    <button class="btn btn-square"><span class="icon-[tabler--chevron-up]"></span></button>
    <div class="tooltip-content tooltip-shown:opacity-100 tooltip-shown:visible" role="popover">
      <div class="tooltip-body bg-base-100 max-w-xs rounded-lg p-4 text-start shadow">
        <span class="text-base-content/90 text-lg font-medium">Popover title</span>
        <p class="text-base-content/80 text-base pt-4">
          This text serves as placeholder content for the popover, showcasing its overall look in the user interface.
        </p>
      </div>

Options usage

Trigger

Use the JavaScript option class [--trigger:{event}] to specify the event that opens the tooltip. The event options include hover, focus, or click. By default, the tooltip/popover is triggered on the hover event.

On focus

Utilize the provided example to trigger the tooltip/popover on the focus event. Either use the Tab key to open it or click on it.

<div class="tooltip [--trigger:focus]">
  <div class="tooltip-toggle">
    <button class="btn btn-square"><span class="icon-[tabler--chevron-up]"></span></button>
    <div class="tooltip-content tooltip-shown:opacity-100 tooltip-shown:visible" role="popover">
      <div class="tooltip-body bg-base-100 max-w-xs rounded-lg p-4 text-start shadow">
        <span class="text-base-content/90 text-lg font-medium">Popover title</span>
        <p class="text-base-content/80 text-base py-4">
          This text serves as placeholder content for the popover, showcasing its overall look in the user interface.
        </p>
        <a href="../../../docs/overlays/tooltip/" class="link link-animated link-primary text-base">Click me</a>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

On Hover

Utilize the provided example to trigger the tooltip/popover on the Hover event.

<div class="tooltip">
  <div class="tooltip-toggle">
    <button class="btn btn-square"><span class="icon-[tabler--chevron-up]"></span></button>
    <div class="tooltip-content tooltip-shown:opacity-100 tooltip-shown:visible" role="popover">
      <div class="tooltip-body bg-base-100 max-w-xs rounded-lg p-4 text-start shadow">
        <span class="text-base-content/90 text-lg font-medium">Popover title</span>
        <p class="text-base-content/80 text-base py-4">
          This text serves as placeholder content for the popover, showcasing its overall look in the user interface.
        </p>
        <a href="../../../docs/overlays/tooltip/" class="link link-animated link-primary text-base">Click me</a>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Interaction

Use the JavaScript option class [--interaction:{boolean}] to enable interactivity within the tooltip/popover content. Setting it to false will prevent interaction, causing the tooltip/popover to close upon clicking inside tooltip-content. By default, its value is true.

The provided example disables interaction with the popover content.

<div class="tooltip [--trigger:click] [--interaction:false]">
  <div class="tooltip-toggle">
    <button class="btn btn-square"><span class="icon-[tabler--chevron-up]"></span></button>
    <div class="tooltip-content tooltip-shown:opacity-100 tooltip-shown:visible " role="popover">
      <div class="tooltip-body bg-base-100 max-w-xs rounded-lg p-4 text-start shadow">
        <span class="text-base-content/90 text-lg font-medium">Popover title</span>
        <p class="text-base-content/80 text-base pt-4">
          This text serves as placeholder content for the popover, showcasing its overall look in the user interface.
        </p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Use the JavaScript option class [--strategy:{position}] to determine the placement strategy of the tooltip/popover. The position parameter can be set to either fixed or absolute.

When set to absolute, the tooltip/popover will be positioned relative to its parent element with the relative class, thereby confining the popover/tooltip within that container. By default, the value is fixed.

The provided example showcases the behavior of tooltips/popovers when utilizing the absolute positioning strategy.

<div class="tooltip show [--trigger:click] [--strategy:absolute] [--placement:bottom]">
  <div class="tooltip-toggle">
    <button class="btn btn-square"><span class="icon-[tabler--chevron-down]"></span></button>
    <div class="tooltip-content tooltip-shown:opacity-100 tooltip-shown:visible" role="popover">
      <div class="tooltip-body bg-base-100 w-64 sm:max-w-xs rounded-lg p-4 text-start shadow">
        <span class="text-base-content/90 text-lg font-medium">Popover title</span>
        <p class="text-base-content/80 text-base pt-4">
          This text serves as placeholder content for the popover, showcasing its overall look in the user interface.
        </p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

Prevent popper

Use the JavaScript option class [--prevent-popper:{boolean}] to manage the placement calculation with Popper.

When set to true, Popper will be prevented from calculating its position, resulting in the tooltip/popover remaining static and ceasing recalculation if there is insufficient space upon scrolling. By default, its value is false.

The provided example showcases the behavior of tooltips/popovers when prevent-popper is set to true.

<div class="tooltip show [--trigger:click] [--placement:bottom-start] [--prevent-popper:true]">
  <div class="tooltip-toggle">
    <button class="btn btn-square"><span class="icon-[tabler--chevron-down]"></span></button>
    <div class="tooltip-content tooltip-shown:opacity-100 tooltip-shown:visible" role="popover">
      <div class="tooltip-body bg-base-100 w-64 sm:max-w-xs rounded-lg p-4 text-start shadow">
        <span class="text-base-content/90 text-lg font-medium">Popover title</span>
        <p class="text-base-content/80 text-base pt-4">
          This text serves as placeholder content for the popover, showcasing its overall look in the user interface.
        </p>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

JavaScript behavior

Please refer to the Tooltip component documentation for JavaScript behavior in popover, since both tooltips and popovers utilize the tooltip plugin.
