I would like to have the bar labels in a chart to be the series name,
but the mouseover tooltips to be the value of the bar.
By default, the label is the value, but I was told I could change the
label the series name like so:
bs1.getDataPoint( ).getComponents( ).clear( );
bs1.getDataPoint( ).getComponents( ).add( DataPointComponentImpl.create(
DataPointComponentType.SERIES_VALUE_LITERAL, null ) );
This works fine, however, when I create my tooltips, I do it like so:
bs1.getTriggers( ).add(
TriggerImpl.create(
TriggerCondition.ONMOUSEOVER_LITERAL,
ActionImpl.create(
ActionType.SHOW_TOOLTIP_LITERAL,
TooltipValueImpl.create(500,
bs1.getLabel().getCaption().getValue() )
)
)
);
Which, of course gives me the series name as a tooltip instead of a
value. How would I put the bar value in the tooltip instead?

Just leave the tooltip value empty. It should automatically pick up the
value.
Thanks,

If I do this:
bs1.getTriggers( ).add(
TriggerImpl.create(
TriggerCondition.ONMOUSEOVER_LITERAL,
ActionImpl.create(
ActionType.SHOW_TOOLTIP_LITERAL,
TooltipValueImpl.create(500, "" )
)
)
);
I still get the series name as the tooltip, not the bar value.
Am I missing something here?

Try with null instead of "", it should normally work.
Thanks,
