React Tooltip Methods
This section describes members used to manipulate the UI component.

content()

An HTML element or a jQuery element when you use jQuery.

defaultOptions(rule)
Specifies the device-dependent default configuration properties for this component.
The component's default device properties.
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| device | | |
Device parameters. |
| options |
Options to be applied. |
defaultOptions is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to specify default properties for all instances of the Tooltip UI component in an application executed on the desktop.
jQuery
DevExpress.ui.dxTooltip.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the Tooltip properties
}
});Angular
import Tooltip, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/tooltip";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
constructor () {
Tooltip.defaultOptions<Properties>({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the Tooltip properties
}
});
}
}Vue
<template>
<div>
<DxTooltip id="tooltip1" />
<DxTooltip id="tooltip2" />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import DxTooltip from "devextreme-vue/tooltip";
import Tooltip from "devextreme/ui/tooltip";
Tooltip.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the Tooltip properties
}
});
export default {
components: {
DxTooltip
}
}
</script>React
import dxTooltip from "devextreme/ui/tooltip";
import Tooltip from "devextreme-react/tooltip";
dxTooltip.defaultOptions({
device: { deviceType: "desktop" },
options: {
// Here go the Tooltip properties
}
});
export default function App() {
return (
<div>
<Tooltip id="tooltip1" />
<Tooltip id="tooltip2" />
</div>
)
}You can also set rules for multiple device types:
jQuery
const devicesConfig = [
{ deviceType: 'desktop' },
{ deviceType: 'tablet' },
{ deviceType: 'phone' },
];
devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
DevExpress.ui.dxTooltip.defaultOptions({
device: deviceConfig,
options: {
// Here go the Tooltip properties
}
});
});Angular
import Tooltip, { Properties } from "devextreme/ui/tooltip";
// ...
export class AppComponent {
constructor () {
const devicesConfig = [
{ deviceType: 'desktop' },
{ deviceType: 'tablet' },
{ deviceType: 'phone' },
];
devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
Tooltip.defaultOptions<Properties>({
device: deviceConfig,
options: {
// Here go the Tooltip properties
}
});
});
}
}Vue
<template>
<div>
<DxTooltip />
</div>
</template>
<script>
import DxTooltip from "devextreme-vue/tooltip";
import Tooltip from "devextreme/ui/tooltip";
const devicesConfig = [
{ deviceType: 'desktop' },
{ deviceType: 'tablet' },
{ deviceType: 'phone' },
];
devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
Tooltip.defaultOptions({
device: deviceConfig,
options: {
// Here go the Tooltip properties
}
});
});
export default {
components: {
DxTooltip
}
}
</script>React
import dxTooltip from "devextreme/ui/tooltip";
import Tooltip from "devextreme-react/tooltip";
const devicesConfig = [
{ deviceType: 'desktop' },
{ deviceType: 'tablet' },
{ deviceType: 'phone' },
];
devicesConfig.forEach(deviceConfig => {
dxTooltip.defaultOptions({
device: deviceConfig,
options: {
// Here go the Tooltip properties
}
});
});
export default function App() {
return (
<div>
<Tooltip />
</div>
)
}dispose()
Disposes of all the resources allocated to the Tooltip instance.
jQuery
After calling this method, remove the DOM element associated with the UI component:
$("#myTooltip").dxTooltip("dispose");
$("#myTooltip").remove();Angular
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<dx-tooltip ...
*ngIf="condition">
</dx-tooltip>Vue
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
<template>
<DxTooltip ...
v-if="condition">
</DxTooltip>
</template>
<script>
import DxTooltip from 'devextreme-vue/tooltip';
export default {
components: {
DxTooltip
}
}
</script>React
Use conditional rendering instead of this method:
import React from 'react';
import Tooltip from 'devextreme-react/tooltip';
function DxTooltip(props) {
if (!props.shouldRender) {
return null;
}
return (
<Tooltip ... >
</Tooltip>
);
}
class App extends React.Component {
render() {
return (
<DxTooltip shouldRender="condition" />
);
}
}
export default App;element()
Gets the root UI component element.
An HTML element or a jQuery element when you use jQuery.
See Also
endUpdate()
Refreshes the UI component after a call of the beginUpdate() method.
The beginUpdate() and endUpdate() methods reduce the number of renders in cases where extra rendering can negatively affect performance.
See Also
getInstance(element)
Gets the instance of a UI component found using its DOM node.
The UI component's instance.
getInstance is a static method that the UI component class supports. The following code demonstrates how to get the Tooltip instance found in an element with the myTooltip ID:
// Modular approach
import Tooltip from "devextreme/ui/tooltip";
...
let element = document.getElementById("myTooltip");
let instance = Tooltip.getInstance(element) as Tooltip;
// Non-modular approach
let element = document.getElementById("myTooltip");
let instance = DevExpress.ui.dxTooltip.getInstance(element);See Also
hide()

A Promise that is resolved after the UI component is hidden. It is a native Promise or a jQuery.Promise when you use jQuery.
instance()
