How to use SVG image in Flutter Cartesian Chart tooltip?
In this article, we explain how to use SVG image in the cartesian chart tooltip by using the Flutter Cartesian Chart.
In the SfCartesianChart widget, we can render the SVG image in the cartesian chart tooltip by using the builder property of TooltipBehavior. The following steps explain how to achieve this,
Step 1: To access SVG images, add the flutter_svg dependency to the pubspec file. Also, ensure that the SVG image has been added to the project and is referred to the pubspec's assets.
dependencies: flutter_svg: ^1.0.3 flutter: assets: - assets/
Step 2: Initialize the _chartData variable in the initState method, which contains the chart's data source. And access the SVG image from the asset folder using the SvgPicture.asset. Find the code below to accomplish this.
import 'package:flutter_svg/svg.dart'; late List<_ChartData> _chartData; late TooltipBehavior _tooltipBehavior; @override void initState() { _chartData = <_ChartData>[ _ChartData('Jan', 35), _ChartData('Feb', 28), _ChartData('Mar', 34), _ChartData('Apr', 32), _ChartData('May', 40) ]; _tooltipBehavior = TooltipBehavior( enable: true, builder: (dynamic data, dynamic point, dynamic series, int pointIndex, int seriesIndex) { return SizedBox( child: SvgPicture.asset('assets/circle.svg') ); } ); super.initState(); } class _ChartData { _ChartData(this.year, this.sales); final String year; final double sales; }
Step 3: Now create the SfCartesianChart widget with the ColumnSeries and initialize the required properties. And also assign the _tooltipBehavior to the tooltipBehavior property.
@override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return SfCartesianChart( tooltipBehavior: _tooltipBehavior, primaryXAxis: CategoryAxis(), series: <ColumnSeries<_ChartData, String>>[ ColumnSeries<_ChartData, String>( dataSource: _chartData, xValueMapper: (_ChartData data, _) => data.year, yValueMapper: (_ChartData data, _) => data.sales ) ] ); }
Now the cartesian chart tooltip will render with the SVG image.
