chart
The following example demonstrates an area spline chart.
We have already learned about the basic configuration syntax of Highcharts in previous chapters. Now, let's look at other configurations. Modify the type
property in the chart
.
Chart Configuration
Set the type
property of the chart
to areaspline
. The chart.type
describes the type of the chart. The default value is "line".
var chart = {
type: 'areaspline'
};
