Hi @rizzotto, thank you for reporting a bug!

Internal note:
The tooltip's position is not being corrected by tooltip.distance in the tooltip.updatePosition() method when tooltip.outside is true.

Workaround: correct the position with this pos.x -= this.distance / 2;: https://jsfiddle.net/BlackLabel/yfxp9hkL/
The issue is visible only with tooltip.positioner

Hey @raf18seb thanks for answering, also the Y is misaligned.

Do you have an ETA for this one?

Thanks!
