I have some data partitioned into three sublists: 

data = {{2776.37, 2016.64, 1483.51, 1027.35, 500.878, 94.1385, 
    310.402, 282.548, 257.886, 224.359, 218.688, 209.312, 215.776, 
    198.78}, {40.5063, 24.633, 12.069, 8.3151, 6.35135, 15.0977, 
    8.74372, 15.5125, 9.34959, 9.70696, 11.125, 12.1457, 10.8075, 
    9.7561}, {113.08, 124.633, 75.9698, 59.5186, 55.9459, 7.81528, 
    57.4372, 69.5291, 80.4878, 88.2784, 105.563, 127.935, 148.571, 
    148.78}};

Each sublist can be represented by a label,

samp = {"x", "y", "z"};

I want to create a ListLogPlot with a Tooltip with the sample name that appears when the mouse hovers over each subset. I have tried,

ListLogPlot[Tooltip[data, samp], Joined -> True]

enter image description here

but this flashes "{x,y,z}" for each subset. How do I achieve the desired effect?

It seems to me you just need to add Thread:

ListLogPlot[Thread @ Tooltip[data, samp], Joined -> True]

Well I just used your previous question to get this working. You cannot just wrap evrything in ToolTip - you need to wrap each data set in it with its specific label:

ListLogPlot[
  MapThread[
   Tooltip, {data, 
    Style[#, 15, Bold, FontFamily -> "Georgia"] & /@ {"Sample X", 
      "Sample Y", "Sample Z"}}], Joined -> True, 
  Ticks -> {Transpose[{Range[14], xaxis}], Automatic}, 
  PlotStyle -> Thick, GridLines -> {Range[14], Automatic}, 
  GridLinesStyle -> Opacity[.5], Mesh -> All, 
  MeshStyle -> Directive[PointSize[.015], Opacity[.5]]] // Magnify

enter image description here

  • $\begingroup$ Very nice :) Sorry for the repetitive example but I needed to know both answers and I thought it would be clumsy to put them in one question... $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @geordie I understand. I am not sure what moderators would advise. I personally would still put it in the same question, saying I need 1) x-labels 2) ToolTips - because basically you joining all this in one single object correct? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I guess the issue is that people who are searching for answers to their burning questions might miss one or the other solution if the question title doesn't explicitly describe both. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @geordie I see your point. BTW did you look through the site for similar questions? I feel like similar things were asked before. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ I tried.. this is always one of the issues with searching for existing answers. A lot of questions don't have a very descriptive title and may not be cataloged properly. It can be quite difficult for a casual SE user to know whether or not their particular question is a duplicate. $\endgroup$
