Hi,

It's a feature of the new chart objects in xl2007. The chartobject needs
to be selected in order to register mouse events.

Cheers
Andy

For an embedded chart, XL2007 appears to behave differently than XL2003.
In all previous versions of Excel, an embedded chart on a worksheet did
NOT have to be selected (i.e. be the active object) in order for the
"chart tips" to display information about a series (e.g. "Series 1 Point
1 Value: 1.1"). The user could simply hove the mouse over a point on a
series and the "chart tips" box would appear.

In XL2007, the "chart tips" will not display the yellow tips box with the
series/point/value information unless the chart is selected (i.e. the
resize handles are visible). Is there a setting to change this behavior
back to the old way, or is this a new "feature".

Can someone else confirm this behavior on their version of XL2007. Am I
missing something simple?

Tom

---Line Chart Example:
Data : Mouse_hover_chart_tip
1.1 : Series 1 Point 1 Value: 1.1
2.2 : Series 1 Point 2 Value: 2.2
3.3 : Series 1 Point 3 Value: 3.3
4.4 : Series 1 Point 4 Value: 4.4
