[SOLVED] Sticky Tooltip - howto?

[ploeger]

Hi!

I want to use the tooltip in my zimlet to show some details. In the content of the tooltip is a link, that can be clicked. However, moving away from the matched text closes the tooltip.

I read something about a sticky tooltip, configured that in my zimlet definition file, but it doesn't work somehow. Perhaps, because I fill the tooltip during runtime, not by an actionUrl.

Can somebody tell me how to develop such a tooltip or point me to examples?

Thanks.

Kind regards
Dennis

Hi!

Ah! I got it. You have to override ZmZimletBase.prototype.hoverOver and remove the code with the AjxCallback from the popup-call. After that, also override hoverOut with nothing.

That way your popup stays when you move out the matched element and even if you move the mouse over the popup.

You have to be sure to close the popup afterwards using a close button or something or else it stays.

Kind regards
Dennis
