Select Point Programmatically (e.g. from TableView Cell or Button) - swift

Question

I am trying to figure out a way to programmatically highlight or select a data point on a HighCharts graph.
So far I have not figured out how to pull a HIPoint out of a series, much less select that point. Also, if there is a way to get the tooltip hover to show up programmatically, rather than simply selecting the data point, that would be even better.
I have found many examples of how to do this in JavaScript, but the method of series[i].data[i].select() doesn't work in Swift, because data is [Any], and you can only set select on a HIPoint.
options.series[0].data[3].select() // doesn't work
(options.series[0].data[3] as! HIPoint).select() // crashes, because Any can't be converted into HIPoint
Data point on series[0] point[3] should be selected, or bring up the tooltip, but I can't figure out how to access the HIPoint to do anything with it at all.

Answer 1

You can add the HIPoint class object to the data:
let options = HIOptions()
let chart = HIChart()
chart.type = "line"
options.chart = chart
let title = HITitle()
title.text = "Demo chart"
options.title = title
let line = HILine()
let point = HIPoint()
point.y = 71.5
line.data = [29.9, point, 106.4, 129.2, 144.0, 176.0, 135.6, 148.5, 216.4, 194.1, 95.6, 54.4]
options.series = [line]
And refer to the point in this way:
let point = self.chartView.options.series[0].data[1] as! HIPoint
point.select()
