Tooltip (Commented Out)

Note: Tooltip component is commented out in the current version (v2.2.7) but may be available in future versions.

// TODO: Enable when ready (from source comments)
// function Tooltip(props: TooltipProps): JSX.Element;

Common Types

// Floating UI anchor configuration for positioning
interface AnchorProps {
  /** Anchor position relative to trigger */
  to?: 
    | 'top' | 'top start' | 'top end'
    | 'right' | 'right start' | 'right end'  
    | 'bottom' | 'bottom start' | 'bottom end'
    | 'left' | 'left start' | 'left end';
  /** Gap between trigger and floating element */
  gap?: number;
  /** Offset from default position */
  offset?: number;
  /** Padding from viewport edges */
  padding?: number;
}

// Common close function type for overlay components
type CloseFunction = (
  focusableElement?: HTMLElement | React.MutableRefObject<HTMLElement | null>
) => void;

// Base overlay render props
interface BaseOverlayRenderProps {
  open: boolean;
  close: CloseFunction;
}

Focus Management

All overlay components implement proper focus management:

Focus Trapping: Focus is trapped within the overlay when open
Initial Focus: Can specify which element receives focus when opened
Focus Restoration: Focus returns to trigger element when closed
Escape Key: ESC key closes overlays by default
Click Outside: Clicking outside closes overlays (configurable)

Portal Rendering

Overlay components can render in portals to avoid z-index and overflow issues:

// Render in portal (outside normal DOM tree)
<DialogPanel portal className="...">
  Content renders at document body level
</DialogPanel>

// Render in-place (default)
<DialogPanel className="...">
  Content renders where declared
</DialogPanel>

Transition Support

All overlay components support smooth transitions:

<Dialog open={isOpen} onClose={setIsOpen} transition>
  <DialogBackdrop 
    transition
    className="duration-300 ease-out data-[closed]:opacity-0"
  />
  <DialogPanel 
    transition
    className="duration-300 ease-out data-[closed]:scale-95 data-[closed]:opacity-0"
  >
    {/* Content */}
  </DialogPanel>
</Dialog>
