We are making tooltips more powerful and interactive than ever. With this new feature, you can fully customise your tooltips, embed charts, display rich content, and configure them in lots of different ways. Here’s a quick overview of what you can do.

Embed Charts:
- Add charts directly into your tooltips to give users a deeper look at the data without leaving the view. For example, in a bar chart of popular artists, you can show a pie chart breaking down explicit vs. non-explicit songs when hovering over an artist.
