which rangeSelector button is selected in highcharts

I want to know how to determine which rangeSelector button is selected in highstock.

my rangeSelector buttons:

   buttons: [{
            type: 'month',
            count: 1,
            text: '1 MONTH',
        }, {
            type: 'month',
            count: 3,
            text: '3 MONTH'
        }, {
            type: 'month',
            count: 6,
            text: '6 MONTH'
        }, {
            type: 'ytd',
            text: 'YTD'
        }, {
            type: 'year',
            count: 1,
            text: '1 YEAR'
        }, {
            type: 'all',
            text: 'ALL'
        }],

for example I click on my first rangeSelector that is 1 MONTH. I want to know if this button is selected or not.

Is there any event?

Thanks

You can get the a lot of information about the selected button directly from the rangeSelector.

For example:

var chart = $('#container').highcharts();

var selected = chart.rangeSelector.selected; // Index of selected button
var text = chart.rangeSelector.buttonOptions[selected].text; // Text of selected button
var type = chart.rangeSelector.buttonOptions[selected].type; // Type of selected button

And some other random information in buttonOptions and buttons under rangeSelector, using the selected index.

See this JSFiddle demonstration to see it in action.

You can catch setExtremes() (http://api.highcharts.com/highstock#xAxis.events.setExtremes), and then in event obejct you have access to event.rangeSelectorButton object with count, text and type property.

 xAxis: {
        events: {
            setExtremes: function(e) {
                console.log(this);
                if(typeof(e.rangeSelectorButton)!== 'undefined')
                {
                  alert('count: '+e.rangeSelectorButton.count + 'text: ' +e.rangeSelectorButton.text + ' type:' + e.rangeSelectorButton.type);
                }
            }
        }
    },
