I have a chart like this, where I have 29 series in a legend field. And I want to make it look better, so my question is: how can I add custom multiple select instead of selection which is provided by highcharts?

Yes, it is possible. You have to set enabled legend property to false, add html select list and write your own function to switch between series.



      function chose() {
let selected = mySelect.options[mySelect.selectedIndex].text;
chart.series.forEach((series) => {
if (selected === series.name) {
if (series.visible) {
series.hide();
} else {
series.show()
}
}
})
}

btn.addEventListener('click', () => {
chose()
})


Check this example: https://jsfiddle.net/Bastss/daL7nzjr/ . Also, check this Highcharts solution to customize legend when the chart has a lot of series: http://jsfiddle.net/gh/get/library/pure/highcharts/highcharts/tree/master/samples/highcharts/legend/navigation/
