I know that there are people ask kendo to prevent kendo tooltip from close/hide whenever we click outside the tooltip. They are suggesting it here but seems that it has not been implemented yet.
I couldn't find the method which closes/hides when we click outside kendo tooltip so far. I only found the event triggered when we click on close or cancel button on kendo tooltip. But is there any way/hackish way to achieve this using javascript/jquery/anything?
Like you see in link that you included the kendo tooltip (with autoHide: false
property) hides when you:
Until Telerik will not implement function to prevent it, the only way is using jquery event.stopImmediatePropagation()
. For example for block tootlip from hide when you click outside you can write:
$("#target").kendoTooltip({
autoHide: false
});
$('html').on('mousedown', function(e){
e.stopImmediatePropagation();
});
Working demo: http://dojo.telerik.com/ugUCI
Unfortunately it will prevent any html onmousedown events like DropDownLists/ComboBoxes hiding etc.
