Description

Tooltips inside a dialog currently wait a fixed 100 ms before becoming visible, even when the dialog is already open and stationary. The 250 ms fade starts while the tooltip is still hidden, so it appears late and partway through its animation compared with the same tooltip outside a dialog.

This change replaces the fixed timeout with a wait for active, finite animations on the actual ancestor dialog panels. Once the motion finishes, the tooltip is displayed, aligned and faded in. Tooltips in settled dialogs appear immediately, respecting the configured show delay.

This also preserves the original autofocus positioning fix: when an input receives focus during dialog entrance, its tooltip waits until the panel reaches its final position. Nested dialogs and dialogs appended to the body are supported. Animations on child elements do not delay the tooltip, and pending callbacks cannot reveal a dismissed or replaced tooltip.

Preserves the positioning fix introduced in primefaces/primeng#15486, replacing its fixed timeout with the actual dialog animation lifecycle.

Additional context

Before

After

After.Tooltip.demo.8.Sept.19.09.mp4

The before recording uses the existing implementation, which already includes the historical autofocus fix.

The ms values show the elapsed time from the hover or focus event to the first observed animation frame where the tooltip is displayed with an opacity greater than zero. They measure the delay until the tooltip starts appearing, not the duration of the full fade-in.

The videos were recorded in Chrome. In Firefox, the effect is worse, with the tooltip almost popping into view instead of fading in smoothly.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved tooltip timing while dialog surfaces are animating, including paused and nested animations.
    • Prevented tooltips from appearing in stale containers or after their associated interface elements are no longer connected.
    • Ensured tooltips reveal immediately when no dialog animation is active.
    • Improved tooltip positioning and fade-in behavior after the appropriate display timing is reached.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Tooltip reveal timing now waits for active dialog-surface animations, including paused and nested animations. The fixed p-dialog delay was removed. The reveal path validates containers and hosts before display, alignment, and fade-in.

Changes

Tooltip reveal

Layer / File(s) Summary
Animation-aware reveal and target validation
packages/optimus-ui/src/tooltip/tooltip.ts
show() waits for running or paused finite dialog-surface animations, skips stale or disconnected targets, checks active before reveal, and reveals non-animated cases immediately.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to be59c

Tooltip display now waits for finite dialog-panel animations before positioning and revealing, while settled dialogs continue to show immediately. No concrete merge-blocking risk remains.

@devfake The second commit you pushed failed to pass the lint check. Should be fine if you prefix it with fix(tooltip): and force-push.

I created an alternative pr https://github.com/openng-org/optimus-ui/pull/1804/changes that fixes the issue as well and also works with elements other than dialog
