Daylight Saving causing problems with highcart
up vote

We are using a HighCharts to display some data with the x-axis being a DateTime; we need useUTC to be set to false Highcharts.setOptions({ global: { useUTC: false } });
When daylight saving stopped (OCT 27) we discovered that the hour 23:00-00:00 was repeated twice : with the second one displaying empty data. All the following data are shifted one hour forward.
Is there an easy way to handle this in HighCharts?

That's the problem with daylight savings - if you don't use UTC you'll have two hours of the day that are the same. Not a HighCharts problem, just a result of trying to visualize that data.

Your mistake is not using UTC. That means you will have to deal with timezones, rather then leaving it to he (propably better) existing code. And that way lies madness: youtube.com/watch?v=-5wpm-gesOY My advise is to always store, retrieve and send datetimes in UTC.
