Line Graph

Line graphs are used to show changes in data over time. The default height of line graph is 400px and can be changed. The default height is in pixel units, but can also use percentage string (percentage would be that of the width. For example, height:"50%" would mean that the height is 50% of the width). This allows for preserving the aspect ratio across responsive sizes. 

For more information, see: highcharts/chart.height.

Legend Position

Prop

layout determines the position of the legend items
layout: proximate will place the legend items as close as possible to the graphs they're representing. It will also determine whether to place the legend above/below or on the side of the plot area, if the legend is in a corner.

x offsets the legend relative to its horizontal alignmnet. Negative x moves it to the left, positive x moves it to the right

y offsets the legend relative to its vertical alignmnet. Negative y moves it up, positive y moves it down.

Code Example

import React from 'react'
import { LineGraph, Title } from '../..'

const data = [{
  name: 'Installation',
  data: [43934, 52503, 57177, 69658, 97031, 119931, 137133, 154175],
