Help:Tooltip

The tooltip functionality was re-factored in and together with the jquery plugin qtip2 builds the central component for displaying context information.

Tooltip
The tooltip supports a hover like behaviour [such as ] for entities marked with  (properties etc.) or a persistent like behaviour [such as ] allowing interactions with the tooltip for entities marked with.

Configuration

 * Objects marked with smwttinline will adopt a hover like behaviour with no closing button and will automatically hide by crossing over the tooltip border.
 * Warning tooltip will behave in a similar manner as smwttinline marked objects.
 * Service link tooltip will have a closing button and allow interactions until an event will close the tooltip
 * Info tooltip will behave like the a service link tooltip

Styling
Please have a look at  for adjustments related to the icons used and for any other related styling isses see style documentation, demos and tips, and implementation samples.

Why qtip2
Tipsy and the jquery UI tooltip allow simple tooltip functionality but when it comes to enhanced user interactions it needs a more comprehensive plug-in that can provide greater flexibility.
