How to get rangeSelector to work with HighCharts

Question

Can I use HighStocks rangeSelector with HighCharts? If not, is there any other method someone could suggest? It looks like this useful feature will be available for both libraries.

Answer 3

As far as I know, a range selector is not something you can use with HighCharts. You must use HighStock to get this functionality.

Highstock processes time data, so the range selector is available to you. HighCharts does not process time data so well (it can be done, but it is less flexible). Since most HighCharts features can be found in HighStock, you are probably better off using HighStock for any application requiring a range selection.
