Add an option to disable tooltip animation
It would be nice to have an option to disable tooltip animation. On IE8 and less (we are still required to support these browsers!), the javascript engine is so slow that the tooltips don't animation nicely anyway. Also, there are bugs that can cause IE render problems when the tooltips animate. See http://www.tehuber.com/article.php?story=20120424082911788 for more information.

@Kirill You are aware of options like tooltip.enabled and series.enableMouseTracking?

I looked through a lot of forums and nowhere I found very easy way to show/hide a Tooltip like tooltip.enable = true/false. The good way I came to is to set tooltip setting through Formatter in the initialization of chart.
var barsShowen - is a global variable that has a necessary state - true/false - show Tooltip or not.
This example will work in my project www.tanks-vs.com after the beginning of Dec 2014. You could see.
tooltip: {
shared: true,
useHTML: true,formatter: function() {
if (barsShowen) {
var s = '<span><b>' + this.x + '</b></span><table>';
$.each(this.points, function () {
s += '<tr><td align = "left" style = "color:' + this.series.color + ';">' + this.series.name + ': ' +'</td>' +
'<td><b>'+ this.y +'</b></td></tr>' ;
});return s+'</table>';
}
else {
return false;
}}
