# Tooltips

> Control which fields appear when a user hovers over a chart mark.

Tooltips appear when a user hovers over a data point in a chart. By default, Cube automatically populates the tooltip with all fields mapped to chart channels. You can customize which fields are shown and in what order.

## Default behavior

When a chart is first created, all fields assigned to the chart (X, Y, color, size) are included in the tooltip automatically. The tooltip is enabled by default on all Vega-based chart types (bar, line, area, scatter, heatmap, boxplot) and on map charts.

## Configuring tooltip fields

Open the **Fields** tab of the chart configuration panel. The **Tooltip** section shows the list of fields currently included in the tooltip.

| Action             | How                                                          |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Add a field**    | Drag a field from **Available fields** into the Tooltip slot |
| **Remove a field** | Click the **×** on a field token in the Tooltip list         |
| **Reorder fields** | Drag field tokens within the Tooltip list                    |

## Disabling tooltips

To turn off tooltips entirely, remove all fields from the Tooltip slot. When the Tooltip slot is empty, no tooltip is shown on hover.

## Tooltip behavior on stacked charts

On stacked bar charts, the tooltip is scoped to the individual stack segment under the cursor — it shows the value for that specific series at that X position, not the total stack value. To display the stack total, use [data labels](/docs/explore-analyze/charts/configuration/data-labels) with the **Simple totals** option.
