public class ToolTip
extends Configurable<ToolTip>

A configurable class that can be used to represent custom ToolTip options for the chart, which can then be set on the chart (via the BaseChart.setToolTip(ToolTip) method.) The tooltip appears when the user hovers over a series or point. Example usage: 

   chart.setToolTip(
     new ToolTip()
       .setBorderColor("#CC0000")
       .setShadow(true)

Method Detail

setAnimation

public ToolTip setAnimation(boolean animation)
Convenience method for setting the 'animation' option for the tool tips. Equivalent to: 

     toolTip.setOption("animation", "true");

animation - Whether to enable or disable animation of the tooltip.
Returns:
A reference to this ToolTip instance for convenient method chaining.

Convenience method for setting the 'backgroundColor' option for the tool tips. Equivalent to: 

     toolTip.setOption("backgroundColor", "#CCCCCC");
The RGB background color for the tooltip. Defaults to white with a slight opacity.

followTouchMove - 'true' to make the tooltip follow a finger on a touch device.
Returns:
A reference to this ToolTip instance for convenient method chaining.

setFormatter

public ToolTip setFormatter(ToolTipFormatter toolTipFormatter)

The HTML of the tooltip header line. Variables are enclosed by curly brackets. Available variables are point.key, series.name, series.color and other members from the point and series objects. The point.key variable contains the category name, x value or datetime string depending on the type of axis. For datetime axes, the point.key date format can be set using setXDateFormat(String). Defaults to <span style="font-size: 10px">{point.key}</span><br/>

Returns:
A reference to this ToolTip instance for convenient method chaining.
