#VALX value in MS Chart in C# isn't coming in "M/d H:mm" format

c#, mschart, tooltip, winforms

Solution

Try this: `#VALX{M/d H:mm}`. So your code will be:

chart1.Series[0].ToolTip = "Computer Name: #SERIESNAME \nDate & Time: #VALX{M/d H:mm}  \nLevel: #VALY";

Problem

I wrote the following Winforms code: ``` chart1.ChartAreas[0].AxisX.LabelStyle.Format = "M/d H:mm "; ``` This makes my X-axis seen as, for example 11/25 8:00. But when I provide the tooltip for the datapoints it just provides the date and not the format "M/d H:mm". Here is my code: ``` chart1.Series[0].ToolTip = "Computer Name: #SERIESNAME \nDate & Time: #VALX \nLevel: #VALY";` ``` And the tooltip result which I got was this: Computer Name: COMP NAME Date & Time: 11/25/2013 Level: 4 I want the "Date & Time" value as " 11/25 8:00", which is being showed in the X-axis but not in the #VALX tooltip.
