The Telerik Chart method for setting tooltips is somewhat different from the other tooltips I have in my app in that it seems one can't just set the information in XAML or code. Telerik charting relies on a method whereby a property on the series definition (ShowItemToolTips) is set to turn on tooltip eventing and then an event that occurs at Tooltip display time is wired up (ItemToolTipOpening)
How do I customise the appearance and display offset for a tooltip that appears for a Telerik chart item?
It seems that one can't customise the tooltip the way one can with the normal method, because when the event fires the properties on the ItemToolTip2D object passed into the event are nearly all read only. The only properties that can be set are InnerBorderBrush and OuterBorderBrush.
The main problem is that Telerik chart tooltips get severely truncated for the rightmost chart items because there is hardly any horizontal canvas space available to display the tooltip.
How can I change the offset for these tooltips so that text doesn't become complete inaccessible? and How can I get Telerik tooltips to have the more polished look and feel that my other tooltips have? (ie ability to specify whatever I like in a Content element)?
Thanks,
Ian
