No text hover info on polar plots

[djkashtan]

If I set my plot to use x and y and text, it works just fine. If I set it to use r and t (radius and theta), the r and t show up when I hover over the marker, but I cannot get text to show up. Is this a known bug or do I have to do something special? I did not find anything in the api :(

Here is a jsfiddle:

From v1.0.0 release notes:

Polar charts are under-developed.

+1, would like to have option to customize text hovers like on other chart types.

I'll +1 this too. Having a on_hover/on_click event would be very useful.

Both suggestions are in the plans. Stay tuned for updates.

Any updates on this 18month old issue?

Hi, I try to set up a radar chart and can't make the text to appear on hover.
Any update (or plan) with this ?

No updates. We mostly stopped maintaining polar charts in their current form. Polar needs a full rewrite which should take at least one month if not two.

Projects of that scale usually require some financial support. Please take a look at https://plot.ly/products/consulting-and-oem/ if any of you are interested.
