Tooltips

AndroidKitFloatingTooltip renders text and optional typed action data inside Material’s TooltipBox. The host owns the anchor, placement and visibility; Kit seals the tooltip’s shape, typography, controls and layout. There are no custom content slots or per-component style overrides.

The component uses the same FloatingSurface as other floating controls: shared theme colors, border, shadow and floatingSurfaceOpacityLevel apply. Only the background is translucent; text and controls stay opaque. Material’s TooltipBox owns positioning and dismissal, while a Kit-owned content layout avoids Material rich-tooltip baseline/action padding. Text-only and actionable tooltips use spaceMedium at the top and sides, with spaceSmall between the message and actions. Text-only tooltips also use spaceMedium at the bottom; actionable tooltips use spaceExtraSmall there because Material buttons already include internal vertical spacing and full touch targets. There is one background and shadow. No caret is drawn.

val state = rememberTooltipState(isPersistent = true)
TooltipBox(
    state = state,
    focusable = true,
    positionProvider = TooltipDefaults.rememberTooltipPositionProvider(TooltipAnchorPosition.Above),
    tooltip = {
        AndroidKitFloatingTooltip(
            text = message,
            action = AndroidKitFloatingTooltipAction(
                label = actionLabel,
                onClick = { performAction(); state.dismiss() },
            ),
            onDismiss = { state.dismiss() },
        )
    },
) { /* host-owned anchor */ }

Import net.mamby.androidkit.compose.action.AndroidKitFloatingTooltip and AndroidKitFloatingTooltipAction. The former is a TooltipScope extension. Material tooltip APIs currently require ExperimentalMaterial3Api opt-in at the host’s TooltipBox call. Omit action and onDismiss for text-only feedback. Action callbacks own dismissal; a disabled action is rendered but cannot run. The Close label is localized internally. Timed feedback should respect the system accessibility timeout; search errors already do this.

Demo: Components → FloatingTooltip, with text-only and actionable examples. Search errors and floating action button tooltips use this component. Android’s system clipboard confirmation remains unchanged; no duplicate copy notification has been added.
