Keep tooltip visible when dragging xrange.

[Luizgpp]

Hello guys.

I'm trying to keep tooltip visible when dragging xrange to display xAxis datetime.

When the mouse left from xrange on drag the tooltip disapear.


Works only on move event (mouse always in the xrange).

I need some fixed info of my xAxis datetime.

Can help me please?

Hello Luizgpp,

Welcome to our forum and thanks for contacting us with your question!

You can try to add tooltip via point.mouseOver(). Check the following demo and let me know if that was what you were looking for.

Hello magdalena,

thanks for the reply.

With scatter together not working properly.

If possible, can create a guideline when drag (or just a static box) like image? To display xRange values?

Not working using together Scatter.

Hi,

Yes, it is possible. You can for example use adataLabel with the custom text inside.

You can also use Highcharts. SVGRenderer to draw a line or label, but the implementation of the label showing depending on the dragging side could be more complicated.

Let me know if you have any further questions,

Thanks so much magdalena.

I made this: https://jsfiddle.net/75hst2k3/1/

Can improve this? or this is fine?

Thanks a lot!

Hello Luizgpp,

Yes, the implementation is fine! If you want to have this label exactly in this place, I would only change the hard-coded pixels to chart.plotLeft.

Of course, you can refine it according to your needs. Here is an example idea: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/0t1zLsg4/
