DxPieChart<T>.ShowTooltip(T, String) Method

Shows the tooltip for the specified series point.

Namespace: DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly: DevExpress.Blazor.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

public void ShowTooltip(
    T point,
    string seriesName
)

Parameters

Name Type Description
point T

The series point for which the tooltip is shown.

seriesName String

The series name.

Remarks

Add a DxChartTooltip object to chart markup and set the DxChartTooltip.Enabled property to true to enable tooltip functionality.

DxPieChart allows you to change tooltip visibility in code. Call ShowTooltip method overloads to show the tooltip for the specified series point. To hide the tooltip, call the HideTooltip() method.

When you call ShowTooltip method overloads, DxPieChart raises the TooltipShowing event. In the event handler, you can get information about the tooltip and specify whether it should appear.

The following code snippet displays custom Show Tooltip and Hide Tooltip buttons that show and hide the tooltip for the specified series point:
