# # Point Style

This sample shows how to use the dataset point style in the tooltip instead of a rectangle to identify each dataset.

const config = { type: 'line', data: data, options: { interaction: { mode: 'index', }, plugins: { title: { display: true, text: (ctx) => 'Tooltip point style: ' + ctx.chart.options.plugins.tooltip.usePointStyle, }, tooltip: { usePointStyle: true, } } } };

        },
        plugins: {
          title: {
            display: true,
            text: (ctx) => 'Tooltip point style: ' + ctx.chart.options.plugins.tooltip.usePointStyle,
          },
          tooltip: {
            usePointStyle: true,
          }
        }
      }
    };
