Tooltip behavior on line chart with Date as the x-axis












0














I'm trying to create a line chart with a tooltip where the x-axis is a date.



I would like the line and tooltip to change after it is halfway (or similar) to the next tick on the x-axis.



Mainly I would like the behavior to be the same as this bl.ock: http://bl.ocks.org/wdickerson/64535aff478e8a9fd9d9facccfef8929



You can view the behavior I currently have on my bl.ock: https://bl.ocks.org/JulienAssouline/574a52ee2034bcdc1e56ed926f36dd52



It mostly works but the data only changes after it passes to the September month and it never reaches the October month.



I have tried to adapt my code to the bl.ock. The problem is the bl.ock displayed is using years and I am using a date format which seems to be my main problem.



Here is the main part of the code:



 var tipBox = svg.append("rect")
.attr("width", width)
.attr("height", height)
.attr("opacity", 0)
.on("mousemove", drawTooltip)
.on("mouseout", removeTooltip)

function removeTooltip() {
if (tooltip) tooltip.style('display', 'none');
if (tooltipLine) tooltipLine.attr('stroke', 'none');
}

function drawTooltip(){
const line_hover = xScale.invert(d3.mouse(this)[0]);
// console.log(d3.mouse(this)[0])
console.log(xScale.invert(d3.mouse(this)[0]).getMonth())

console.log(Math.floor(xScale.invert(d3.mouse(this)[0])))

const date_hover = xScale.invert(d3.mouse(this)[0]).getMonth()



// yScale.invert(pos.y)

tooltipLine.attr("stroke", "grey")
.attr("x1", xScale(line_hover))
.attr("x2", xScale(line_hover))
.attr("y1", 0)
.attr("y2", height)
.attr("class", "line_hover")
.style('stroke-width', 1)

tooltip.html(date_hover)
.style("position", "absolute")
.style("background-color", "lightgrey")
.style('display', 'block')
.style('left', d3.event.pageX - 100+ "px")
.style('top', d3.event.pageY - 20+"px")
.selectAll()
.data(dataNest).enter()
.append('div')
.style('color', "black")
.html(function(e){ return e.key + ': ' + e.values.find(function(h){ return (h.Date.getMonth() + 0.5) == (date_hover + 0.5) }).randNumCol})
}

          GetMonth will always give the month. Get the date and display based on the date. Not ideal, but works.
