is there a way to increase the length tooltip is displayed in asp.net chart?

Question

I have a chart that displays a tooltip (string) when hovered over. Is there a way to control the delay/time the tooltip is displayed to the user?

<asp:Chart runat="server" ID="Chart2" Width="340px" Height="265px">
        <!--Define Things in here-->
    </asp:Chart>

Backend:

    //define what rec is
    string tooltip = rec;
    Chart2.ToolTip = tooltip;

Answer 1

Sorry, but probably not.

Most tooltips are a browser feature, and display either the alt tag of an img, or the title tag of most elements. So the control of how long that tooltip displays is going to vary from browser to browser.

It's possible that the tooltip is under your control, and is an html element displayed with javascript on mouseover, or the charts and the tooltip might be in Flash or Silverlight, but if that's the case we'd need to see your code.

I'm guessing probably not. If you need more flexibility I would recommend going with a jQuery tooltip solution.
