Hi @Andrii.Randiuk, if the header is in a docked view, I’m not sure if it is possible. If not, then make sure your component’s props.style.overflow is set to visible. Make sure the overflow is also set to visible for all parent containers.

@Andrii.Randiuk, apologies I don’t understand your last sentence. If you are using the Ignition Demo project I will try and test with it when I get the time (I have not used it before so I am unsure of it’s configuration).

Unfortunately, I am unable to do this now but may be able to do this later tonight (UK time). Sorry I can’t be of further help right now 🙂

> Better solution (for me) changing the opacity property on hover via a custom style instead of component events (and thus no need for parent containers). Bonus: hover actions are visible in designer (preview mode). Examples attached. base style: opacity: 0, element state [hover]: opacity: 0.90 Wish I could add position: absolute (for positioning on top of other flex-container objects) to the custom style instead of manually to the tooltip component style, but I guess there's a reason it'…

I found that, but he pointed to label and label is showing.  
I want pointed to object and then show label(tooltip)

I only can handle this by setting flex container overflow to show. and play with visibility.  
But there is no delay to set up so when mouse over object wait and after some time display tooltip.
