A minor tooltip for short descriptions. As opposed to the "title" attribute, it has the following advantages:

  • It's instant upon hover (has no delay)
  • It uses a skin customized for Olden Era
  • Wraps the text if too long
  • Can be placed top/left/right/bottom. Defaults to "top".

Usage

1. Basic:

Input: {{Sandbox/Aurelain/Hint | Hello | World}}

Output: Hello World


2. With images. In such cases, the subtle underline is automatically removed.

Input: {{Sandbox/Aurelain/Hint | [[File:Icon_Resource_Wood.png]] | Wood}}

Output: Wood


3. With a lot of text

Input: {{Sandbox/Aurelain/Hint | Lorem | Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.}}

Output: Lorem Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.


4. Placed at the bottom:

Input: {{Sandbox/Aurelain/Hint | Hello | World | side=bottom}}

Output: Hello World


5. Placed to the left:

Input: {{Sandbox/Aurelain/Hint | Hello | World | side=left}}

Output: Hello World


6. Placed to the right:
