• getStyle

  public Style getStyle()

  Specified by:

  getStyle in class AbstractDataLabels

  See Also:

  • setStyle(Style)

• setStyle

  public void setStyle(Style style)

  Styles for the label. The default color setting is "contrast", which is a pseudo color that Highcharts picks up and applies the maximum contrast to the underlying point item, for example the bar in a bar chart. The textOutline is a pseudo property that applies an outline of the given width with the given color, which by default is the maximum contrast to the text. So a bright text color will result in a black text outline for maximum readability on a mixed background. In some cases, especially with grayscale text, the text outline doesn't work well, in which cases it can be disabled by setting it to "none".

  Defaults to: {"color": "contrast", "fontSize": "11px", "fontWeight": "bold", "textOutline": "1px contrast" }

  setStyle in class AbstractDataLabels
