Data Point Mouseover – not very accurate

  I have set a function to be triggered on mouseover like this:

   data: [
                      {
                          type: "spline",   
  						mouseover: onMouseover,   
  						click: onMouseover,  
  						markerSize:2,      
  						markerColor:'red',
                          dataPoints: dataPoints
                      }
                      ]

  This does work but it doesn’t always happen.

  Is there a better way to achieve this?

  Ideally I would like an event to be triggered anytime that the cursor moves over the chart – as the dot & labels move from point to point (i.e. not just when the mouse is over the actual marker, but when it is within the range). Any advice would be appreciated.

  Thanks

  @s_t_harvey,

  This feature is not available out of the box as of now. However, you can take a look at this work-around.
