Absolute position of tooltips
We would recommend to use the following code snippet:
// rootNode - root DOM element // e - is mouse event let rect = rootNode.getBoundingClientRect(); let coordinates = [e.clientX - rect.left - rootNode.clientLeft, e.clientY - rect.top - rootNode.clientTop];

Do you use Tooltip API? If so, you need to get the absolute postion of the element without scrolling using JavaScript.

I've tried using this:
var e = window.onmousemove;
var posX = e.clientX;
var posY = e.clientY;However, it doesn't work. How it can be done?

I have a flow map visual in which tooltips are overflowing out of page.
let rect = rootNode.getBoundingClientRect();
let coordinates = [e.clientX - rect.left - rootNode.clientLeft, e.clientY - rect.top - rootNode.clientTop];Will the above code work and where should i exactly put this code to work ?
I think so. You should add this code to a function that generates coordinates for Tootip Service.
