Summary0012291: Precision in x-y chart tooltip is fixed
DescriptionIn the x-y chart there is a handy feature where you hover your mouse cursor over a line series and a tooltip pops up and reports the x/y coordinates of that point on the series. However, the numbers are given in fixed precision with two digits after the decimal point. If you have values with an absolute value of less than 0.1, you get very imprecise data (if any at all).

To replicate, load disk_out_ref, plot over line, turn off all series in the chart, then turn on one of the series with smaller values (such as AsH3, CH4, GaMe3, or Pres). Attached is a screenshot from the tutorial that also demonstrates this.

The tooltip should display a minimum of some number of significant digits. At a minimum 3. Perhaps 6 is a good value; it is the default for spreadsheets.

That's weird. I wonder how I submitted the exact same bug twice 5 days apart. Maybe after submitted the first bug Firefox shut down and started up days later loading the same pages, thus resending the form.

I think it was a mixup during the bug tracker transition. Looks like Zack created this bug, he must have "copied" it over from the old bug tracker without noticing that it had already been added to the new bug tracker.
