[Chartjs]-Chartjs / ng2-charts line on hover does not work

1👍

TRY using the following code :

chart component

import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { HistoricalBpiService } from '../../services/historical-bpi.service';
import './plugin-hoverline';

@Component({
   selector: 'app-banner',
   templateUrl: './banner.component.html',
   styleUrls: ['./banner.component.scss']
})
export class BannerComponent implements OnInit {

   currentDate: string = new Date().toJSON().slice(0, 10).replace(/-/g, '-');

   private dataUrl: string = 'historical/close.json?start=2013-09-01&end=' + this.currentDate;

   constructor(
      private historicalBpiService: HistoricalBpiService
   ) { }

   // lineChart

   public lineChartData: any = [
      { data: [], label: 'BTC', pointHoverRadius: 5, steppedLine: false }
   ];

   public lineChartLabels: Array<any> = [];

   public lineChartOptions: any = {
      responsive: true,
      maintainAspectRatio: false,
      layout: {
         padding: 0
      },
      lineOnHover: {
         enabled: true,
         lineColor: '#bbb',
         lineWidth: 1
      },
      scales: {
         yAxes: [{
            display: false,
            scaleLabel: {
               display: false,
               labelString: 'USD'
            },
            ticks: {
               //min: 0,
               //max: 5000,
               stepSize: 500,
               display: false,
               mirror: true,
               labelOffset: 7,
               padding: -10,
               callback: function (value, index, values) {
                  return '$' + value;
               }
            },
            gridLines: {
               display: true,
               tickMarkLength: 0
            }
         }],
         xAxes: [{
            ticks: {
               display: false,
               mirror: true
            },
            gridLines: {
               display: false,
               tickMarkLength: 0
            }
         }]
      },
      elements: {
         point: {
            radius: 0
         },
         line: {
            tension: 0, // 0 disables bezier curves
         }
      },
      hover: {
         mode: 'nearest',
         intersect: true
      },
      tooltips: {
         mode: 'nearest',
         intersect: true,
         backgroundColor: 'rgb(95,22,21)',
         callbacks: {
            title: function (tooltipItems, data) {
               return (tooltipItems[0] || {})['xLabel'];
            },
            label: function (tooltipItem, data) {
               return '$ ' + tooltipItem.yLabel.toLocaleString();
            },
            labelColor: function (tooltipItem, chart) {
               let dataset = chart.config.data.datasets[tooltipItem.datasetIndex];
               return {
                  backgroundColor: dataset.backgroundColor
               }
            }
         }
      }
   };
   public lineChartColors: Array<any> = [
      {
         backgroundColor: 'rgba(199,32,48,0.9',
         borderColor: 'rgb(95,22,21);',
         pointBackgroundColor: 'rgba(218,208,163,0.9)',
         pointHoverBackgroundColor: 'rgba(218,208,163,0.9)',
         pointHoverBorderColor: 'rgb(218,208,163)'

      }
   ];
   public lineChartLegend: boolean = false;
   public lineChartType: string = 'line';


   // events
   public chartClicked(e: any): void {
      console.log(e);
   }

   public chartHovered(e: any): void {
      console.log(e);
   }

   ngOnInit() {
      this.historicalBpiService.getBpiData(this.dataUrl)
         .subscribe(
         res => {
            //this.lineChartData = Object.keys(res.bpi).map(function (key) { return res.bpi[key];});
            this.lineChartData[0].data = Object.values(res.bpi);
            this.lineChartLabels = Object.keys(res.bpi);
            //console.log(this.lineChartData,this.lineChartLabels);
         }
         )
   }
}

You should set the pointHoverRadius property inside lineChartData array instead of lineChartColors, also set the intersect property to true for both hover and tooltips
