Please, does anybody know where to set up the Tooltip duration for Chronoforms? I.e. where the appropriate file is located so I can change the duration parameter? i need to shos Tooltip for a longer time cause it contains more text...

Thanks a lot!!!

Hi jiri,

There is no 'duration' (length of time) that I know of. The tooltip shows as long as your mouse is over the icon.

Or do you mean 'length' (number of characters)? in that case you can edit the Tooltip text in the Forrm HTML box on the Form Code tab in the Form Editor. There is no limit there - though I guess you may break the CSS at some point. Very long tooltips are better added as small text on the form page.

Thanks a lot Bob,

I found this link:

and the Tooltip really disappears after ca. 10 seconds although I do not move the cursor a micron from the icon...check the test site here - Tooltip is in that "i" icon in each record line...

Hi medaacek,

I've no idea if that will work in current browsers or with the Joomla tooltips but you can add the attribute in the Form HTML box on the Form Code tab.

I found easier solution and I think it might be useful for others as well - the highly customizable javsScript ToolTip from Walter Zorn - easy to install and use:
