Good morning,
talking about the series tooltip of the XY Chart in Perspective, I wonder if is possible to set its position to top/bottom instead of left/right as it works by default.
I use the XY chart as horizontal bar chart and when the tooltip shows up I'm not able to see that specific bar anymore because is cover by it.
Thank you.
Any help about this?
Are you wanted to rotate the tooltips? You can use the rotate property under style to rotate the tooltips to be vertical instead of horizontal.
Or are you trying to do something else? A screenshot of your issue might help.
In my horizontal bar chart, the tooltips currently appear to the right/left of the bars. This is causing an issue where the tooltip for one bar overlaps and hides the adjacent bars, as shown in the screenshot. I would like to change the tooltip position so that it appears either above or below the cursor/bar, instead of to the right.
Could you please let me know if you have any new progress? I've also encountered this issue.
No updates, I apologize. We are using it this way, but it's not clearly visible/easy to see. We hope someone can help.
I get your frustration tooltips covering bars on horizontal charts can be annoying. By default, Perspective only lets tooltips appear left/right, so top/bottom isn’t built-in. You could try adjusting chart padding/margins, using a smaller tooltip, or creating a custom tooltip if scripting is allowed. That usually helps make the bars visible while hovering.
Tooltip orientation (left, right, up, down) is a feature of AM Charts on which this component is based. The https://www.amcharts.com/docs/v5/concepts/common-elements/tooltips/#Orientation documentation shows how to set that in a native implementation.
I don't know if it can be controlled via Perspective's interface.
I try also up or down without success, it looks like Perspective doesn’t support it.
