Tooltip Won't Display if Converted from Visual with Disabled Tooltip (Having been Previously Displayed)

Issue #41 closed
Daniel Marsh-Patrick repo owner created an issue

Found by a very helpful end-user:

  • Take an existing visual, which has Tooltip set to off, e.g. table
  • Toggle the tooltip on and off again
  • Delete the fields from the visual that you don't need
  • Convert the visual to a Violin Plot
  • Tooltip is not displayed

This works as expected if the table is converted from its initial state or if the initial Tooltip setting is enabled when converted. it seems to be the act of toggling it back off that causes some oddness with the conversion.

From checking the code, the event to create the tooltipService is firing correctly, and the renderTooltip function is firing - it's just not rendering the tooltip.

Workaround: Create the visual from scratch, or toggle the Tooltip to on before converting if you are unsure of the original visual's Tooltip state.

    I believe that this is now fixed, given the tooltip changes in 1.2.0.3. I cannot reproduce it any more. Closing for now; we can re-open if it resurfaces.
