The tooltip not rotate after we apply coord_flip().

[hchen98]

When I have a horizontal rotation with the plot, I noticed the x and y lab tooltips perfectly rotated as well. However, the tooltip for the plot data is not rotating.

e.g., when I have a vertical plot, the tooltip of the data label works fine:

but when I apply coord_flip(), the data label is not rotated and becomes hard to read:

A snapshot of my code:

ggplot(temp_df.melt()) + \
    geom_boxplot(
        aes(x='variable', y='value'),
        outlier_shape=21, outlier_size=2,
        size=1, alpha=.5, width=.5) + \
    labs(x='1', y='Population (millions)') + coord_flip()

Did anyone face the same issue?

Hi @hchen98 , rotated labels are certainly a bit harder to read. We'll try to find a better layout option. Thanx for feedback!

@hchen98 in v2.5.0 tooltips are only just slightly tilted :

IMHO it feels better, check this out: https://nbviewer.org/github/JetBrains/lets-plot/blob/master/docs/f-22c/tooltips_after_coord_flip.ipynb
