With the follow xaml the tool tip is displayed with US $ even thou I have set the correct Culture (£) 

Public Sub New()
  InitializeComponent()
  Me.Language = XmlLanguage.GetLanguage(Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture.Name)
End Sub

<telerik:RadPieChart  x:Name="PieChartDeadStock" Palette="Windows8" Grid.Column="0" Grid.Row="0" >

                <telerik:RadPieChart.Behaviors>

                    <telerik:ChartTooltipBehavior HorizontalOffset="-6" VerticalOffset="-49" />

                </telerik:RadPieChart.Behaviors>

                <telerik:RadPieChart.TooltipTemplate>

                    <DataTemplate>

 

                        <Grid>

                            <Border BorderThickness="1" BorderBrush="Black" ></Border>

                            <StackPanel  Orientation="Vertical" Background="White" Margin="2,2,2,2" >

                                <TextBlock FontWeight="Bold" Text="{Binding Path=DataItem.Description}"/>

                                <TextBlock Text="{Binding Value, StringFormat='C'}" />

 

                            </StackPanel>

 

                        </Grid>

                    </DataTemplate>

                </telerik:RadPieChart.TooltipTemplate>

                <telerik:PieSeries  ShowLabels="True" RadiusFactor="0.7" ValueBinding="StockValue" ItemsSource="{Binding}">

 

 

                    <telerik:PieSeries.AngleRange>

                        <telerik:AngleRange  SweepAngle="360" />

                    </telerik:PieSeries.AngleRange>

                </telerik:PieSeries>

            </telerik:RadPieChart>

Hi Andy,

It is a Silverlight issue which reflects the ToolTip behavior as well. As a workaround, try using ValueConverter.

Hope this helps.
