I know that you can use the graph "setUserToolTip" to customize the tooltip, but can you add other columns. I have a need to display additional information with the data tips. here is an example I have a chart that is a percentage by week. They would like the tooltip to to also show the values that make up the percentage as you have 75% would like to see something like

75%
150 passed
50 failed

for 1 bar and another bar may be

33%
100 passed
200 failed


anyone have any idea on how to do something like this. Its kinda like a report without have to click and drill down.

the format of the chart is HTML5 but I have another application that is PNG it would be nice of one solution would work for both.

but I at least need the HTML5 one

Thanks

In pre V8 you could *** extra info. Perhaps 8 does a similar thing ?

I alreay tried that, it does not allow for the customization of each tool tip individually. I need to show different data elements that are not show on the chart.

Bugger, I guess its time to get creative.
