HoverTool - Wrapping lengthy text

Community Support
1

Hi there,

I need some guidance. I am using the hovertool to show to users what text represents the underlying data point (e.g. facebook post). The challenge I have is, is the hovertool grows infinitely wide in order to fit the text.

e.g.

How can I apply word-wrapping such that the text element is more readable and the hover tool border fits nicely within the display dimensions. Any guidance will be much appreciated.

Thanks

Hi,

You can supply a custom HTML template to the hover tool, which is probably your best bet in cases like this:
