Help with odd tooltip text

[MartinS]

I am having some issues with this xml in that when rendered, the tooltip text is both category labels separated by a comma. 

This is the original Xml which displays, on hover, 'category name, value'.

<chart animation = '0' bgAlpha='0,0' showBorder='0' useRoundEdges='1' setAdaptiveYMin='1'  numberScaleValue='1000,1000,1000' numberScaleUnit='K,M,B'  caption = '' xAxisName='' yAxisName =''  xAxisMinValue ='0' xAxisMaxValue ='0'   yAxisMinValue ='0' yAxisMaxValue ='1000000'  showDivLineValues ='1' adjustDiv ='0' numDivLines ='4' decimals='2'  showValues='1'  showLegend ='0' legendBorderAlpha ='0'  legendBgAlpha ='0'  legendPosition ='BOTTOM' legendShadow='0'  labelDisplay ='WRAP'  seriesNameInToolTip='0' >
<categories>
<category label='Estimated levy 2010/2011'/>
<category label='Illustrative levy'/>
</categories>
<dataset seriesName='Scheme based levy' alpha='100' includeInLegend='1' color='94DB70' showValues='0'>
<set value='232000'/>
<set value='232000'/>
</dataset>
<dataset seriesName='Risk based levy'  alpha='100' includeInLegend='1' color='70DBDB' showValues='0'>
<set value='683599' />
<set value='683599' />
</dataset>

<style name='myCaptionFont' type='font' font='Verdana' size='16' color='000000' />
<style name='myXAxisTitlesFont' type='font' font='Verdana' size='13' color='000000' bold='0' />
<style name='myYAxisTitlesFont' type='font' font='Verdana' size='13' color='000000' bold='0'/>

<style name='myDataLabels' type='font' font='Verdana' color='000000' bold='0'/>
<style name='myDataValues' type='font' font='Verdana' color='000000' bold='0'/>
</definition>
<application>
<apply toObject='Caption' styles='myCaptionFont' />
<apply toObject='XAxisName' styles='myXAxisTitlesFont' />
<apply toObject='YAxisName' styles='myYAxisTitlesFont' />
<apply toObject='YAXISVALUES' styles='myYAxisValues' />
<apply toObject='DATALABELS' styles='myDataLabels' />
<apply toObject='DATAVALUES' styles='myDataValues'/>
</application>
</styles>
</chart>

This is the new code, which displays 'Series Name, Category Name, Value'

Can you please tell me which setting (or is it something to do with v3 as opposed to v2) that has caused the change in hover text?

Thanks

Martin

Hi Martin,

In case you are using FusionCharts Free, then the default format of the hoverText that would get displayes is 'category name, value'.

In case you are using FusionCharts V3, then the default format of the toolTip would get displayed as 'Series Name, Category Name, Value'.

However, in case you need to customize the text of the tooltip, please try using the "toolText" attribute.

ref.- http://www.fusioncharts.com/docs?/AttDesc/ToolTip.html

Hope this helps.

[MartinS]

Thanks.

I am using a purchased version of v3, and this is obviously a change from v2.  In this instance, the text is too long to display correctly as the chart is quite narrow and tall.  I tried with the tooltext attribute, but it seems to ignore the default number formatting - what dispalys by default is, say 68K, but when using the tooltext attribute, it shows the value as 68836.

I would expect the formatting to be consistent, and therefore can't use the tooltext unless I format the numbers to match Fusion's format.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Martin

Hi,

Could you please send us the XML codes that you are using, so that we might test it in our Lab?

Also, could you please send us the screen-shot of the issue that you are facing, as an attachment?

Awaiting your reply.

Hello,

I'm afraid, number formatting can not applied to the toolText value. It is considered as a string altogether. You have to give the formatted value itself in the toolText attribute.

OK, thanks.
