Highcharts: Set y Axis Max and Min dynamically, and not at creation

Question

Short question : Is there a way to set min/max in Highcharts AFTER the chart has been created. I am aware of intial setup like y: {min: 100,max: 200} at the chart initialization but I want to change max/min later on dynamically.

Answer 1

I guess setExtremes is the best way to go about it. Syntax should be: chart.yAxis[0].setExtremes(100,300);

If one wants to just set minimum then chart.yAxis[0].setExtremes(100,null); worked for me.

Answer 2

we can also use update method

chart.yAxis[0].update({
    max: 100
}); 

chart.xAxis[0].update({
    max: 150
});
