Tooltip Not Working The Way I Expected

[s.arndt]

Hi

Downloaded and installed your Tooltip Plugin. Tried setting the Background Color (Navy Blue), Font Color (White), Font Size (16), etc. and the Tooltip stays the same size (small) and colors. Is there something else I need to do to make this work?

I was able to change the Theme from cream to blue and that worked.

I was hoping that the Rich Text Editor would allow me to have Paragraphs in the Content. But the tooltip shows it all in one paragraph. Is it designed to allow multiple paragaraphs and other special formatting?

Is there a way to have an Option Set that would provide the Content based on the Trigger ID? And in Rich Text Format?

Basically, I’m thinking of setting an Option Set that had

Trigger ID
Content

And I could put the content for every element’s ID in one option set and then set the appropriate ID at run time based on which Element was hovered. And the Content would be stored in the Option Set as Rich Text Format.

Thanks

We’ve tested style features but the issue you reported is not reproducing on our side. Can you please make sure to check “use custom style” and give it another try? If that doesn’t work for you, please let me know.

I’m afraid, it’s not possible. You can only add paragraphs if the content is static. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Could you please help us by providing a bit more details like sharing a video recording showing your use case and the desired result? (here or via dm) This will decrease misunderstanding possibility.

Thank you! Looking forward to your reply.

Don’t have a video…But my thinking is:

Option Set or Data Type
– Attribute ID - ID applied to the element that the Tooltip is related to. Also in the Tooltip.
– Content - Text to be displayed in the tooltip for the element.
(maybe font and position attributes as well)

Goal: Centralized Tooltips - ease of maintaining them.

Example: Each tooltip is a separate record in the option set or Data Type):

TOOLTIP1
This is the text that would be displayed for Tooltip1

TOOLTIP2
This is the text that would be displayed for tooltip2

TOOLTIP3
This is the text that would be displayed for tooltip3

Setup:

On page, you could have multiple Tooltips - each set to a different ID Attribute record in the Option Set or Data Type. The tooltip would pull in the appropriate Content based on the ID Attribute and display it when mouse hovers over the related element. Positioning and font would be specific to each Tooltip.

In workflow, when an element is hovered, the Action would pull in the appropriate Content based on the ID Attribute and display it when mouse hovers over the related element. You could have one or many Tooltips elements on the screen depending on setting up the position and other display attributes for the Tooltip in the Action.

Hope this gives you a better idea of what I’m thinking of…

Hi @s.arndt,
Thanks for the details.

It should be possible to achieve your desired functionality using Bubble’s dynamic content capabilities. You can configure the plugin element to display dynamic content based on your specific use case. However, providing specific instructions for setting up a custom use case is beyond the scope of our services.

If you encounter any issues with the plugin’s functionality or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’ll be more than happy to help you troubleshoot and find a solution.

Sorry for not being able to help with this. Hope for your understanding.

Best regards,
