tooltip positioning / placement

[Yohn]

congrats on releasing 2.3.0!
I was checking out some of the docs and saw that tooltips data-placement is not working correctly. I think its because of the one pull request that makes options set in javascript override the options that were set in the html but I'm not sure..

commit that I believe started this = 1fe4ed8 as @gsmet pointed out in #6737

I'm not sure, but I tried to set tooltips as simply as possible on my code:

<a href="#" data-toggle="tooltip" title="first tooltip">hover over me</a>

But it doesn't work.

[EDIT] SORRY. Didn't saw "For performance reasons, the tooltip and popover data-apis are opt in, meaning you must initialize them yourself."

good call for this.

theres another issue with tooltips where it calls the modals "hide" busy making a test case for it at the mo :P but the direction thing is a bit of an issue aswell...

@WilliamStam: erm, you mean #6942?

[WilliamStam]

o sweet.. thanks.. i did a quick look through open issues and didnt see it

blind

thanks for that

does BS have tests? seems every version they break tooltips

[cvrebert]

@WilliamStam: Yes; browse the damn source tree: bootstrap/tree/master/js/tests. No idea how thorough they are though.

I think the bug found in document is due to 'selector' option.
If used this option, you need to set data-placement in the element which you called $().tooltip()

Just use the following code in javascript section of your page :-
$('a').tooltip();
and it should start working .
Also they have mentioned on the Tooltip section as "For performance reasons, the tooltip and popover data-apis are opt in, meaning you must initialize them yourself."
Jsfiddle for you jsfiddle.net/shail/vSTLU/2/show

Yes, but the documentation page is still broken!

[inDream]

@BenMorel If you destroy the tooltips in container with $('.tooltip-demo').tooltip('destroy') then create it with $('a[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip() would make it work.

As I mentioned before, it's due to options are only considered for target element when tooltips initialized.
It caused this bug if you used 'selector' option.

[BenMorel]

@inDream Yes, but it would be nice to push a change to the doc :-)
