tooltip

tooltip(position, string)
tooltip(x, y, string)

Creates a tooltip pointing at position displaying the given string

Attributes

visible::Bool = true sets whether the plot will be rendered or not.
overdraw::Bool = false sets whether the plot will draw over other plots. This specifically means ignoring depth checks in GL backends.
transparency::Bool = false adjusts how the plot deals with transparency. In GLMakie transparency = true results in using Order Independent Transparency.
inspectable::Bool = true sets whether this plot should be seen by DataInspector .
depth_shift::Float32 = 0f0 adjusts the depth value of a plot after all other transformations, i.e. in clip space, where 0 <= depth <= 1 . This only applies to GLMakie and WGLMakie and can be used to adjust render order (like a tunable overdraw).
space::Symbol = :data sets the transformation space for positions of markers. See Makie.spaces() for possible inputs.

offset = 10 sets the offset between the given position and the tip of the triangle pointing at that position.
placement = :above sets where the tooltipü should be placed relative to position . Can be :above , :below , :left , :right .
align = 0.5 sets the alignment of the tooltip relative position . With align = 0.5 the tooltip is centered above/below/left/right the position .
backgroundcolor = :white sets the background color of the tooltip.
triangle_size = 10 sets the size of the triangle pointing at position .
outline_color = :black sets the color of the tooltip outline.
outline_linewidth = 2f0 sets the linewidth of the tooltip outline.
outline_linestyle = nothing sets the linestyle of the tooltip outline.
textpadding = (4, 4, 4, 4) sets the padding around text in the tooltip. This is given as (left, right, bottom top) offsets.
textcolor = theme(scene, :textcolor) sets the text color.
textsize = 16 sets the text size.
font = theme(scene, :font) sets the font.
strokewidth = 0 : Gives text an outline if set to a positive value.
strokecolor = :white sets the text outline color.
justification = :left sets whether text is aligned to the :left , :center or :right within its bounding box.
