Hi
I have 3 series in a stacked bar chart and i have assigned them titles. Also i have this piece of code-

Dim MarksTip1 As Steema.TeeChart.Tools.MarksTip
MarksTip1 = New Steema.TeeChart.Tools.MarksTip

MarksTip1.Style = Steema.TeeChart.Styles.MarksStyles.SeriesTitle

Now because of above when i hover mouse over the bars i can see the titles of the series. This is fine for series1 and series2 but i dont want to show it for series3. I want when user hover the mouse over series3 nothing should be displayed. But for this i dont want to remove the title of the seies3 as i want to show the same in legend. Is there any way to accomplish the same. Many thanks in advance.

Hi shikha,

Yes, you can use MarksTip's GetText event to set to an empty string the hints you don't want to display, for example:

Code: Select all

		public Form1()
		{
			InitializeComponent();
			InitializeChart();
		}

		private void InitializeChart()
		{
			for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
			{
				tChart1.Series.Add(new Steema.TeeChart.Styles.Bar());
				tChart1[i].Title = "Bar " + (i + 1).ToString();
				tChart1[i].FillSampleValues();
			}

			Steema.TeeChart.Tools.MarksTip marksTip1 = new Steema.TeeChart.Tools.MarksTip(tChart1.Chart);
			marksTip1.Style = Steema.TeeChart.Styles.MarksStyles.SeriesTitle;
			marksTip1.GetText += new Steema.TeeChart.Tools.MarksTipGetTextEventHandler(marksTip1_GetText);
		}

		void marksTip1_GetText(Steema.TeeChart.Tools.MarksTip sender, Steema.TeeChart.Tools.MarksTipGetTextEventArgs e)
		{
			if (e.Text == tChart1[tChart1.Series.Count - 1].Title)
			{
				e.Text = "";
			}
		}
