Many charting applications allow the label values to be hidden and shown
only when the mouse hovers over the specified data marker. There are
variations where all the label values for a given series show themselves
when the mouse hovers over the series graph. Any way to do this with BIRT?
Thanks,
Mike

Okay, stumbled into the solution. Just change the DataPoint values for the
series. BTW., that is a terrible dialog, there is no indication that one
must remove an entry before one can change it's attributes by adding it
back! I missed this the first time because I just selected "Orthoganal
Value" and added a prefix, which did nothing. I had to remove "Orthoganal
Value" and then add it back with the prefix specified at the same time!
