characteristics on legend hovering

  Dear All:
  I´d like to show a text on legend item hovering. Each legend item has a detailed description that does not appear in the legend, but it would be great if further information would be presented on hovering. I can reach the additional information using document.getElementById(‘target’) but I could not manage to show it using methods such as itemmouseover and itemmouseout. I also tried to use tooltip methods but none of them worked correctly. Something similar to what we have in dataseries tooltip would be perfect, but any other alternative that displays the information is OK.
  Is there any way of doing this?
  Thanks in advance.

  @eccolin,

  You can add an extra div on itemmousemove event of the legend. You can check out the example in the documentation of itemmousemove.
