Well, that’s a wrap. No, not a flex-wrap, but rather today marks a new day, week, month, season, aaaand new edition of What’s important (#18), bringing you the best content that CSS developers have produced over the last couple of weeks or so.
How to create delayed-then-instant tooltips (and why)
Abhishek Jakhar explained why tooltips should be delayed then instant (basically, so that we don’t trigger them accidentally, and then when we don’t want them anymore, so that they disappear immediately). Abhishek showed us how to implement all of that, too. One thing that I’d like to point out is that if the hover-able region is too small, the tooltip can be de-triggered unintentionally, so I’d keep the delay in that case.
Chris Coyier then responded to that with a modern implementation that utilizes interest invokers, which come with two key CSS properties: interest-delay-start and interest-delay-end. Only Chrome supports interest invokers at the moment, but progressive enhancement, right?
