We published a new project on our GitHub profile – a plugin for the Highcharts charting library, called Legend Highlighter, which adds the ability to highlight a specific data series on a chart.
The plugin was created as part of our work on a project that uses Highcharts, and it was initially supposed to only add a simple “slice out” effect for pie charts. We then extended it to support other chart types, making it more flexible and useful. We created a page with a few examples of how the plugin works with various charts (based on the demo charts provided by Highcharts) – go ahead and take a look.
The source code of the plugin is published under the MIT license, so feel free to use it any way you like, and fork it. We’re also looking forward to your feedback.
