chart.destroy() crashes if actively moving cursor over the chart during destruction. Error happens when using line and arearange on a single chart. about highcharts

I can imagine setting pointer-events: none on the chart before attempting to destroy it could workaround your issue.

Thank you @hubertkozik !
This is a pleasant workaround since it can be encapsulated in the module where the problematic chart resides in. It will be so much easier to undo once the official fix is released :)

Hi @EmigrantDolphin!
Indeed, this is a bug. You should be able to fully destroy the chart even, when any point is hovered. I've prepared a workaround for this issue. If you want to use it in your project before the official fix, all you have to do is copy-paste the IIFE function from the demo below.

I've found that this issue has the same root cause as this one: #20560 I am closing this one as a duplicate, let's continue in the older GitHub issue.
