ViewsHow can I display the xAxes and yAxes data in the tooltip, Chart JS?
I am trying to achieve the Tooltip shown below in the first image. Inside of the tooltip I need to display the yAxes and xAxes data. The chart.js version I am using is 3.7.0
My tooltip looks like this:
The tooltip that I am trying copy:
The chart.js documentation is quite hard for me to understand. Is there any guru that can explain to me.
Question: Why is my tooltip returning the yAxes data, that I return as a variable(label) as undefined?
Are there any other options I can use to make my chart look like the chart in the second picture?
My Code:
tooltip: {
displayColors: false,
backgroundColor: 'rgba(45,132,180,0.8)',
bodyFontColor: 'rgb(255,255,255)',
callbacks: {
title: function(item, everything){
return;
},
label: function(item, everything){
//console.log(item);
//console.log(everything);
let first = item.yLabel;
let second = item.xLabel;
let label = first + ' ppm';
return label;
}
}
}
Thank you in advance for your time and efforts, please help me figure out what am I doing wrong!

yLabel and xLabel dont exist anymore on the tooltip, they are V2 syntax.
You can just axess the y object in the parsed section to get the y value. Then you can use the afterBody callback to show the x label like so:
const options = {
type: 'line',
data: {
labels: ["Red", "Blue", "Yellow", "Green", "Purple", "Orange"],
datasets: [{
label: '# of Votes',
data: [12, 19, 3, 5, 2, 3],
borderColor: 'pink'
}]
},
options: {
plugins: {
tooltip: {
displayColors: false,
backgroundColor: 'rgba(45,132,180,0.8)',
bodyFontColor: 'rgb(255,255,255)',
callbacks: {
title: () => {
return
},
label: (ttItem) => (`${ttItem.parsed.y} ppm`),
afterBody: (ttItems) => (ttItems[0].label)
}
}
}
}
}
const ctx = document.getElementById('chartJSContainer').getContext('2d');
new Chart(ctx, options);<body>
<canvas id="chartJSContainer" width="600" height="400"></canvas>
