Overview
The Angular Tooltip component is a pop-up that shows information or a message when users hover over, click, focus on, or touch an image, button, anchor tag, etc. The information displayed in the Tooltip can include simple text, images, hyperlinks, and custom templates. The component supports built-in themes such as Material, Bootstrap, and Fabric.
Angular Tooltip code example
Easily get started with the Angular Tooltip using a few simple lines of HTML and TS code example as demonstrated below. Also explore our Angular Tooltip example that shows you how to render and configure a Tooltip in Angular.
<div class="control-section">
<!-- Tooltip element -->
<ejs-tooltip id='tooltip' content='Tooltip content' target="#target">
<button ejs-button id="target">Show Tooltip</button>
</ejs-tooltip>
</div>import { Component, ViewEncapsulation } from '@angular/core';
@Component({
selector: 'my-app',
template: 'default.html',
encapsulation: ViewEncapsulation.None
})
export class AppComponent { }Position and mouse trails
The Angular Tooltip has twelve different options to position it around the target. You can configure the Tooltip to follow the mouse or not. To position the tip pointer, there are four options: right, left, top, and bottom.
Smart positioning/auto positioning
The Angular Tooltip intelligently auto positions its content and arrows. It also fits in the best location of the view port or container.
Dynamic content
You can load dynamic content for Tooltip on demand using an AJAX callback.
Animation effect
Show or hide completely customizable animations in the Angular Tooltip. You can include animation effect, duration, and delay. You can also control transition effects at the application level.
Custom tooltip
Using templates, the tooltip content is loaded with inline HTML, images, iframe, videos, and maps. You can also add a title to the content.
Show and hide
You can control the show and hide triggers of the Tooltip using auto, hover, click, focus, and custom modes. Implement your own custom mode to control the show and hide behaviors.
Offsets
Customize the offset position of a tooltip from the target element. This offset value is defined in pixels.
Sticky Tooltip
Prevent the tooltip from hiding after a short duration using the sticky mode.
Triggers
You can show tooltips when you hover over, click, touch, and focus on any element.
Fancy tooltip
You can completely customize the tooltip using CSS.
Dimension Customization
Both automatic and custom pixel values can be used to set tooltip’s height and width.


Scroll mode
When the tooltip’s size exceeds the container space, the scroll mode displays an HTML scroll bar.
Built-in themes
Angular Tooltip is shipped with several built-in themes: Material, Bootstrap, Fabric (Office 365), Tailwind CSS, and high contrast. Users can customize any one of these built-in themes or create new themes to achieve their own desired look and feel. They can do this by either simply overriding SASS variables or using our Theme Studio application.


Easy integration
You just need a message and target element to make the Tooltip fully functional. It will work out of the box. However, it provides many options to change the position, animation, and appearance.
Touch-friendly
The Angular Tooltip responds to screen size and adapts its contents to fit any touch device. It recognizes touch gestures and displays its message when performing a touch and hold action. It will hide after 1500ms. This provides the best user experience for touch devices such as phones and tablets.


Schematics
Angular schematics are a workflow tool that allows you to generate components, modules, and resolve dependency issues. The main goal of schematics is to simplify development in the Angular environment.
HTML5 SVG and canvas
Angular Tooltip supports both SVG and canvas elements. Users can directly attach tooltips to HTML5 <svg> or <canvas> elements to show data visualization elements.
Angular version compatibility
Through continuous improvement in Angular versions, the Angular Tooltip is kept up to date to make it compatible with the latest version.
