[hughess]

Feature Description

Ability to customize tooltips in charts and maps

Goal of Feature

• Show more fields in the tooltip
• Customize the appearance of the tooltip

Current Solution / Workarounds

In some cases, echartsOptions can be used to customize.

Implementation Notes

• The syntax will need to include a way to set value formats for the columns supplied to the tooltip
• Will need to decide on the level of style control available

This might be better placed as another request, but custom tooltips for column headers in the DataTable would also be extremely useful. We have columns that get renamed to acronyms (e.g. CAGR) and it would be extremely helpful to add the full name as a tooltip.

@timothyhoward I played around with something like that before - is this similar to what you're imagining?

@hughess That's exactly what I was imagining!
