FAQ

What is in the card?

One text-sm paragraph: the plan includes 100GB of storage, upgrade for more. No title, since the label beside the icon already says what it is about.

How is the help icon made the trigger?

HoverCardTrigger takes the help icon through render, a button with its classes.

How is the icon button named?

The CircleHelpIcon is hidden from assistive tech, so the button carries aria-label="About the storage limit".

How wide is the card?

The default hover card width. Set a width class such as w-80 on the card to fit longer content.

How do I change how fast the card opens and closes?

The card opens a moment after the pointer rests on the trigger and stays up long enough for the pointer to move into it. Both delays are in milliseconds. The demo sets delay 10 and closeDelay 100 on HoverCardTrigger. side and align on HoverCardContent place it.

Does the card open from the keyboard and on touch screens?

Focusing the icon button opens the card, moving focus away or pressing Escape closes it. The icon button carries an aria-label, so it is announced by name. Touch screens have no hover, so keep what matters reachable elsewhere, or use a Popover when the card has to open on a tap.
