How I create tooltips in Kinetic-Web, Application Studio

Has anyone figured out tooltips in Kinetic-Web ?

Had a request to create a couple of tooltips, no built in support in Kinetic-Web as far as I have seen, so this is what I do now. It’s not great but maybe someone will find it useful.

Looks like this:

When button is pressed I open a erp-message-handler, for example:

Set button text to “?” and button properties are:

And you’ll need a simple event for the button press to show the message:

message handler params are:

oh, and you will likely want to put the control and the button in a two-column div and play with how much real-estate you give the control vs button:

Feels like alot for a tooltip, but writing this post takes longer than actually doing it.

Now someone tell me I’m wrong and there IS support for tooltips :face_with_thermometer:

Whether there IS functionality for this or not… great work on your solution!

There’s a tooltip request in their backlog, but it has not been addressed yet and has no indication as to when. So, as of now, your solution will have to be what’s done. Would be dope if we could hijack the title, though.
