Feature Request Description

Introduce opt-in feature to show alternative tooltip in a number of components. This tooltip comes with specific design and accessibility improving the user experience.

The Tooltip:

  • is a popup component with a specific design
  • contains text only
  • remains open on hover to enable text selection
  • pops-up on hover | focus | CTRL + Q
  • should be built as opt-in feature - apps to decide if they get the native HTML tooltip or a custom one
  • should popup for long texts to display the full text when truncation occur?
  • mobile gestures to see the tooltip?

Proposed Solution

TBD - the spec is currently in progress.
