Tooltip in SVGVIEW output

deleted_user — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 09:59:02 GMT

Hi,
the SVGVIEW device does not put tooltips into output SVG file - created by HTML option in CHORO statement in my case. The tooltips for SVG device are O.K.
Do you know any way how to pass this restriction ?
Thanks for help.

Could you post up your code, and also exactly which version of SAS you're using?

If you are using the SVGVIEW device with ods listing output, you will need to add the IMAGEMAP= option to the proc gmap statement. This could be a reason the tooltips are not showing up.
Support for tooltips with ODS PRINTER output is not currently available and is being worked on for a future release. You will need to be using the SVGVIEW device with ODS LISTING to see the tooltips.

Thank you very much - the IMAGEMAP option was the solution of my problem !!!
This was my test program ...
