I'm using the Perspective XYChart and when I modify the series tooltip values, they don't seem to have any affect on what is displayed. I removed the default {name} from the tooltip text leaving only [bold]{valueY}[/] but it's still displaying the {name} value. Also, it seems to be showing the correct point value but the wrong series name. I've even tried disabling it and it still shows up.
Version is 8.1.16
You need to use the bullet tooltips. I have documented a few tips and tricks in this post:
They couldn't have buried that one any deeper. For the record, it's under series -> line -> appearance -> bullets -> tooltip.
The XY Chart component is based off of amCharts’ XY Chart. see tooltip documentation here.
You can add other properties to the XY Chart that correspond to the amCharts XY Chart and they’ll work. In this instance, adding tooltipTextto the root of your series seems to work for displaying series tooltips. I haven’t finished reading the amCharts documentation to see if there’s a better way, but this seems to do fine.
