ToolTipOptions	A ToolTipOptions object descendant which represents tooltip options on a diagram.

Remarks

Before the tooltip customization, make sure the ChartControl.ToolTipEnabled property is set to true.

Use the ToolTipOptions property to get access to the tooltip settings allowing you to specify the tooltip position on a chart (ToolTipOptions.ToolTipPosition, ToolTipOptions.ActualToolTipPosition), as well as define at which level a tooltip should be shown: at the level of series points and a particular series (ToolTipOptions.ShowForPoints, ToolTipOptions.ShowForSeries).

In addition, you can use properties of the ChartToolTipController object to customize the tooltip appearance on a chart (e.g., ChartToolTipController.ShowBeak, ChartToolTipController.ShowShadow) and define the tooltip behavior (e.g, ChartToolTipController.CloseOnClick, ChartToolTipController.OpenMode, ChartToolTipController.InitialDelay).
