box and Wisker Charts in HighCharts

[dhanley]

Hi
We a trying to do box and wisker charts using HighCharts, can anyone point us in the right direction.
We have a table of data 100 columns and 8 rows , we need a box and wisker chart above the table one for each column, using the 8 data in each column.
Please let us know of any suggestions.

thanks
DH

Hi, sorry for late reply. Does this example of bullet graph: http://jsfiddle.net/jlbriggs/THA22/3/ or candlestick: http://highcharts.com/stock/demo/candlestick is something what you're looking for?

According to the roadmap ( http://www.highcharts.com/support/roadmap ), support for box plots will be added in version 3.0 slated for this coming winter.

A bullet graph, while very useful, is not related in any meaningful way to a box plot.
The candlestick is pretty close, but missing a couple of key features.
It is possible to modify the source code, copying and building on the candlestick or the OHLC to create a new boxplot type while we wait for the official support...

I put an example together using the renderer. It works for us, also the export to an image does not seem to work. http://jsfiddle.net/UyxpX/5/
Would be great to have it fully supported by highchart.
