CategoryChart tooltips

Post by Ted Hill » Thu Jan 21, 2010 6:43 pm

I have a CategoryChart which uses StandardCategoryToolTipGenerator to generate its tooltips.

For the user to activate the tooltip, the mouse needs to be almost exactly vertically aligned with the category item on the x-axis.

Is there some setting that would allow the mouse to be a few more pixels to either side of the category item and still activate the tooltip?

(Some users are complaining that there are no tooltips. Then I show them that if they are very careful about positioning the mouse, they will get a tooltip.)
