  ...

  const text = 'Some extra text here (advice)'

</div>

API

Parameters

You can use style parameter to customize position of your tooltip instance with CSS left: ..., top: ..., right: ..., bottom: .... Sometimes it's useful to combine several rules together. For example, if you want horizontally center tooltip use: left: 50%; width: $tooltip-width; margin-left: $tooltip-width / 2.

Why my overlap not working?

• Check CSS position: relative on your <div /> (on <div /> with use:tooltip)
• Also do not put CSS overflow: hidden on parent HTML tags (in case of your tooltip will go over parents)
• Please note that not all components can be overlaid with a tooltip because the target Svelte property is used under the hood:

new Tooltip({
  target: node,
  props: { text, style },
})

This property has some limitations. For example you cannot use it on <img/>, but you can wrap the image, so the tooltip will work:

<div use:tooltip={{text: 'Hi', style: 'left: 0; bottom: 0;'}}>
  <img src='...' alt='...'/>
</div>

• Check CSS z-index
