  Hello,
  
  I have a problem with the ItemToolTipFormat from SeriesDefinition: the format is loaded dynamically from
  database, and some of the formats contain zero. The problem is that zero is always replaced by the Y value,
  being treated as a placeholder. How can I enter zero in the tooltipformat and prevent the automatic
  replace?
  
  Here's my code:
  
  seriesMapping.SeriesDefinition.ItemToolTipFormat = string.Format("{0}", col["Description"].ToString());
  
  Thank you,
  Adrian

  I found the solution, to escape the zero:
  
    seriesMapping.SeriesDefinition.ItemToolTipFormat = string.Format("{0}", col["Description"].ToString().Replace("0","\\0"));
  
  
  Thank you, you can consider the thread closed.
