title: Highcharts - set maximum range for yAxis but keep axis dynamic within that range
body: <p>First of all, apologies for the post title, but I failed to come up with a better one to describe my problem.</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way in highcharts to set the maximum value for the yAxis to, say, 1000 (i.e. via <code>max: 1000</code>) but keep it dynamic if the maximum values are lower than the set maximum? As an example, let's say we have two datasets. </p>
  
  <p>The first one ranges between 0 and 1500. Here any data >1000 should not be displayed. Setting <code>yAxis: { max: 1000 }</code> does the trick.</p>
  
  <p>Now we update the data series with the second data set which ranges between 0 and 48. Now <code>max: 1000</code> causes the line to virtually hug the x-axis. So here it would be best if Highcharts dynamically adjusts the yAxis to range from 0-50.</p>
  
  <p>Here's a fiddle to illustrate the problem: <a href="http://jsfiddle.net/PanicJ/s7fZu/1/">http://jsfiddle.net/PanicJ/s7fZu/1/</a></p>
  
  <p>P.S.
  Just noticed the <a href="http://api.highcharts.com/highcharts#yAxis.minRange"><code>minRange</code></a> setting in Highcharts. Now, why isn't there a <code>maxRange</code> equivalent? Or is there?</p>
