using annotation in chart

[thaison316]

Have anyone able to use annotation within charts like one of these: I looked around, when not using angular, they said we need the annotation.js but can't figure out if this is part of this lib or not. Please help.

I'm facing the exact same issue. I'm configuring the annotations property according to high charts docs but I don't get any annotations in my chart nor do i get an error

Hey There -

I was able to get this working after finding the right syntax to enable Annotations.

I am running angular=4.4.7 / angular2-highcharts=0.5.5 / highcharts=6.1.1

In your app.module or module you want to start using annotations add the following...

import { ChartModule  } from 'angular2-highcharts';
import * as Highcharts from 'highcharts';   //  *** NEW ***
import * as Annotations from 'highcharts/modules/annotations.src';   //  *** NEW ***
...
export class AppModule {
  constructor() {
    Annotations(Highcharts);      //  *** NEW ***
  }
}

At this point you have enabled the ability to add "annotations". Like the jsFiddle example, make sure to put the "id" in the series element.

Good luck!
