DefaultTooltipStyle

DefaultTooltipStyle

is a low-level option for tooltips that specifies the default style to use in displaying their elements.

Details

  • DefaultTooltipStyle->style specifies that the elements should effectively be replaced by Style[label,style].
  • TooltipStyle is applied after DefaultTooltipStyle.
  • The typical default value is DefaultTooltipStyle->"TooltipLabel", which references a named style in the stylesheet Core.nb. This style mimics the default appearance of system tooltips.
  • DefaultTooltipStyle->{} introduces no default style specifications, thereby effectively allowing all outside style specifications in.
  • DefaultTooltipStyle->style makes any specifications in style override corresponding outside style specifications.
