I was wondering if anyone has seen an example or can tell me if I am on the correct track regarding datatips.
What I am trying to achieve is create a line chart with two data series, thus two lines. The chart height will be low, like Edward Tuft's sparklines (google it if you aren't familiar). When the user mouses over the chart I want to send both data point of data for both the series to a datatip function. I then want nothing to show up for the datatip (blank and no gray lines forking out), as I am sending that hitData info to a function that displays the data series points on another panel. So far I have created a custom dataTipRenderer, that is empty, but I still get the gray lines forking out point to my empty/blank renderer. So it looks like a gray line sticking out to nothing. Second issue is that I always want both series to send their data to my datatip function. Sometimes it sends both if the mouse pointer happens to touch both lines. I was thinking if I make a custom mouse pointer for just the chart that is a long vertical line it will always touch both data points, which solves that problem. Unless anyone has another idea? The second issue with the gray forking lines I can't seem to get rid of those little suckers. Any ideas?
