Changing series color in highcharts dynamically

Question

I have been able to change the stroke color on a spline graph, but the points and the legend do not change color until after I hide and show the series by clicking it and then mousing over each of the points.

I have a fiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/J56hm/2/

$(function () {
    var chart = new Highcharts.Chart({
        chart: {
            renderTo: 'container'
        },
        xAxis: {
            categories: ['Jan', 'Feb', 'Mar', 'Apr', 'May', 'Jun', 'Jul', 'Aug', 'Sep', 'Oct', 'Nov', 'Dec']
        },

        series: [{
            data: [29.9, 71.5, 106.4, 129.2, 144.0, 176.0, 135.6, 148.5, 216.4, 194.1, 95.6, 54.4]        
        }]
    });

    // the button handler
    $('#button').click(function() {
        chart.series[0].color = "#FF0000";
        chart.series[0].graph.attr({ stroke: '#FF0000' });

        $.each(chart.series[0].data, function(i, point) {
           point.graphic.attr({ fill: '#FF0000' });
         });
        chart.series[0].redraw();
        chart.redraw();
    });
});​

Any idea why this is happening or a way to work around this?

Answer 1

it's simple, you can use this code

chart.series[0].options.color = "#008800";
chart.series[0].update(chart.series[0].options);
