Tooltip

Not released yet. This is on main and is not in any published version yet. It will not install today.

Tooltip draws the bubble a short hint sits in: a label on the surface colour, with an optional icon on either side. Like the web component, it only draws the bubble. To show a hint when an icon is pressed, use InfoTip. See the web Tooltip for the browser version.

Basic usage

Positioned by hand

It takes Flex props, so you can place it over other content yourself.

Differences from the web

  • On the web Tooltip hides itself on screens up to the m breakpoint, where there is no hover. On a phone it always shows.
  • There is no fade-in animation and no tooltip role, which React Native does not have.
  • A string label is drawn on one line. Pass an element for anything else.
