I have a composed chart displaying specific data using two stacked area plots (with one hidden to represent an interquartile range) and an overlaid line plot for a time series.
Below is my component configuration:
JSX<ResponsiveChartContainer xAxis={[ { //... disableLine: true, disableTicks: true, //... }, ]} yAxis={[yAxis]} // similarly defined series={[ { type: 'line', id: `StateData-${energy}-25`, yAxisId: yAxis.id, // ... }, { type: 'line', id: `StateData-${energy}-75`, yAxisId: yAxis.id, // ... }, { type: 'line', id: `tract-${energy}`, yAxisId: yAxis.id, // ... }, ]} {// ...} > <AreaPlot /> <LinePlot /> <ChartsXAxis axisId="date" /> <EnergyChartYAxis selectedChartType={selectedChartType} energy={energy} /> <ChartsLegend direction="row" position={{ horizontal: 'middle', vertical: 'top' }} /> <ChartsAxisHighlight axisHighlight="line" /> { // this doesn't do anything } <ChartsTooltip trigger="axis" /> <ChartsGrid vertical /> <ChartsGrid horizontal /> </ResponsiveChartContainer>
The tooltip appears correctly, but the vertical dotted line that should be rendered by ChartsAxisHighlight is missing. I have tried various AI suggestions, reviewed the MUI code, and even attempted placing the ChartsAxisHighlight component directly in my chart without success.
What am I missing or misconfiguring to ensure the axis highlight displays as expected?

You’re not missing the axis highlight component—it’s working as designed. In your configuration you’ve disabled the x‑axis line (and ticks) by setting properties like disableLine: true. The vertical dotted line “highlight” is tied to that axis (or its pointer) for its reference and can’t render if the axis itself is hidden. In other words, if you turn off the axis line, you also turn off the visual cue that the highlight is supposed to follow.
To get the dotted vertical highlight to appear, try one of the following:
Once you allow the axis line or provide the proper configuration for a “cursor” style pointer, the ChartsAxisHighlight feature will have something to attach to and should render as expected.

You are on the right track with using ChartsAxisHighlight
. But it should be this instead:
XML<ChartsAxisHighlight x='line'/>
