Tooltips and popovers are used to add additional content, like short
notes. They can be useful for short help-documentation. A tooltip is
used to embed a short note into a tag; by default they are activated by
hovering over the tag. A popover is used to embed a longer note into a
tag; by default they are activated by clicking on the tag. A tooltip has
only a text title
; a popover has a title
,
which is generally text, and content
, which can be
HTML.
bs_button("Hover for tooltip") %>%
bs_embed_tooltip(title = "I'm a tooltip")
bs_button("Click for popover") %>%
bs_embed_popover(title = "I'm a popover", content = "Really!")
Both of these functions have an additional argument,
placement
, which defaults to "top"
, following
the Bootstrap default. The possible values are
c("top", "bottom", "left", "right", "auto")
.
bs_button("Another tooltip") %>%
bs_embed_tooltip(title = "I'm on the right", placement = "right")
Tooltips and popovers are not activted by default in Bootstrap. For
either of them to work properly, you will have to activate them on your
page, using the use_bs_tooltip()
or
use_bs_popover()
functions. For each page you write, you
will need to call each function once, at most.
