I have a Highcharts area chart, with string categories on the X-Axis.
I want the chart to start at the left most edge of the x-axis and end at the rightmost edge, without any padding. In the image below, the red arrows show the spacing that I want to get rid of. Without text categories this is easily achievable, but with I just can’t seem to figure it out.
Any help appreciated, thanks.

    You can achieve the desired result by redefining labels.formatter on axis. jsFiddle is here.

    But if you want to keep it simple and pass axis.categories in traditional way (I think that this is a way more better), I suggest you to use a tiny hack and redefine an Axis.init function. Try it on jsFiddle.

    UPD: I’ve updated my previous fiddle a little. Check it out. I think that you can combine all my solution to get a nicer one.
