Hovering text support

Post by newbie2 »

Hi,

I am new to this forum and has started using cacti pretty recently.

Cacti is a great tool and like it a lot. I wanted to know if there is any way I can add a hovering text on the graph whenever I take my mouse pointer on top of it.

Today If I take my mouse pointer on top of the graph, it shows the graph title. Instead of that if I want to show some different text, How can I do that ? Is there any existing way of doing that.

Thanks

This is not possible right now. It would perhaps require to code a new plugin.

The network weathermap plugin has a NOTES keyword that does this. So if you display your graphs on a weathermap, and I can't imagine not using weathermap now to display my most useful graphs, you can add hovering text to any node or link. If the node or link has a hovering graph already (OVERLIBGRAPH), then the notes text is integrated as a footer under the graph. If the node or link has no hovering graph associated with it, then the text appears by itself when you mouseover it.
