I am trying to use the tooltipShowingevent to override the tooltip displayed when the mouse hovers over a chart column. A valid HTML string is returned to tooltip from GetChartTooltip (a function I created), however, the column tooltip is still the default tooltip defined within Infragistics rather than my modified tooltip. How can I get my custom tooltip to be displayed?
tooltipShowing: function (evt, ui) {// Programmatically set the tooltipvar tooltip = GetChartTooltip(ui);if (tooltip != '') {ui.element.tooltip().text(tooltip);}}
Hello Ray,
Could you please try to take that action on the tooltipShown event handler.
Please let me know if this approach fixes your problem?
Actually, the results were worse. When displayed, the tooltip included the text for all of the tags I used to create the tooltip. For example, my tooltip included a '<div>'. So '<div>' was what I saw in the displayed tooltip. For example, rather than seeing '123', I saw '<div>123</div>'.
I couldn't see where the problem really is.
I've built your example and everything went well, even the display of the tooltip.
You can see the result from the attached screenshot
Today I wasn't able to look closely at your matter and I apologize for this.I will make everything possible to give you some response until tomorrow.
Thanks for you patience!
I checked my attachment and my changes are there. As I said, they were small changes. I replaced the template:
<script id="tooltipTemplate" type="text/x-jquery-tmpl"> <div id="tooltip" class="ui-widget-content ui-corner-all"> <div style="margin:10px;color:#7446B9"> <span id="year">${item.Year}</span> <span id="tooltipValue">Population: ${item.Canada}</span> </div> </div></script>
with
<script id="seriesTemplate" type="text/x-jquery-tmpl"> <div id="seriesTooltip"></div> </script>
and updated the HTML for seriesTooltip. All I did was make the template more generic.
Actually, I couldn't manage to find any differences from the sample I've sent you. Respectively I haven't found any errors.
Could you please make sure that you are attaching the right example.
I'm looking forward for you sample.
Your solution works. My real problem was that I had an error in the new HTML replacing the tooltip. I also simplified the example a little bit. The script for the tooltip can be somewhat simpler. The modified example is attached.
