About the resource

To create this expanding tooltip animation, set up a trigger element and apply a relative overlay to its right centre. Inside the overlay, place a component that holds the tooltip. The tooltip has two variants: default and expanded. In the default state, the text is absolutely positioned with left and bottom pins activated and opacity set to 0. In the expanded variant, the text switches to relative positioning and opacity 1.

The key is using an “appear” interaction with a 0.6-second delay to transition from the default to the expanded state, creating a smooth reveal effect.
