Tooltip

Tooltip provides additional information and should not have very long texts, buttons and links. It should be used to add information that helps the understanding of a term or an interface element.

Its firing happens by placing the mouse cursor over the element, which can be a text, icon, link, button, badges, tags, among others.

Good habits​

  • Use short texts inside and remember that they are not meant to replace a Help Center article
  • Use to add information when it is not visible
  • Avoid using too many Tooltips on the same screen
  • Do not use to provide obvious or redundant content, thus avoiding excess information in the interface
  • Do not use to give essential information for task completion
  • Do not use very long links, icons, images and texts (maximum 100 characters and two lines)
