Tool Tips Not Working

Hi
My Tool tips wont display at all only the icon/image when inspecting the element there's only the code to display the image no content or link.
My site is using UIkit for the tool tip styling http://yootheme.com/demo/themes/joomla/2014/avenue/index.php/features/uikit

The validation error Tool tips display perfectly.

I tried the z order fix in a custom css but it had no effect. 😟
This is not too big an issue for me as I really don't like the icon based Tool tip.

Is there a way to to make the actual controls or just the labels display a tool tip on hover over instead ?
Thanks in advance
Chris

Hi Chris,

since the validation tooltips work fine then my guess would be a conflict with something else on your page, maybe a CSS conflict, I can't tell without checking your form.

Hi Max
See your pm for the 1 control testform link
Unfortunately is the same deal with only 1 dropdown and only a render html in the load event
All this digging has revealed the rendred html comes out very different so i suspect its a bug with the warp or another theme component rewriting things.
I have how ever managed to get the ukit toolips to work famously on the labels alone by simply manualy adding the "data-uk-tooltip=" and a "title=" aributes in the label line eg

<label title="This Is A Tool Tip" for="dropdown1" data-uk-tooltip="" class="control-label gcore-label-left tipped_label">Dropdown Label<i class="fa fa-exclamation-circle input-tooltip" style="color:#2693FF; padding-left:5px;"></i></label>

so can i simply add these 2 custom attributes in the designer for the labels ? and what field would they go in class extra params ?
Sorry to take up your time with this
Thanks Again
Chris

Hi Chris,

unfortunately no, you can't add any extra label attributes, you can add them to the field though.

You may however add the attributes to the labels using JS on page load, but I'm not sure if this will work since the uikit tooltips may have been initialized by then.

Ah Ok
Thanks
I noticed that its the same deal with hyperlinks in the JCE editor there seems to be no where to put custom attributes into elements this is odd as this would quite useful and I cant be only one who has wanted to do this.
There is a editor button for attributes but u still cant add a custom one.

For JCE I think that you can click "view source" and edit the code, then it will not remove your new attributes, didn't try this myself though!
