Attributes of the tooltip element enable the user to manage a tooltip that appears on hovering over a data series or series point. A detailed description of tooltip element attributes is given in the developer site.
As a part of the improvements, the clearMoving attribute is added for the tooltip element. This attribute determines whether the tooltip follows the mouse pointer. Also, the crosshairs element with the showLabel attribute is added to manage displaying labels for selected point in the axes.
