I have a Google Line Chart with 2 data series - Row A
and Row B
:
Here is the very simple test code - just open it in the browser and it will work:
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="https://www.google.com/jsapi?autoload={'modules':[{'name':'visualization','version':'1','packages':['corechart']}]}"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var data = {"rows":[
{"c":[{"v":"C"},{"v":-43},{"v":-42}]},
{"c":[{"v":"D"},{"v":-49},{"v":-39}]},
{"c":[{"v":"E"},{"v":-49},{"v":-48}]},
{"c":[{"v":"F"},{"v":-50},{"v":-49}]},
{"c":[{"v":"G"},{"v":-57},{"v":-56}]}],
"cols":[
{"p":{"role":"domain"},"label":"MEASUREMENT","type":"string"},
{"p":{"role":"data"},"label":"Row A","type":"number"},
{"p":{"role":"data"},"label":"Row B","type":"number"}]};
function drawCharts() {
var x = new google.visualization.DataTable(data);
var options = {
title: 'How to add tooltips?',
width: 800,
height: 600
};
var chart = new google.visualization.LineChart(document.getElementById('test'));
chart.draw(x, options);
}
$(function() {
google.setOnLoadCallback(drawCharts);
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="test"></div>
</body>
</html>
I would like to add tooltips to each data point, which would for example display:
Row A: x=D y=-49
on mouse hover. And I can not use dataTable.addColumn
, because my chart is generated at once by a perl script and I just use a data
Object with cols
and rows
as above.
Does anybody please know, how to do it here?
Specifying the tooltip typeisHtml: true in the chart options passed to the draw() call, which will also allow you to create Tooltip Actions.
To achieve this, we first add a table within the tooltip. The first column contains the categories ("women", "men"), and the second one contains the bars. In this second column, we then add HTML <div> tags and define the width of these boxes with our numerical columns.
To add tooltip annotations to your own dashboard, start by entering Edit mode in Google Data Studio. Next, go to Community Visualizations → Explore more → Build your own visualisation.
You can use a DataView to create the tooltip columns for you. This code snippet will dynamically create a tooltip column in the DataView for every data series:
var columns = [0];
for (var i = 1; i < x.getNumberOfColumns(); i++) {
columns.push(i);
columns.push({
type: 'string',
properties: {
role: 'tooltip'
},
calc: (function (j) {
return function (dt, row) {
return dt.getColumnLabel(j) + ': x=' + dt.getValue(row, 0) + ' y=' + dt.getValue(row, j)
}
})(i)
});
}
var view = new google.visualization.DataView(x);
view.setColumns(columns);
