May I ask how to use the tool tip?
I find a div tag named "tooltip" in this code, but I can't find where it is used..

Hello EfratVil,
The scatter plot with zoom is really cool, could you please show us how to add tool-tip to the circles on mouseover.

Thank you

Thank you ! If the x axis is timestamp, does it work still?
