+By default, these options apply to both the hover and tooltip interactions. The same options can be set in the `options.hover` namespace, in which case they will only affect the hover interaction. Similarly, the options can be set in the `options.plugins.tooltip` namespace to independently configure the tooltip interactions.

+When configuring the interaction with the graph via `interaction`, `hover` or `tooltips`, a number of different modes are available.
 
 `options.hover` and `options.plugins.tooltip` extend from `options.interaction`. So if `mode`, `intersect` or any other common settings are configured only in `options.interaction`, both hover and tooltips obey that.
