Highcharts Pie charts get the selected pie id

highcharts

Solution

You want the event handling on the point config, not the series. Each wedge is a point in a single series:

   var data = [{ name: 'One', y: 10, id: 0 },{ name: 'Two', y: 10, id: 1 }];

   // some other code here...

   series:[
      {
         "data": data,
          type: 'pie',
          animation: false,
          point:{
              events:{
                  click: function (event) {
                      alert(this.x + " " + this.y);
                  }
              }
          }          
      }
   ],

Full running code:

var chart;
point = null;
$(document).ready(function () {

    var data = [{ name: 'One', y: 10, id: 0 },{ name: 'Two', y: 10, id: 1 }];
    
    chart = new Highcharts.Chart(
    {
       series:[
          {
             "data": data,
              type: 'pie',
              animation: false,
              point:{
                  events:{
                      click: function (event) {
                          alert(this.id);
                      }
                  }
              }          
          }
       ],
       "chart":{
          "renderTo":"container"
       },
    });
});

How do I get Highcharts Pie charts get the selected pie id ? I have a data array ``` var data= { name: series[i], y: Data[i],id:categorydata[i] }; ``` Render the chart ``` new Highcharts.Chart({ .... .... series: [{ type: 'pie', name: 'Category', data: data }] }); ``` How do I get the id of the selected pie. I am doing this in ``` plotOptions: { series: { animation: false, events:{ click: function (event) { var point = this; //How do I Access the id??????? alert('value: ' + this.series); } } }, ```
