Sort stackbar chart in highchart based on size of each stackbar

https://jsfiddle.net/vasjav1/ywspnocd
I wants to sort the stackbar chart from min to max, i.e. smallest bar should occurs first, and largest should occur at the end. I didn't find any solution being present anywhere else related to stackbar chart. there is solution present here https://www.highcharts.com/docs/advanced-chart-features/data-sorting, but it's mostly fitting for the barchart, but I couldn't fit it with the stack bar. Can someone please help me to sort stackbarchart?
Highcharts.chart('container', {
chart: {
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: 'Stacked column chart'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Apples', 'Oranges', 'Pears', 'Grapes', 'Bananas']
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Total fruit consumption'
},
stackLabels: {
enabled: true,
style: {
fontWeight: 'bold',
color: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.textColor) || 'gray'
}
}
},
legend: {
align: 'right',
x: -30,
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: 25,
floating: true,
backgroundColor: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.background2) || 'white',
borderColor: '#CCC',
borderWidth: 1,
shadow: false
},
tooltip: {
headerFormat: '<b>{point.x}</b><br/>',
pointFormat: '{series.name}: {point.y}<br/>Total: {point.stackTotal}'
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
stacking: 'normal',
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
color: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.dataLabelsColor) || 'white'
}
}
},
series: [{
name: 'John',
data: [5, 3, 4, 7, 2]
}, {
name: 'Jane',
data: [2, 2, 3, 2, 1]
}, {
name: 'Joe',
data: [3, 4, 4, 2, 5]
}]
});

You would first have to sort the data and then feed it to highcharts. For instance, if your input data can be represented as this:
{
"Apples": { "John": 5, "Jane": 2, "Joe": 3 },
"Oranges": { "John": 3, "Jane": 2, "Joe": 4 },
"Pears": { "John": 4, "Jane": 3, "Joe": 4 },
"Grapes": { "John": 7, "Jane": 2, "Joe": 2 },
"Bananas": { "John": 2, "Jane": 1, "Joe": 5 },
};
...then you could sort that, and then translate it to the argument you want to pass to highcharts:
// The original input data in one object (or array):
let data = {
"Apples": { "John": 5, "Jane": 2, "Joe": 3 },
"Oranges": { "John": 3, "Jane": 2, "Joe": 4 },
"Pears": { "John": 4, "Jane": 3, "Joe": 4 },
"Grapes": { "John": 7, "Jane": 2, "Joe": 2 },
"Bananas": { "John": 2, "Jane": 1, "Joe": 5 },
};
// Sort the data by sum of values:
let sorted = Object.entries(data).map(([cat, obj]) =>
[cat, obj, Object.values(obj).reduce((a, b) => a + b)]
).sort((a, b) => a[2] - b[2]);
// Now generate the argument for the chart:
Highcharts.chart('container', {
chart: {
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: 'Stacked column chart'
},
xAxis: {
categories: sorted.map(([cat]) => cat)
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Total fruit consumption'
},
stackLabels: {
enabled: true,
style: {
fontWeight: 'bold',
color: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.textColor) || 'gray'
}
}
},
legend: {
align: 'right',
x: -30,
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: 25,
floating: true,
backgroundColor: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.background2) || 'white',
borderColor: '#CCC',
borderWidth: 1,
shadow: false
},
tooltip: {
headerFormat: '<b>{point.x}</b><br/>',
pointFormat: '{series.name}: {point.y}<br/>Total: {point.stackTotal}'
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
stacking: 'normal',
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
color: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.dataLabelsColor) || 'white'
}
}
},
series: Object.keys(sorted[0][1]).map(name => ({
name, data: sorted.map(([_, {[name]: val}]) => val)
}))
});

<div id="container" style="min-width: 310px; height: 400px; margin: 0 auto"></div>

Currently, the data-sorting feature works only with individual series.
You can use dependent sorting as described here (example: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/3f8x7j5w/)
series: [{
id: 'mainSeries',
dataSorting: {
enabled: true
},
data: [...]
}, {
linkedTo: 'mainSeries',
data: [...]
}, {
linkedTo: 'mainSeries',
data: [...]
}, {
linkedTo: 'mainSeries',
data: [...]
}]
or sort each series individually (example: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/dsm0bz3k/), but the best way will be to use the solution from trincot's answer.

spline chart highchart to fill the color in series

I have created one highchart in jsfiddle
Highcharts.chart('container', {

Currently, I have defined different colour for the different series. But for the last date, I want to set the red colour for all the series.
Can you help me with this?
Sample image attached below.

You can use zones:
plotOptions: {
...,
areaspline: {
...,
zones: [{
value: 5.5
}, {
color: 'red',
value: 6.5
}],
},
}

Hide datalabels inside stacked column chart if we have 1 data

I need to hide the inside datalabels if there is only one dataset which is greater than zero. What I mean by dataset is
series: [{
name: 'John',
data: [5, 3, 0, 7, 2]
}, {
name: 'Jane',
data: [2, 2, 0, 2, 0]
}, {
name: 'Joe',
data: [3, 4, 3, 2, 0]
}]
If series.data[i] all are zero except one then hide the inside data labels. In the above case the 3rd and 5th dataset has 0,0,3 and 2,0,0 values only 1 non zero value so hide the inside datalabel.
Highcharts.chart('container', {
chart: {
type: 'column'
},
title: {
text: 'Stacked column chart'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Apples', 'Oranges', 'Pears', 'Grapes', 'Bananas']
},
yAxis: {
min: 0,
title: {
text: 'Total fruit consumption'
},
stackLabels: {
enabled: true,
style: {
fontWeight: 'bold',
color: ( // theme
Highcharts.defaultOptions.title.style &&
Highcharts.defaultOptions.title.style.color
) || 'gray'
}
}
},
legend: {
align: 'right',
x: -30,
verticalAlign: 'top',
y: 25,
floating: true,
backgroundColor:
Highcharts.defaultOptions.legend.backgroundColor || 'white',
borderColor: '#CCC',
borderWidth: 1,
shadow: false
},
tooltip: {
headerFormat: '<b>{point.x}</b><br/>',
pointFormat: '{series.name}: {point.y}<br/>Total: {point.stackTotal}'
},
plotOptions: {
column: {
stacking: 'normal',
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter:function() {
if(this.y != 0) {
return this.y;
}
}
}
}
},
series: [{
name: 'John',
data: [5, 3, 0, 7, 2]
}, {
name: 'Jane',
data: [2, 2, 0, 2, 0]
}, {
name: 'Joe',
data: [3, 4, 3, 2, 0]
}]
});
Here I have highlighted which datalabel should need to be remove from inside..

In the formatter function you can check if at least two of the series have y value greater than 0.
plotOptions: {
column: {
stacking: 'normal',
dataLabels: {
enabled: true,
formatter: function() {
var series = this.series.chart.series,
xPos = this.point.x,
filteredSeries;
if (this.y != 0) {
filteredSeries = series.filter((s) => (s.yData[xPos]));
return filteredSeries.length > 1 ? this.y : '';
}
}
}
}
}

Drop lines with highcharts

If I'm using a scatter plot in Highcharts, is there any way to get drop lines? Drop lines are lines that go from the point back the the x-axis like this:

You can do this with a combination column-line chart.
See it in action here:
http://jsfiddle.net/8qvy79gv/
$(function () {
$('#container').highcharts({
title: {
text: 'Combination chart'
},
xAxis: {
categories: ['Apples', 'Oranges', 'Pears', 'Bananas', 'Plums']
},
labels: {
items: [{
html: 'Total fruit consumption',
style: {
left: '50px',
top: '18px',
color: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.textColor) || 'black'
}
}]
},
series: [{
type: 'column',
name: 'Jane',
pointWidth: 2,
data: [3, 2.67, 3, 6.33, 3.33]
}, {
type: 'spline',
name: 'Average',
data: [3, 2.67, 3, 6.33, 3.33],
marker: {
lineWidth: 2,
lineColor: Highcharts.getOptions().colors[3],
fillColor: 'white'
}
}]
});
});
