Problem/Motivation

Hello,

I am trying to use the solid-gauge chart from HighCharts in Drupal 8.9.1 with PHP version 7.3.12. I have installed the library by running composer install.

Steps to reproduce

Running composer.

composer require --prefer-dist highcharts/highcharts:6.1.0 highcharts/more:6.1.0 highcharts/solid-gauge:6.1.0 highcharts/exporting:6.1.0 highcharts/export-data:6.1.0 highcharts/accessibility:6.1.0 highcharts/3d:6.1.0

Gathering patches for dependencies. This might take a minute.
  - Installing highcharts/solid-gauge (6.1.0): Downloading (100%)

When i look in /web/library/ i see that the folder "highcharts_solid-gauge" with the js-file is added.

Now i expect to be able to select solid-gauge in the configuration (/admin/config/content/charts). But it still only shows the default chart options including 'gauge'. No 'solid-gauge'.

My question; what do i have to do to be able to switch from gauge to solid-gauge?

Regards,
Gerard de Vos

    Charts does not have the solid gauge option for Highcharts. Charts 8.x-3.x is legacy; bug fixes only, no new features. Everyone is encouraged to migrate to Charts 5.1.x.
