Tooltip can be hidden dynamically through tooltip's formatter function - if it will return false, then tooltip will be hidden.

Hi,
Any tips on how to do this so the tooltip gets enabled on a certain point on the chart?
For example by passing in a condition and the index of the point in the formatter function.
Thanks for the quick answer.
This is partly what I am looking for, would it be possible to display the tooltip on that point without actually having to hover over it first?
I have a series with just one point in it, that series change with a dynamic event from outside the chart. However I want the tooltip to be always visible on that point for that series.
edit: I believe an easier solution would be to use something like dataLabels on that series.
Tooltip is generated dynamically so it can be troublesome in some situations, but here is a demo showing how to do something like that: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/tgzjwnqf/
As you said easier and more consistent solution is to show a data label for that one specific point. The label content can be adjusted with formatter callback function: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/c75L46uw/
