RangeNavigator provides Tooltip support for sliders. Sliders are used to select data at particular range in the RangeNavigator control. Tooltips for sliders display the selected start and end DateTime values.

Customization

RangeNavigator provides support for you to customize the text display in the tooltip and background using TooltipSettings property. You can change font family, font color, font style, font weight. By default “Segoe UI” font family is set to tooltip text.

  • Tooltip visibility can be enabled or disabled using Visible property.
  • You can change background color of tooltip using BackgroundColor property.
  • You can customize the Color, Family, FontStyle, Opacity, Size and Weight of tooltip text in Font property.
  • CSHTML
    • @(Html.EJ().RangeNavigator("container")

.TooltipSettings(tooltip=>tooltip

.Visible(true)

.BackgroundColor("Black")

//  To customize the tooltip text

.Font(font=>font

.Color("red")

    Label Format

    By default, the tooltip texts are automatically determined based on the data points. To make it readable and understandable you can format the tooltip text. For DateTime data, all globalized format are supported. By default the LabelFormat is “MM/dd/yyyy”.

    Some of the LabelFormat for DateTime data are as follows:

    • ‘MMM, yyyy’
    • ‘dd, MMM’
    • ‘dd/MM/yyyy’
    • ‘dd, hh:mm’
    • ‘hh:mm:ss’

    ‘hh:mm:ss:tt’

  • CSHTML
    • @(Html.EJ().RangeNavigator("container")

.TooltipSettings(tooltip=>tooltip.LabelFormat("MMM, yyyy"))

)

    By default the tooltip for RangeNavigator gets displayed. You can change this behavior using the TooltipDisplayMode property in the TooltipSettings and it takes the following values.

    Tooltip values
