Reposting the query again as the code snippet got dropped because of special characters.

I understand that by default the tooltip for a data item is "Series Name, Category Name, value". What I would like to have is "Category Name, Value" +"custom messsage".

For doing this I can do something like this in my java/javascript:

for(i=0; i< maxitems; i++){
setBuffer += "set value=" + set[i] + " tooltext=" + category[i] + " , " +set[i] + ", " + myCustomMessage + " />" ;
}

Assuming that I store all my category elements in a data structure like array.

However in some cases I don't have direct access to category[] , and in cases where I have a huge number of category elements, it may not be required to store them in array for this reference. so I was just wondering if it is possible to refer to category element something like $categoryLabel as follows.

for(i=0; i< maxitems; i++){
setBuffer += "set value= " + set[i] + " tooltext= $categoryName , " +set[i] + ", " + myCustomMessage + " /> " ;
}

hi,

you can only set tooltext using hoverText from category element in FREE version.

Hi,
I would like to customize the too tip in a multi series chart in such a away that I want to have Category, value and some more customized info . When I try to set the toolText='something' in the datset's set tags, how can I refer to the categoryname?
