Frequently Asked Questions

Why can't I put a Tooltip around just anything?

Tooltips need to be accessible to keyboard and screen reader users, so we want to ensure that they are only placed on focusable and hoverable elements. For example, plain text on a page isn't focusable, so keyboard and screen reader users would be unable to access the information in that tooltip.

If you need to display some additional context, consider using ContextualHelp.
