Any way to create tooltips without arrows?

[halileohalilei]

I need to have a couple of tooltips in my project, and one of them is a tooltip without any arrows. I can manage it by creating a custom View of my own, but I want to use the same library for my tooltips. Is there any way I can achieve this?

Also, when I was writing pure native iOS, I used to use https://github.com/teodorpatras/EasyTipView which was super easy to use and easily customizable. Any chance react-native-tooltips can switch to that on the iOS side?

Either way, thanks for the package!

Thanks @halileohalilei for raising the query.

• My initial plan was to integrate EasyTipView, but while doing so I faced multiple issues and the tooltip was not displaying. Then I came across SexyTooltip which seems to be promising.

• I have added arrow={true/false} prop through which you can add/remove the arrow. Currently it is supported only on iOS, for Android I have raised the issue to ViewTooltip: 31. Based on their response I will impl the same prop for Android as well.

• Once it is enabled on Android, I will publish the next release with the same. Meantime in case you want to use it for iOS please use master branch.

Thanks

Hi @halileohalilei,

Updates: Android: ViewTooltip has add API to set arrow height and width. Coming weekend I will integrate the same in our library and will push the release version.

Hi @halileohalilei, I have enabled arrow customisation on Android as well. Please find below screenshot of the same:

However I am not able to set padding between button and tooltip, I have requested help from ViewTooltip Team, post these fix's I will release the latest version.

@prscX you are the best! I decided to go with a simpler approach for now without any tooltips, but I will be integrating them to my app in a few weeks. I will let you know if I stumble upon any problems. Cheers!
