    Yes, that is exactly what we are thinking about. Do you think that is feasible ?

    Yes, We would like to freeze/pin the tooltip to the current hovered point (we have a keybind for it), so you are free to move your cursor around the application (and over the chart) without the tooltip moving or updating anymore.

    Hey Torstein,

    That is indeed a much more elegant solution. That makes much of our code simpler. The second part is now to keep the tooltip showing for the specific point that is was focused on. Do you have any tips on how elegantly to stop redrawing the tooltip so it keeps showing for that one certain point on the chart?

    We implemented a custom solution without modifying highcharts but it includes a lot of event.StopPropagation on mouse moves which is really dirty and messes with other parts of the code. This feature would be welcomed very much.
