Tooltip goes behind a cell in recycler view
I am showing the tooltip in a recycler view on cells . When a tooltip text is long, a tooltip is shown on a cell but a portion of it goes behind another cell in the recycler view and the arrow also goes a bit above not getting aligned with the view
Screenshots below:
Code i use:
override fun onBindViewHolder(holder: ViewHolder, position: Int) {
holder.mTitle.text = metricObject[position].name ?: ""
holder.metricInfoIcon.setOnClickListener {
val tooltipPosition = ToolTip.POSITION_RIGHT_TO
val tooltipAlign = ToolTip.ALIGN_CENTER
var tooltipText: String = metricObject[position].definition ?: ""
displayToolTip(
tooltipText,
holder.metricInfoIcon,
holder.rootLayout,
tooltipPosition,
tooltipAlign
)
}
}
private fun displayToolTip(tootipText: String,imageView: ImageView,view: ViewGroup,position: Int, align: Int) {
handler?.removeCallbacksAndMessages(null)
toolTipsManager?.findAndDismiss(imageView)
// get message from edit text
val text: String = tootipText.trim()
// set tooltip on text view
// check condition
if (!text.isEmpty()) {
// when message is not equal to empty
// create tooltip
toolTipsManager = ToolTipsManager(this);
val builder = ToolTip.Builder(view.context, imageView,view, text, position)
//builder.setElevation(f)
// set align
builder.setAlign(align)
builder.setTextAppearance(R.style.TooltipTextAppearance)
val typeface = ResourcesCompat.getFont(context, R.font.inter_semibold)
if (typeface != null) {
builder.setTypeface(typeface)
};
// set background color
builder.setBackgroundColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context,R.color.tooltip_color))
// show tooltip
toolTipsManager!!.show(builder.build())
handler = Handler(Looper.getMainLooper());
handler?.postDelayed({
toolTipsManager?.findAndDismiss(imageView)
}, 3000)
} else {
}
}
