Keeping interactive widgets in tooltips without keeping them open

[PPakalns]

egui 0.28 introduced:
Support interactive widgets in tool-tips #4596 by @emilk

This change allows to hover tool-tip and modify interactive widget inside tool-tip. (tool-tips can be hovered and they do not close if original item is not hovered anymore).

I am implementing functionality where hovering a button opens a tool-tip that shows the preview of the window that will be opened. I want to disable the functionality, which keeps tool-tip open when interactive widgets are present inside tool-tip.

I can disable widget interactivity by calling ui.disable() inside tool-tip, but it changes the styling of the tool-tip (everything is grayed out)

Is there another mechanism to revert to old functionality without UI look (styling) being changed?

Thank you for your help!

No, not right now. The thought was this: if you put an interactive widget in a tooltip, you should allow the user to click it. Putting an interactive widget where the user can't click it sounds like bad UX to me.
But you can make a PR to add a switch for this behavior in Style somewhere if you feel it is important.

Thank you for the quick answer. Will try to workaround around this by modifying styles or maybe making a PR.

Simple working workaround:

Instead of using:

response.on_hover_ui(|ui| {

});

You can do:

if response.hovered() {
    response.show_tooltip_ui(|ui| { ... });
}
