    Hi,

    I’m working with WjTreeView. But i can’t find no way to show tooltip when user hover on a TreeNode, or it’s header.

    Is there any way to show tooltip in WjTreeView?

    Thanks a lot.

    Nghia.

    Hi,

    To implement the required functionality, we need to first create a new instance of tooltip by using the following format:

    let tooltip = new Tooltip();
    

    After initalizing the tooltip, we need to iterate through all the nodes of TreeView using nodes property of TreeView, traverse using next and previous property of TreeNode class and then we can set the tooltip on the hostElement of the node using setToolTip method.

    Please refer to the code snippet below:

    for (let node = tree.nodes[0]; node; node = node.next(false)) {
       let tooltipContent = wjCore.format(
         "<b>Header Node:</b> {hasChildren}, <br> <b>Level:</b> {level},<br><b>Value:</b> {dataItem.header}",
         node
       );
    
       //setting tooltip content for each node
       tt.setTooltip(node.element, tooltipContent);
     }
    

    Please refer to the sample on the link provided below:

    Thank you

    Hi sharad,

    Thanks for your great answer.

    But actualy, I just wanna show default tooltips without customize them. So I found another way to make it works.

    For each Node of TreeView’s Nodes, I use setAttribute() function to add a title for each NodeElement.

    Please refer to the code snippet below:

    // iterating through nodes in Tree View
      for (let node = tree.nodes[0]; node; node = node.next(false)) {
        // use default tooltip
        node.element.setAttribute("title", node.element.innerText);
      }
    

    Thank you again and have a nice day! :smiley:

    Using title attribute works too. Thank you for sharing your approach.
