CSS variables

Vue toltips use local CSS variables on .tooltip for enhanced real-time customization. Values for the CSS variables are set via Sass, so Sass customization is still supported, too.

scss

--cui-tooltip-zindex: #{$zindex-tooltip};
--cui-tooltip-max-width: #{$tooltip-max-width};
--cui-tooltip-padding-x: #{$tooltip-padding-x};
--cui-tooltip-padding-y: #{$tooltip-padding-y};
--cui-tooltip-margin: #{$tooltip-margin};
@include rfs($tooltip-font-size, --cui-tooltip-font-size);
--cui-tooltip-color: #{$tooltip-color};
--cui-tooltip-bg: #{$tooltip-bg};
--cui-tooltip-border-radius: #{$tooltip-border-radius};
--cui-tooltip-opacity: #{$tooltip-opacity};
--cui-tooltip-arrow-width: #{$tooltip-arrow-width};
--cui-tooltip-arrow-height: #{$tooltip-arrow-height};

How to use CSS variables

const vars = { 
  '--my-css-var': 10,
  '--my-another-css-var': "red" 
}
return <CTooltip :style="vars">...</CTooltip>
