Hi All,

Has anyone used the tooltipn Template Macro to access a data element to be included in a customized tooltip using version 8.201M charting?

The documentation says the Macro name is tooltipn with a definition - The nth field in the tooltip attribute category.

FYI - the following macro ... {{series_label}} ... brings back the Series label but I can't seem to get the tooltipn macro to work.

If anyone has an example ... I would like to see it.

Thanks

Ahh ... Figured it out.

I had a NOPRINT on the field I was using for the BUCKET=tooltip as below ...

TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N3, BUCKET=tooltip, $

So now the macro {{tooltip1}} displays the contents of column N3

Cheers

Could you please show a working example of this technique? It looks interesting to me. Thanks.

Here's a pie chart using the CAR file. I created a custom tooltip for series 1 and 2. You can see what it does automatically with the tooltips on the other series.

 GRAPH FILE CAR
SUM DEALER_COST AS 'Dealer Cost'
COMPUTE MY_SERIES/A10 = COUNTRY;
COMPUTE MY_VALUE/A10  = FPRINT(DEALER_COST, 'D7', 'A10');
COMPUTE MY_PCT/A8     = FPRINT(PCT.DEALER_COST, 'P6.2%', 'A8');
BY COUNTRY AS 'Country'
ON GRAPH PCHOLD FORMAT JSCHART
ON GRAPH SET VZERO OFF
ON GRAPH SET HTMLENCODE ON
ON GRAPH SET GRAPHDEFAULT OFF
ON GRAPH SET EMBEDHEADING ON
ON GRAPH SET LOOKGRAPH PIE
ON GRAPH SET AUTOFIT ON
ON GRAPH SET STYLE *
INCLUDE=IBFS:/FILE/IBI_HTML_DIR/ibi_themes/Warm.sty,$
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N1, BUCKET=color, $
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N2, BUCKET=measure, $
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N3, BUCKET=tooltip, $
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N4, BUCKET=tooltip, $
TYPE=DATA, COLUMN=N5, BUCKET=tooltip, $
*GRAPH_JS_FINAL
"series": [
	{"series": 1, 
		"tooltip": 'ToolTip1: {{tooltip1}}<br>ToolTip2: {{tooltip2}}<br>ToolTip3: {{tooltip3}}'
	},
	{"series": 2, 
		"tooltip": '{{tooltip1}}<br>${{tooltip2}} ({{tooltip3}})'
	},
]
*END
ENDSTYLE
END

Thanks. I just realized that must be a new feature in 8.2. I'm on 8.105 and it didn't recognize the GRAPH_JS_FINAL statement. Nice to know what's possible in 8.2 though.
