[IGN-15891] Ignition 8.3 Perspective Form tooltip issue

Ignition

Hi everyone,

I’ve run into an issue with tooltips in Perspective Form and wanted to check if I’m missing something in my configuration or if this is a known limitation.

I currently have a Perspective form displayed inside a popup. On this form, I’m using tooltip, but it is rendering behind the popup instead of on top of it.

From what I can tell, it seems like a z-index or stacking context issue, but I’m not sure how Perspective handles layering for popups vs. tooltips internally.

Has anyone experienced this before?

  • Is there a way to force the tooltip to render above the popup?
  • Or is there a recommended workaround

Any guidance would be appreciated. Thanks!

You can set your own custom prop for z-index on the tooltip that will override the default. It should be named zIndex (see image below).

Does this apply to pretty much any css property?

No, CSS properties should be added under the style property. Ideally, zIndex should be added there as well in order to overwrite the default. However, there is a bug in that scenario that I’ll be logging. The solution above is a workaround to this bug.
