=== Vector tooltips
|
|
Vector tooltips display attributes for the features at your mouse location.
|
|
These tooltips give users an in-depth insight into what's going on in the map.
|
|
|
|
If more than one feature exists at a location, the tooltip displays the
|
|
attributes for the top feature, and notes the number of features at that location.
|
|
The following image shows a tooltip with three features at the current location.
|
|
The tooltip displays attributes for the top feature, the green circle.

==== Formatting tooltips
|
|
|
|
You can format the attributes in a tooltip by adding <<managing-fields, field formatters>> to your
|
|
Kibana index pattern. You can use field formatters to round numbers, provide units,
|
|
and even display images in your tooltip.

==== Locking a tooltip at the current location
|
|
You can lock a tooltip in place by clicking a location on the map.
|
|
With locked tooltips you can:
|
|
|
|
* Page through features.
|
|
* Create a <<maps-phrase-filter, phrase filter>> from a feature attribute value.
|
|
* Create a <<maps-spatial-filters, spatial filter>> from a feature's geometry.
|
|
|
|
This image shows a locked tooltip with features from three layers.
|
|
The tooltip displays attributes
|
|
for the second feature, the blue New York State polygon. The tooltip includes
|
|
controls for paging through the features and a dropdown menu for filtering
|
|
the features by layer.
