One tip/mouseover event to activate tips on other charts?

Community Help

Hi, I’d like to show a facet or small multiple or arbitrary number of charts have their hover-over tip functionality linked together. Currently, I hover over one chart and get a tip for that chart only. I want to be able to hover over one chart have the same x, y values trigger a tip in other charts. In essence all “linked” charts would be listening to the tip/mouseover events of the other charts. The use case would eventually be in an Observable Framework, but I’m guessing a solution could be demoed in a Observable Notebook.

Also, more generally, I wonder if it is possible to customize the tip area with similar marks as the legend might have.

Example I want to recreate: CISNET

Thanks in advance.

Thanks @Fil. Still not seeing the solution for showing the actual tip, but I do see the idea for labels/marks.

and this can get you going…

Thanks again @Fil. This is a great example. I’m still looking for how to show multiple tips at once across multiple (similar) charts – a kind of triggering of a mouseover event for connected charts. It is the mechanism for one chart to listen to the mouseovers from another chart, that I don’t yet see. But also note your comment about github discussions. Thanks very much for your help.
