Large Heat Map questions

[quim831]

Hello

I've 2 questions regarding Heat maps (Large Heat maps):
1) What are the differences to create a Heat map using map.js and heatmap.js ?

2) Click event - When creating a Large Heat Map how to associate a click event to return value information of each point?

Hi, quim831!

1) map.js module is much bigger and has more options with more map series. heatmap.js is just a piece of map.js module, but when it comes to a heatmap series only, the code is the same.

2) Without a boost module, it's pretty simple:

Code: Select all

point: {
        	events: {
          	click() {
            	console.log(this)
            }
          }
        },

The problem starts when the boost module is enabled - the chart is rendered differently. Related issue from GitHub: https://github.com/highcharts/highcharts/issues/4052.

Best regards!
