Tooltips are visual labels shown when hovering over certain elements. They are customizable and can be used to show contextual info like the name of a file or color style.

Basics

  • Tooltips are activated through the on hover behavior contextual toolbar
  • Tooltip appearance is managed through the Styles tab in the right sidebar
  • Tooltip behaviors are contextual to what they are applied to, for example a color swatch tooltip when enabled will automatically say ‘Copy HEX’ and ‘HEX copied’.
