I'm making a simple bubble chart using amCharts5. The library has a built in tooltip that looks like a crosshair, I'd like to remove the crosshair lines but keep the tooltip. I haven't been able to find a way to accomplish this.
See the code snippets below for a demonstration of what the crosshairs look like, here's a codepen as well.
I tried adding these lines, per the docs:
cursor.lineY.setAll({
visible: false
cursor.lineX.setAll({
visible: false
});
The result was that the cross-hair lines were hidden, but the little tooltips that show up at the end of each crosshair still showed up, which looked confusing and weird.

}));
chart.get("colors").set("step", 2);

}));
var yAxis = chart.yAxes.push(am5xy.ValueAxis.new(root, {

})
}));

// https://www.amcharts.com/docs/v5/charts/xy-chart/series/#Bullets
var circleTemplate = am5.Template.new({});

var graphics = am5.Circle.new(root, {

return am5.Bullet.new(root, {

// Sample data
var data = [{

"value": 69,

Delete this piece of code:
chart.set("cursor", am5xy.XYCursor.new(root, {
xAxis: xAxis,
yAxis: yAxis,
snapToSeries: [series]
}));
Remove tooltip declaration from axes settings:
tooltip: am5.Tooltip.new(root, {})
You do not need this tooltip:
var series = chart.series.push(am5xy.LineSeries.new(root, {
// ...
tooltip: am5.Tooltip.new(root, {
labelText: "x: {valueX}, y: {valueY}, value: {value}, name: {name}"
})
}));
Instead, do that:
var circleTemplate = am5.Template.new({});
series.bullets.push(function() {
var graphics = am5.Circle.new(root, {
fill: series.get("fill"),
tooltipText: "x: {valueX}, y: {valueY}, value: {value}, name: {name}" // <--- HERE
}, circleTemplate);
return am5.Bullet.new(root, {
sprite: graphics
});
});

var root = am5.Root.new("chartdiv");

// Create chart

var chart = root.container.children.push(am5xy.XYChart.new(root, {
panX: true,
panY: true,
wheelY: "zoomXY",
pinchZoomX:true,
pinchZoomY:true
}));
chart.get("colors").set("step", 2);

}));
var yAxis = chart.yAxes.push(am5xy.ValueAxis.new(root, {

}));
