GWT Highcharts - Spline chart with Symbols



We have already seen the configuration used to draw this chart in Highcharts Configuration Syntax chapter. Let us now consider the following example to further understand a Spline chart with Symbols.

Configurations

Add symbols to a series of a chart using the marker.symbol property. It can be a preconfigured symbol like 'square', 'diamond' or a url to an image. Marker can be added at any point in the data of series as well.

chart.createSeries()  
   .setName("Tokyo")  
   .setPlotOptions(  
      new SplinePlotOptions()  
      .setMarker(  
         new Marker()  
            .setSymbol(Marker.Symbol.SQUARE)  
      )  
   )
