How to disable hover tool programmatically?

Community Support

Hi all,
The hover and crosshair tools are enabled by default when added to the toolbar.

I’d like them to be available but disabled by default - i.e. not active when the plot is created.

There’s nos equivalent to active_drag, active_scroll, or active_tap.

Is there a trick to achieve what I would like to do?

Thanks for your help.

Nicolas

Hi,

I don't think this is currently possible, but it seems like a reasonable request. Can you make a feature request issue on GitHub (I don't see one there already)
