HoverTool showing canvas coordinates not data coordinates

I don’t think this is mentioned in the other hover tool issues, but I might have missed it.

Using $x, $y in HoverTool displays the canvas coordinates, not the data coordinates as I believe it is supposed to. Using $sx, $sy displays the canvas coordinates as well.

e.g.

from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, show
from bokeh.models import HoverTool

output_file("hover.html")

hover = HoverTool(
            tooltips=[
                ("index", "$index"),
                ("data (x,y)", "($x, $y)"),
                ("canvas (x,y)", "($sx, $sy)")
                ])

TOOLS = [hover]

p = figure(plot_width=400, plot_height=400, title=None, tools=TOOLS)

p.circle([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [2, 5, 8, 2, 7], size=10)

show(p)

produces

A quick workaround: when referencing the column names using the “@” notation, the tooltips are presented correctly

from bokeh.plotting import figure, output_file, show
from bokeh.models import HoverTool

hover = HoverTool(
            tooltips=[
                ("index", "$index"),
                ("data (using $) (x,y)", "($x, $y)"),
                ("data (using @) (x,y)", "(@x, @y)"),
                ("canvas (x,y)", "($sx, $sy)")
                ])

TOOLS = [hover]
p = figure(plot_width=400, plot_height=400, title=None, tools=TOOLS)
p.circle([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [2, 5, 8, 2, 7], size=10)
show(p)

@w1res there might be something specific to lines which are more complicated due to their connectivity. However, please open a new issue so this can be tracked and prioritized independently.
