I was wondering if how to change the tooltip location when a data point on a chart is close to the edge of the screen? Currently the tooltip will get cut off if the point is too close to the edge and I would like to make it so that does not happen.

I agree this would be useful. I have run into the same issue and have not seen a way to prevent it

I am running into the same issue. Version 8.1.37 (b2024013011). My tooltips in the beginning of the canvas looks like this

Is there an option I am missing to make all tooltip readable?
