Highcharts Area Spline
# Highcharts Area Spline Chart
[Highcharts Area Chart](#)
The following example demonstrates an area spline chart.
We have already learned the basic configuration syntax of Highcharts in previous chapters. Next, let's look at other configurations. Modify the `type` attribute in the `chart` configuration.
### chart Configuration
Set the `type` attribute of the `chart` to `areaspline`. `chart.type` describes the chart type. The default value is "line".
var chart = { type: 'areaspline' };
### Example
File name: highcharts_area_spline.htm
$(document).ready(function() { var chart = { type: 'areaspline' }; var title = { text: 'Average fruit consumption during one week' }; var subtitle = { style: { position: 'absolute', right: '0px', bottom: '10px' } }; var legend = { layout: 'vertical', align: 'left', verticalAlign: 'top', x: 150, y: 100, floating: true, borderWidth: 1, backgroundColor: (Highcharts.theme && Highcharts.theme.legendBackgroundColor) || '#FFFFFF' }; var xAxis = { categories: ['Monday','Tuesday','Wednesday','Thursday','Friday','Saturday','Sunday'] }; var yAxis = { title: { text: 'Fruit units' } }; var tooltip = { shared: true, valueSuffix: ' units' }; var credits = { enabled: false } var plotOptions = { areaspline: { fillOpacity: 0.5 } }; var series= [{ name: 'John', data: [3, 4, 3, 5, 4, 10, 12] }, { name: 'Jane', data: [1, 3, 4, 3, 3, 5, 4] } ]; var json = {}; json.chart = chart; json.title = title; json.subtitle = subtitle; json.xAxis = xAxis; json.yAxis = yAxis; json.legend = legend; json.plotOptions = plotOptions; json.credits = credits; json.series = series; $('#container').highcharts(json); });
