My sample file is 09_06_Viz in tooltip, and you can find it in the Chapter_09 folder of the Exercise Files collection.

And if I move my mouse pointer over one of the areas, you can see that I get a tooltip with the customer type, the product category and the order total. Order total affects the size of each of the areas and also their color. So darker areas have larger values and lighter have smaller values.
