Nuxt UI table, tooltip on row.

How would one create a tooltip on a complete row. Couldn't figure it out with the templating...

Hi @Kyllian. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- To create a tooltip on a complete row in a Nuxt UI table, you can combine the UTable and UTooltip components. However, the knowledge sources provided don't contain a specific example for this exact use case. I'll provide a solution based on the available information and Nuxt UI component usage patterns. Here's an approach you could try: 1. Use the #default-row slot of the UTable component to customize the row rendering. 2. Wrap the entire row content with a UTooltip component. Here's an example of how you might implement this:

<template>
  <UTable :rows="people">
    <template #default-row="{ row }">
      <UTooltip :text="getTooltipText(row)">
        <tr>
          <td v-for="(value, key) in row" :key="key">
            {{ value }}
          </td>
        </tr>
      </UTooltip>
    </template>
  </UTable>
</template>

<script setup>
const people = [
  // Your table data here
]

function getTooltipText(row) {
  // Customize this function to return the desired tooltip text for each row
  return `${row.name} - ${row.title}`
}
</script>

<template>
  <UTable :rows="people">
    <template #default-row="{ row }">
      <UTooltip :text="getTooltipText(row)">
        <tr>
          <td v-for="(value, key) in row" :key="key">
            {{ value }}
          </td>
        </tr>
      </UTooltip>
    </template>
  </UTable>
</template>

<script setup>
const people = [
  // Your table data here
]

function getTooltipText(row) {
  // Customize this function to return the desired tooltip text for each row
  return `${row.name} - ${row.title}`
}
</script>

This approach wraps each row in a UTooltip component, which should display the tooltip when hovering over any part of the row. Keep in mind that this is a custom solution and might require some tweaking to work perfectly with the UTable component. The exact behavior and styling might need adjustments to fit seamlessly with the table layout. For more detailed information on the UTable and UTooltip components, you can refer to: - Table Component - Tooltip Component If you encounter any specific issues or need further customization, you might want to consult the Nuxt UI documentation or community forums for more targeted assistance. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai the default-row doesnt seem to be doing anything

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I apologize for the confusion in my previous answer. You're right that the #default-row slot doesn't seem to be a valid slot for the UTable component based on the provided knowledge sources. I made a mistake in suggesting that approach. Let's look at the correct way to customize rows in a Nuxt UI table. According to the Table Component documentation, you can use the #<column>-data slot to customize the content of each cell in a specific column. We can use this to wrap each cell with a UTooltip component. Here's a corrected approach:

<template>
  <UTable :rows="people" :columns="columns">
    <template v-for="column in columns" :key="column.key" #[`${column.key}-data`]="{ row }">
      <UTooltip :text="getTooltipText(row)">
        {{ row[column.key] }}
      </UTooltip>
    </template>
  </UTable>
</template>

<script setup>
const columns = [
  { key: 'name', label: 'Name' },
  { key: 'title', label: 'Title' },
  { key: 'email', label: 'Email' },
  { key: 'role', label: 'Role' }
]

const people = [
  // Your table data here
]

function getTooltipText(row) {
  return `${row.name} - ${row.title}`
}
</script>

<template>
  <UTable :rows="people" :columns="columns">
    <template v-for="column in columns" :key="column.key" #[`${column.key}-data`]="{ row }">
      <UTooltip :text="getTooltipText(row)">
        {{ row[column.key] }}
      </UTooltip>
    </template>
  </UTable>
</template>

<script setup>
const columns = [
  { key: 'name', label: 'Name' },
  { key: 'title', label: 'Title' },
  { key: 'email', label: 'Email' },
  { key: 'role', label: 'Role' }
]

const people = [
  // Your table data here
]

function getTooltipText(row) {
  return `${row.name} - ${row.title}`
}
</script>

In this approach, we're using a v-for directive to iterate over the columns and create a custom slot for each column. Each cell is wrapped in a UTooltip component, which will display the tooltip when hovering over the cell. This method should work better with the UTable component's structure. However, keep in mind that this will create a separate tooltip for each cell, not for the entire row as originally requested. If you specifically need a tooltip for the entire row, you might need to consider a more custom approach, possibly involving some CSS to make the tooltip span the entire row. Unfortunately, the provided knowledge sources don't contain information on how to achieve this exact behavior with the UTable component. For more details on customizing the UTable component, you can refer to the Table Component documentation. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

this does something, but only for the text within the row. i want the complete row to be a tooltip @kapa.ai this does something, but only for the text within the row. i want the complete row to be a tooltip

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- I understand you want the complete row to act as a tooltip, not just the individual cells. Unfortunately, the Nuxt UI Table component doesn't have a built-in way to achieve this exact behavior based on the provided knowledge sources. However, we can try a custom approach using CSS and the existing Nuxt UI components. Here's a potential solution: 1. We'll use the #name-data slot (assuming 'name' is the first column) to wrap the entire row content. 2. We'll use CSS to make this cell span the entire row. 3. We'll apply the tooltip to this spanning cell. Here's how you might implement this:

<template>
  <UTable :rows="people" :columns="columns">
    <template #name-data="{ row }">
      <UTooltip :text="getTooltipText(row)">
        <div class="full-row-tooltip">
          <span v-for="column in columns" :key="column.key" class="tooltip-cell">
            {{ row[column.key] }}
          </span>
        </div>
      </UTooltip>
    </template>
  </UTable>
</template>

<script setup>
const columns = [
  { key: 'name', label: 'Name' },
  { key: 'title', label: 'Title' },
  { key: 'email', label: 'Email' },
  { key: 'role', label: 'Role' }
]

const people = [
  // Your table data here
]

function getTooltipText(row) {
  return `${row.name} - ${row.title}`
}
</script>

<style scoped>
.full-row-tooltip {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr); /* Adjust based on your column count */
  width: 100%;
}

.tooltip-cell {
  padding: 0.5rem; /* Adjust as needed */
}

/* Override Nuxt UI styles to allow our custom layout */
:deep(td) {
  padding: 0 !important;
}
:deep(td:not(:first-child)) {
  display: none;
}
:deep(td:first-child) {
  width: 100%;
}
</style>

<template>
  <UTable :rows="people" :columns="columns">
    <template #name-data="{ row }">
      <UTooltip :text="getTooltipText(row)">
        <div class="full-row-tooltip">
          <span v-for="column in columns" :key="column.key" class="tooltip-cell">
            {{ row[column.key] }}
          </span>
        </div>
      </UTooltip>
    </template>
  </UTable>
</template>

<script setup>
const columns = [
  { key: 'name', label: 'Name' },
  { key: 'title', label: 'Title' },
  { key: 'email', label: 'Email' },
  { key: 'role', label: 'Role' }
]

const people = [
  // Your table data here
]

function getTooltipText(row) {
  return `${row.name} - ${row.title}`
}
</script>

<style scoped>
.full-row-tooltip {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(4, 1fr); /* Adjust based on your column count */
  width: 100%;
}

.tooltip-cell {
  padding: 0.5rem; /* Adjust as needed */
}

/* Override Nuxt UI styles to allow our custom layout */
:deep(td) {
  padding: 0 !important;
}
:deep(td:not(:first-child)) {
  display: none;
}
:deep(td:first-child) {
  width: 100%;
}
</style>

This approach does the following: 1. We use the #name-data slot to customize the content of the first column. 2. Inside this slot, we wrap everything in a UTooltip component. 3. We create a grid layout inside the tooltip to mimic the table row structure. 4. We use CSS to make the first cell span the entire row and hide the other cells. Please note that this is a custom solution and might require further adjustments depending on your specific table structure and styling needs. It also overrides some of the default Nuxt UI Table styles, which might have unintended consequences in some cases. For more information on the UTooltip component and its properties, you can refer to the Tooltip Component documentation. If this solution doesn't meet your needs or causes issues with your table layout, you might need to consider a more custom table implementation or seek assistance from the Nuxt UI community for a more tailored solution. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
