Mouseover tooltips?


User (Legacy)

Recommended Posts

Hi, yes it is possible using "Image Maps".  If you add the following code:

chart1.setImgMap(ImgMap.TITLE_TIP);

chart1.setTipMask("Value is %v");

It will show the tool tips in Internet Explorer. If you want to support

other browsers, then you need to add some javascript. There is a sample

provided in the "Misc" folder. Also, there is a section is the

documentation about it: Rendering Methods / Image Maps Generation.

Thanks a lot for the help. That worked well and I saw the examples too!

My next problem is that I have more than 1 chart on a page. The html

generated for both the charts gives the same name to the MAP tags. Hence the

mouseover for the second chart doesn't work.

Any suggestions/workarounds for this?

Eg:

For the first chart:

<MAP name="Chart1">

<AREA SHAPE=POLY COORDS="373,182,373,186,404,186,404,182" TITLE="Distis:

7.34">

<AREA SHAPE=POLY COORDS="402,173,406,173,406,184,402,184" TITLE="Distis:

7.34">

....

For the second chart:

<MAP name="Chart1">

<AREA SHAPE=POLY COORDS="51,43,51,47,57,47,57,43" TITLE="Custs: 1.59">

<AREA SHAPE=POLY COORDS="55,36,59,36,59,45,55,45" TITLE="Custs: 1.59">

Thanks,

Arun

You can work around that by setting the map name when you call the 

getHtmlTag method. This knowledge base article describes the issue and it

solution: http://support.softwarefx.com/kb/800/2/008.htm
