Added Organization Chart series type.
Added Item Chart series type for visualizing item counts and parliaments.
Added Dependency Wheel series type.
Added Timeline series type.
Added 3D Pyramid and 3D Funnel series types.
Accessibility - improved experience for screen reader users, support for dynamic data and drilldown, as well as support for voice input software.
Added inactive states to series and points, allowing other series to be dimmed when the user is hovering the data or legend. To bring back the old series dimming behavior, set plotOptions.series.states.inactive.opacity to 1.
Added levels to sankey series.
Added annotation.events: add, afterUpdate and remove.
Added full screen capabilities to exporting module.
Added option series.treemap.events.setRootNode.
Added option xAxis.margin to ensure a distance between multiple axes on the same side.
Added options plotOptions.sankey.borderWidth and sankey.borderColor for sankey nodes.
Added force directed algorithm for improved packing of packed bubble charts.
Added support for nested packed bubbles.
Added Verlet integration for network graphs. Generally improved network graph algorithms.
Added data labels to links in network graphs.

UPGRADE NOTES EXPAND COLLAPSE

Changed default X axis tickWidth option. Now tick marks are not rendered by default on category axes. Set the tickWidth to 1 to bring back the old behaviour.
Renamed plotOptions.treemap.drillUpButton to traverseUpButton.
The new inactive state makes other items dim when hovering a series. To bring back the old series dimming behavior, set plotOptions.series.states.inactive.opacity to 1.
