highcharts - Show tooltip in column chart when hovering crosshair line -


using highstock ("stockchart"), tooltips each bar in column chart show if hovering "crosshair line" above actual bar. see example:

$('#container').highcharts('stockchart', {         chart: {             alignticks: false         },          rangeselector: {             selected: 1         },          title: {             text: 'aapl stock volume'         },          series: [{             type: 'column',             name: 'aapl stock volume',             data: data,             datagrouping: {                 units: [[                     'week', // unit name                     [1] // allowed multiples                 ], [                     'month',                     [1, 2, 3, 4, 6]                 ]]             }         }]     });

how achieve same result using highcharts column chart? example of similar highcharts example column chart can found here:

$('#container').highcharts({     chart: {         type: 'column'     },     title: {         text: 'world\'s largest cities per 2014'     },     subtitle: {         text: 'source: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/list_of_cities_proper_by_population">wikipedia</a>'     },     xaxis: {         type: 'category',         labels: {             rotation: -45,             style: {                 fontsize: '13px',                 fontfamily: 'verdana, sans-serif'             }         }     },     yaxis: {         min: 0,         title: {             text: 'population (millions)'         }     },     legend: {         enabled: false     },     tooltip: {         pointformat: 'population in 2008: <b>{point.y:.1f} millions</b>'     },     series: [{         name: 'population',         data: [             ['shanghai', 23.7],             ['lagos', 16.1],             ['instanbul', 14.2],             ['karachi', 14.0],             ['mumbai', 12.5],             ['moscow', 12.1],             ['são paulo', 11.8],             ['beijing', 11.7],             ['guangzhou', 11.1],             ['delhi', 11.1],             ['shenzhen', 10.5],             ['seoul', 10.4],             ['jakarta', 10.0],             ['kinshasa', 9.3],             ['tianjin', 9.3],             ['tokyo', 9.0],             ['cairo', 8.9],             ['dhaka', 8.9],             ['mexico city', 8.9],             ['lima', 8.9]         ],         datalabels: {             enabled: true,             rotation: -90,             color: '#ffffff',             align: 'right',             format: '{point.y:.1f}', // 1 decimal             y: 10, // 10 pixels down top             style: {                 fontsize: '13px',                 fontfamily: 'verdana, sans-serif'             }         }     }] }); 

column jsfiddle example

as can see in second example, tooltips show when actual bars hovered. realize can achieve setting "shared" true tooltip, in example:

$('#container').highcharts({     chart: {         type: 'column'     },     title: {         text: 'monthly average rainfall'     },     subtitle: {         text: 'source: worldclimate.com'     },     xaxis: {         categories: [             'jan',             'feb',             'mar',             'apr',             'may',             'jun',             'jul',             'aug',             'sep',             'oct',             'nov',             'dec'         ],         crosshair: true     },     yaxis: {         min: 0,         title: {             text: 'rainfall (mm)'         }     },     tooltip: {         headerformat: '<span style="font-size:10px">{point.key}</span><table>',         pointformat: '<tr><td style="color:{series.color};padding:0">{series.name}: </td>' +             '<td style="padding:0"><b>{point.y:.1f} mm</b></td></tr>',         footerformat: '</table>',         shared: true,         usehtml: true     },     plotoptions: {         column: {             pointpadding: 0.2,             borderwidth: 0         }     },     series: [{         name: 'tokyo',         data: [49.9, 71.5, 106.4, 129.2, 144.0, 176.0, 135.6, 148.5, 216.4, 194.1, 95.6, 54.4]      }, {         name: 'new york',         data: [83.6, 78.8, 98.5, 93.4, 106.0, 84.5, 105.0, 104.3, 91.2, 83.5, 106.6, 92.3]      }, {         name: 'london',         data: [48.9, 38.8, 39.3, 41.4, 47.0, 48.3, 59.0, 59.6, 52.4, 65.2, 59.3, 51.2]      }, {         name: 'berlin',         data: [42.4, 33.2, 34.5, 39.7, 52.6, 75.5, 57.4, 60.4, 47.6, 39.1, 46.8, 51.1]      }] }); 

column jsfiddle example using shared tooltip

the problem solution don't want shared tooltip, want 1 individual tooltip each bar.

thank you.

there no need of using more 1 series when using shared tooltip. tooltip can 'shared itself' , achieve result need (jsfiddle). adding tooltip configs of third example in second trick.

tooltip: {         headerformat: '<span style="font-size:10px">{point.key}</span><table>',         pointformat: '<tr><td style="color:{series.color};padding:0">{series.name}: </td>' +             '<td style="padding:0"><b>{point.y:.1f} mm</b></td></tr>',         footerformat: '</table>',         shared: true,         usehtml: true     },
