public class Credits
extends Configurable<Credits>

A configurable class that can be used to represent custom credits options for the chart, which can then be set on the chart (via the BaseChart.setCredits(Credits) method.) Highchart by default puts a credits label in the lower right corner of the chart. This can be changed using these options. Example usage:

   chart.setCredits(
     new Credits()
       .setText("Presented by Snoopy")
       .setHref("http://www.peanuts.com/")
   );
