Hi Ignition experts,

I am making an xy chart. It has 3 series and I want to create a tool tip on each series which has the name of series , value of x axis and value of y axis.  
The default tooltip has name of series and y- axis value

{name}:[bold]{valueY}[/]

I have tries using expression  
{name}:[bold]{valueX}[/]

but did not work.

Looking forward for your advice to achieve this.

See all the options I figured out here:

> [@Perspective XY Chart xAxes tooltip text {dateX}](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/perspective-xy-chart-xaxes-tooltip-text-datex/53580/11):
>
> For anyone wanting to format the number on a tooltip … [Tooltip cpm] Machine: [bold]{name}[/] CPM: [bold]{valueY.formatNumber("0.0")}[/] Date: [bold]{dateX.formatDate('yyyy-MMM-dd')}[/] Time: [bold]{dateX.formatDate('HH:mm EEE')}[/] More on the AM Charts website at [Formatters – amCharts 4 Documentation](https://www.amcharts.com/docs/v4/concepts/formatters/).
