โœ…

You can use custom property on tooltip like this.

tooltips:{
  custom:function(tooltipModel){

   //Top-Left
    tooltipModel.x=10;
    tooltipModel.y=0;

  }.bind(this)

You can achieve this through the custom tooltip.

Below is the source code that I had implemented when I was facing the same issue.

  • xyz.component.ts
// import the required classes and modules.

@ViewChild("piechart", { static: true }) private piechartRef;

// put the below code into the method based on your requirement

// pie chart start
this.piechart = new Chart(this.piechartRef.nativeElement, {
      type: 'pie',
      data: {
        labels: ["Normal", "Human Impersonation", "Bot"],
        datasets: [
          {
            fill: true,
            backgroundColor: ['#53AF50', '#F8DBD8', 'rgb(255, 129, 0)'],
            data: [73, 42, 19]
          }
        ]
      },
      options: {
        title: {
          display: false,
        },
        legend: {
          display: false,
        },
        tooltips: {
          // Disable the on-canvas tooltip
          enabled: false,
          custom: function (tooltipModel) {
            // Tooltip Element
            var tooltipEl = document.getElementById('chartjs-tooltip');

            // Create element on first render
            if (!tooltipEl) {
              tooltipEl = document.createElement('div');
              tooltipEl.id = 'chartjs-tooltip';
              tooltipEl.innerHTML = '<table></table>';
              tooltipEl.style.backgroundColor = "#FFFFFF";
              tooltipEl.style.borderColor = "#B2BABB";
              tooltipEl.style.borderWidth = "thin";
              tooltipEl.style.borderStyle = "solid";
              document.body.appendChild(tooltipEl);
            }

            // Hide if no tooltip
            if (tooltipModel.opacity === 0) {
              tooltipEl.style.opacity = "0";
              return;
            } else {
              tooltipEl.style.opacity = "1";
            }

            // Set caret Position
            tooltipEl.classList.remove('above', 'below', 'no-transform');
            if (tooltipModel.yAlign) {
              tooltipEl.classList.add(tooltipModel.yAlign);
            } else {
              tooltipEl.classList.add('no-transform');
            }

            function getBody(bodyItem) {

              var tableRoot = tooltipEl.querySelector('table');
              tableRoot.innerHTML = innerHtml;
            }

            // `this` will be the overall tooltip
