ng2-google-charts doesn't show the correct tooltip












1














I am using ng2-google-charts to create a Timeline chart and I want to display a custom tooltip - it's not too complicated, I just want to display a different value depending on some conditions. This is my code:



Component:



chartData:any =  {
chartType: 'Timeline',
dataTable: [
['Name', 'From', 'To', {role: 'tooltip'}]
]
}

this.chartData.dataTable.push([x.values.name, x.values.dateFrom, x.values.dateTo, item.values.organization]);


The problem is that the tooltip displays the value from the Name column and not the value from the last column which is defined to be used as a tooltip.
So into the tooltip I would like to see the value of item.values.organization and not x.values.name (which is currently showing).
Please advise what am I doing wrong. Thanks!

          for the timeline chart, the tooltip column needs to be in a certain position.



          every row of your datatable must have all five columns,

          row label, bar label, tooltip, start, and end -- in that order.



          see following working snippet...






          google.charts.load('current', {
          'packages': ['timeline']
          });
          google.charts.setOnLoadCallback(drawChart);

          function drawChart() {
          var container = document.getElementById('timeline-tooltip');
          var chart = new google.visualization.Timeline(container);
          var dataTable = new google.visualization.DataTable();

          dataTable.addColumn({
          type: 'string',
          id: 'President'
          });
          dataTable.addColumn({
          type: 'string',

          });
          dataTable.addColumn({

          role: 'tooltip'
          });
          dataTable.addColumn({
          type: 'date',

          dataTable.addColumn({

          dataTable.addRows([
