<ul>

<li>Added new options set, <a href="https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/palette">palette</a>, making it easy to apply general design colors for light and dark mode. This replaces the former Adaptive theme.</li>

<li>Added support for providing data as <a href="https://api.highcharts.com/class-reference/Highcharts.DataTable">DataTable</a> through the new options <a href="https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/dataTable"><code>dataTable</code></a>, <a href="https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/series.line.dataTable"><code>series.dataTable</code></a> and <a href="https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/series.line.dataMapping"><code>series.dataMapping</code></a>.</li>

<li>Updated gauge and solid-gauge series, including panes and radial y-axis, with more sensible defaults and major design facelift, making it easier for implementers and AI agents to create great looking gauges from minimal configuration.</li>

<li>Refactored the data sorting functionality into a separate module, in order to simplify and reduce weight on the core script file.</li>

<li>Improved entrance and exit animation of points and data labels when they are dynamically created, destroyed or zoomed in or out of view.</li>

<li>Added the experimental <a href="https://api.highcharts.com/class-reference/Highcharts.Loader">autoload</a> feature, loading required modules based on the chart configuration.</li>

<li>Added customizable <code>boundary</code> ticks for <code>datetime</code> axes, see the docs for <a href="https://www.highcharts.com/docs/chart-concepts/axes#datetime">Axes → Datetime</a> → Boundary ticks on datetime axis.</li>

<li>Added new setting, <code>contrast</code>, for <code>dataLabels.backgroundColor</code>. Allows enhancing readability with a plain, semi-transparent background color. Extended the <code>dataLabels.distance</code> option to apply to more series types than previously.</li>

<li>Added new option, <a href="https://api.highcharts.com/chart.plotBorderRadius"><code>chart.plotBorderRadius</code></a>.</li>

<li>Added new options set, <a href="https://api.highcharts.com/highcharts/tooltip.header"><code>tooltip.header</code></a>, for better control over the header design i split tooltips.</li>

<li>Default pane layout and design for gauges and polar charts has gone through a major facelift. See <a href="https://www.highcharts.com/samples/highcharts/pane/v12-design-compatibility">v12 pane design compatibility</a> to see what&#39;s changed.</li>

<li>Solid gauge <code>radius</code> and <code>innerRadius</code>, when given as numeric values, defined on series or point level, no longer resolve as percents, but as pixels. To set it to a percent, use a percentage string like <code>radius: &#39;50%&#39;</code>.</li>

<li>The <code>dataSorting</code> feature now requires the <code>modules/data-sorting.js</code> file.</li>

<li>Default data label positions have changed slightly. Previously, the distance to the point or column was determined by <code>padding</code> and adjusted by <code>x</code> and <code>y</code>. Introduced new option, <code>dataLabels.distance</code>, in order to allow backgrounds with padding without touching the point.</li>
