I need to implement a dynamic tooltip which automatically moves itself when out of screen, as well as its arrow, depending on the position of the label. However, I am finding difficulty to do this since the tooltip's width changes depending on its content. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Scenario 1:
Scenario 2:
HTML:
<th *ngFor="let field of columnFields">
<a class="column-label">
<div class="custom-tooltip">
<div class="tooltip__initiator">{{field.name}}</div>
<div class="tooltip__item"[innerHTML]="getTooltipText(field.name)"></div>
</div>
</a>
</th>
STYLE:
.custom-tooltip {
position: relative;
}
.tooltip__initiator {
cursor: pointer;
z-index: 5;
}
.tooltip__item {
font-family: "ABeeZee";
font-size: 13px;
line-height: 18px;
position: absolute;
position: absolute;
min-width: 132px;
max-width: 320px;
text-align: center;
padding: 12px;
visibility: hidden;
opacity: 0;
color: white;
border: 1px solid #cecece;
border-radius: 3px;
font-weight: 500;
z-index: 6;
background: blue;
border: 1px solid blue;
border-radius: 8px;
white-space: break-spaces;
inline-size: max-content;
top: calc(70% + 1em);
}
.tooltip__item:after {
content: "";
display: block;
position: absolute;
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-style: solid;
}
.custom-tooltip .tooltip__initiator:hover ~ .tooltip__item {
left: 50%;
visibility: visible;
opacity: 1;
}
.custom-tooltip .tooltip__item:after {
left: 50%;
top: -0.5em;
border-width: 0 1em 0.6em 1em;
border-color: transparent transparent blue transparent;
border-radius: 8px;
