How to suppress "Plot Area" tooltip?

[User (Legacy)]

I'm using ChartFX Client-Server, and would like to suppress the tooltip that

says "Plot Area" when the mouse is positioned over the chart.  I like the

tooltips for data points, but the "Plot Area" tooltip is likely to be

confusing to my users.

I've searched the Help files for Tooltip, but can't find a property that

sets the "Plot Area" tooltip.  In my chart, I have ShowTips set to True, and

the chart's ToolTipText is blank.

You can turn on/off tooltips, but you can not turn on/off a tooltip for a

specific area independently.

What you can do is capture the GetTip event and return an empty string for

those areas you don't want.

For information on GetTip please check the docs.

Thanks!  That worked OK, with one unusual issue.  I use Visual Basic 6, and

setting Chart.hText = vbNullString (the vb intrinsic null string constant)

did not work.  When I set Chart.hText = "" it worked OK.
