📚 Documentation

Provider

First thing you need is creating Tooltip provider

<ReactTooltips.Provider><ReactTooltips.Provider>

Display

Now you need to create display to display hints

<ReactTooltips.Provider>
	<ReactTooltips.Display key={"display"} ZIndex={9999} />
</ReactTooltips.Provider>

ZIndex is optional, so you don't have to specify it.

Tooltip

Now you can create tooltips!

But first you need to create hint element, that will display on hover

function hint(props: { position: React.Binding<UDim2> }) {
	const [state, setState] = React.useState(1);

	React.useEffect(() => {
		const connnection = UserInputService.InputBegan.Connect((input) => {
			if (input.UserInputType === Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1) {
				setState(state + 1);
			}
		});
		
		return () => connection.Disconnect()
	}, [state]);

	return <textlabel 
		Position={props.position} 
		Size={UDim2.fromScale(0.1, 0.1)} 
		Text={`Hello, ${state}!`} 
	/>;
}

First way to create tooltip, is to create hitbox

<ReactTooltips.Provider>
	<ReactTooltips.Display key={"display"} ZIndex={9999} />
	<imagelabel
		AnchorPoint={new Vector2(0.5, 0.5)}
		Size={UDim2.fromScale(0.25, 0.25)}
		Position={UDim2.fromScale(0.5, 0.5)}
		Image={"asset"}
	>
		<ReactTooltips.Tooltip
			key={"tooltip"} 
			follow_cursor={false} // alignment will not work if follow_cursor enabled
			aligment={"Right"} // Left | Right | Bottom | Top, you need to set alignment or follow_cursor
			appear_delay={1} // optional, appear delay in seconds, will display only after hovering for 1 second
			component={hint} // here you need to put hint component
		/>
	</imagelabel>
</ReactTooltips.Provider>;

Second way is using useTooltip hook, that allow more flexability

function ImageTooltip() {
	const [updateAbsolutePosition, updateAbsoluteSize, mouseEnter, mouseLeave] = ReactTooltips.useTooltip({
		follow_cursor: false, // alignment will not work if follow_cursor enabled
		aligment: "Right", // Left | Right | Bottom | Top, you need to set alignment or follow_cursor
		appear_delay: 1, // optional, appear delay in seconds, will display only after hovering for 1 second
		component: hint, // here you need to put hint component
	});

	return (
		<imagelabel
			AnchorPoint={new Vector2(0.5, 0.5)}
			Size={UDim2.fromScale(0.25, 0.25)}
			Image={"asset"}
			Change={{
				AbsolutePosition: updateAbsolutePosition,
				AbsoluteSize: updateAbsoluteSize,
			}}
			Event={{
				MouseEnter: mouseEnter,
				MouseLeave: mouseLeave,
			}}
		/>
	);
}

<ReactTooltips.Provider>
	<ReactTooltips.Display key={"display"} ZIndex={9999} />
	<ImageTooltip />
</ReactTooltips.Provider>;
