How can I set the toolTipPosition without using the categoryToolTipLayer? I want it to always align itself at the top so that it will display everything that it needs to, but right now it display slightly below and to the right of the cursor.
Hello rsim,
After looking into this and doing some research, it has been determined that using of Category Tooltip Layer with series of type "stackedColumn" is a new product idea. I would recommend you to log it at http://ideas.infragistics.com, the Product Ideas site allows you to suggest new product features, new functionalities in existing products and controls, and even request new controls and products altogether. Members of the Infragistics Community then vote for the features and suggestions they want to see added to the products, resulting in the most popular features bubbling up to the top. When planning new releases, our Product Management team will look at the most popular features and use your feedback to prioritize upcoming work.
It also does not seem to play well with tooltipTemplates. It wants to fix the width of the tooltip to that of the column.
What we need is a toolTipPosition attribute for the chart....not with the categoryToolTipLayer.
I can't seem to make this work on a Stacked Column Series.
Hello rsimm,
Thank you for contacting us.
As I understand you want to change the tooltip position of igDataChart. My suggestion is to use toolTipPosition option, as it is shown in our online sample below:
http://igniteui.com/data-chart/category-tooltip-layer
Code snippet:
$("#tooltipPos").change(function (e) { var position = $(this).val(); $("#chart").igDataChart("option", "series", [{ name: "categorySeries", toolTipPosition: position }]); });
Looking forward to hearing from you.
