Recharts: Turn off background hover for bar charts
You can use the cursor prop on the <Tooltip /> to achieve what you need:
<Tooltip cursor={{fill: '#f00'}} />
Here's a working fiddle I made based on some example from their docs.
You can simply use transparent as a value for the fill property.
const {BarChart, Bar, XAxis, YAxis, CartesianGrid, Tooltip, Legend} = Recharts;
const data = [
{name: 'Page A', uv: 4000, pv: 2400, amt: 2400},
{name: 'Page B', uv: 3000, pv: 1398, amt: 2210},
{name: 'Page C', uv: 2000, pv: 9800, amt: 2290},
{name: 'Page D', uv: 2780, pv: 3908, amt: 2000},
{name: 'Page E', uv: 1890, pv: 4800, amt: 2181},
{name: 'Page F', uv: 2390, pv: 3800, amt: 2500},
{name: 'Page G', uv: 3490, pv: 4300, amt: 2100},
];
const SimpleBarChart = React.createClass({
render () {
return (
<BarChart width={600} height={300} data={data}
margin={{top: 5, right: 30, left: 20, bottom: 5}}>
<CartesianGrid strokeDasharray="3 3"/>
<XAxis dataKey="name"/>
<YAxis/>
<Tooltip cursor={{fill: 'transparent'}}/>
<Legend />
<Bar dataKey="pv" fill="#8884d8" />
<Bar dataKey="uv" fill="#82ca9d" />
</BarChart>
);
}
})
ReactDOM.render(
<SimpleBarChart />,
document.getElementById('container')
);body {
margin: 0;
}
#container {
-webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
-moz-box-sizing: border-box;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 10px;
width: 800px;
height: 800px;
background-color: #fff;

<!-- This element's contents will be replaced with your component. -->
</div>The grey area you mentioned is called cursor. Quoting the Tooltip API docs:
If set false, no cursor will be drawn when tooltip is active.
So the answer to your question is:
<Tooltip cursor={false} />
