I have a jqplot chart with two data lines. Only one should have the highlighter enabled. I tried this:
series:[
{
highlighter: {
formatString: "",
show: false
}
},
{
highlighter: {
formatString: "Day %s: %d",
show: true
}
}
]
But unfortunately, this doesn't work: the highlighter shows a small empty dot at the first line, whereas it should show nothing.
How do I show the highlighter on one chart and not on the other?
This is a very interesting question (+1). The only solution that came to my mind, as playing with options of a plot didn't help, was to clean the canvas and hide highlighter's tooltip every time that it is suppose to show. This is done in the code below and presented in a working sample available here.
$('#chart').bind('jqplotMouseMove', function(event, xy, axesData, neighbor, plot) {
if (neighbor && neighbor.seriesIndex == 0) {
var drawingCanvas = $(".jqplot-highlight-canvas")[0];
var context = drawingCanvas.getContext('2d');
context.clearRect(0, 0, drawingCanvas.width, drawingCanvas.height);
$('.jqplot-highlighter-tooltip').hide();
}
});
