class: FocusBorder
Options for the focus border drawn around elements while navigating through them.
Class Inheritance

Copy the configuration settings from this instance to the
otherinstance.- Parameters:
other (
HighchartsMeta) – The target instance to which the properties of this instance should be copied. IfNone, will create a new instance and populate it with properties copied fromself. Defaults toNone.overwrite (
bool) – ifTrue, properties inotherthat are already set will be overwritten by their counterparts inself. Defaults toTrue.kwargs – Additional keyword arguments. Some special descendents of
HighchartsMetamay have special implementations of this method which rely on additional keyword arguments.
- Returns:
A mutated version of
otherwith new property values
Construct an instance of the class from a
dictobject.
Return a Python object representation of a Highcharts JavaScript object literal.
- Parameters:
as_str_or_file (
str) – The JavaScript object literal, represented either as astror as a filename which contains the JS object literal.allow_snake_case (
bool) – IfTrue, interpretssnake_casekeys as equivalent tocamelCasekeys. Defaults toTrue._break_loop_on_failure (
bool) – IfTrue, will break any looping operations in the event of a failure. Otherwise, will attempt to repair the failure. Defaults toFalse.
- Returns:
A Python object representation of the Highcharts JavaScript object literal.
- Return type:
HighchartsMeta
Construct an instance of the class from a JSON string.
- Parameters:
as_json_or_file – The JSON string for the object or the filename of a file that contains the JSON string.
allow_snake_case (
bool) – IfTrue, interpretssnake_casekeys as equivalent tocamelCasekeys. Defaults toTrue.
- Returns:
A Python objcet representation of
as_json.- Return type:
HighchartsMeta
Return the list of URLs from which the Highcharts JavaScript modules needed to render the chart can be retrieved.
Generate a
dictrepresentation of the object compatible with the Highcharts JavaScript library.Note
The
dictrepresentation has a property structure and naming convention that is intentionally consistent with the Highcharts JavaScript library. This is not Pythonic, but it makes managing the interplay between the two languages much, much simpler.
Return the object represented as a
strcontaining the JavaScript object literal.- Parameters:
along the way using the esprima-python library. Defaults to
False.Warning
Setting this value to
Truewill significantly degrade serialization performance, though it may prove useful for debugging purposes.
Generate a JSON string/byte string representation of the object compatible with the Highcharts JavaScript library.
Note
This method will either return a standard
stror abytesobject depending on the JSON serialization library you are using. For example, if your environment has orjson, the result will be abytesrepresentation of the string.- Parameters:
filename (Path-like) – The name of a file to which the JSON string should be persisted. Defaults to
Noneencoding (
str) – The character encoding to apply to the resulting object. Defaults to'utf-8'.for_export (
bool) – IfTrue, indicates that the method is being run to produce a JSON for consumption by the export server. Defaults toFalse.
- Returns:
A JSON representation of the object compatible with the Highcharts library.
- Return type:
Remove keys from
untrimmedwhose values areNoneand convert values that have.to_dict()methods.- Parameters:
untrimmed (
dict) – Thedictwhose values may still beNoneor Python objects.to_json (
bool) – IfTrue, will remove all keys fromuntrimmedthat are not serializable to JSON. Defaults toFalse.context (
strorNone) – If provided, will inform the method of the context in which it is being run which may inform special handling cases (e.g. where empty strings may be important / allowable). Defaults toNone.for_export (
bool) – IfTrue, indicates that the method is being run to produce a JSON for consumption by the export server. Defaults toFalse.
- Returns:
Trimmed
dict- Return type:
Convert any
EnforcedNullTypevalues inuntrimmedto'null'.- Parameters:
untrimmed (iterable) – The iterable whose members may still be
Noneor Python objects.to_json (
bool) – IfTrue, will remove all members fromuntrimmedthat are not serializable to JSON. Defaults toFalse.context (
strorNone) – If provided, will inform the method of the context in which it is being run which may inform special handling cases (e.g. where empty strings may be important / allowable). Defaults toNone.for_export (
bool) – IfTrue, indicates that the method is being run to produce a JSON for consumption by the export server. Defaults toFalse.
- Return type:
iterable
If
True, enables the focus border for the chart. Defaults toTrue.
If
True, hides the default browser-generated focus border. Defaults toTrue.
The focus border margin around the elements. Defaults to
2.- Returns:
The focus border margin around the elements.
- Return type:
numeric or
None
Style options for the focus border drawn around elements while navigating through them.
Warning
Some browsers, in addition, draw their own borders for focused elements. These automatic borders can not be styled by Highcharts.
In styled mode, the border is given the
.highcharts-focus-borderclass.- Returns:
Style options for the focus border.
- Return type:
class: FocusBorderStyle
