Jquery UI tooltip. Set timeout and set hover events. Freeze tooltip on mouseover

Question

I\'ve googled about 2 days and can\'t figure out how to set timeout for http://api.jqueryui.com/tooltip/ ???

Maybe i should use jquery hoverIntent ?

here is

Answer 1

A variant on the response from @naveen. This has a duration, but with jQuery UI easing doesn't show at all until past half the duration (400ms in this case of 800ms). If the user doesn't keep the mouse hovered, this functions like hover intent since the tooltip would never be available. Simple, elegant way to fix the problem.

$( ".selector" ).tooltip({ show: { easing: "easeInExpo", duration: 800 } });
