Description 📝

In a recent user session, we were made aware that our tooltip are not accessible because often having the disableInteractive prop passed to them.

Makes a tooltip not interactive, i.e. it will close when the user hovers over the tooltip before the leaveDelay is expired.

As a result, users complained they were unable to copy the test within tooltips to translate it (google translate or else).

While not having translations in Cloud Manager, this is an accessibility issue we can easily fix by removing this setting and making sure all tooltips are interactive. It does not seem to have any huge drawback to keep interactivity enabled by default for all tooltips (as far as we were able to tell) and the resulting behavior appears to outweigh any potential behavioral change in the way users interact with tooltips.

Changes 🔄

  • Remove disableInteractive from tooltip and parent components
  • Prevent being able to se disableInteractive via types

Verification steps

  • Check the general behavior of tooltips through the app
  • Confirm the change isn't disruptive

Thanks for such a quick turnaround on that user feedback!

Spot checked some of our tooltips to confirm they're interactive, users will be able to copy and paste tooltip text content, and this isn't creating any issues navigating CM.
