feature_tooltip #

feature_tooltip is a Flutter package that provides a highly configurable tooltip widget. Unlike the built‑in Tooltip, this widget supports custom positioning, fine‑tuned styling, show/hide animations, extended display durations and an optional blurred backdrop. It's designed to be flexible enough for most UI requirements.

Features #

• Custom positioning – decide whether the tooltip appears above, below, to the left or to the right of the anchor. You can also fine‑tune the offset.
• Styling – customise padding, margin, background colour, text style, border radius, elevation and arrow dimensions.
• Animations – smooth fade and slide animations with configurable duration and easing curves.
• Extended timeout – choose how long the tooltip stays on screen. It can remain indefinitely until dismissed, or automatically disappear after a specified duration.
• Background blur – optionally blur the content behind the tooltip to draw attention.
• Triggers – show tooltips on tap, long‑press or manually through the API.

Getting Started #

Add the dependency to your project's pubspec.yaml:

dependencies:
  feature_tooltip:
    git:
      url: https://github.com/your‑username/feature_tooltip.git
      ref: main

Import it where you need the tooltip:

import 'package:feature_tooltip/feature_tooltip.dart';

Wrap the widget you want to anchor the tooltip to with FeatureTooltip. Pass the message or your own custom content along with any additional configuration:

FeatureTooltip(
  message: 'This is an advanced tooltip',
  direction: TooltipDirection.up,
  backgroundColor: Colors.blueGrey,
  textStyle: TextStyle(color: Colors.white),
  blurBackground: true,
  child: Icon(Icons.info_outline),
);
