# Does a Smart Tip disappear when I scroll away from the selected element?

When you enable [**Auto Hover**](/studio/docs/auto-tip-execution) for your Smart Tip, it behaves dynamically based on end-user interaction.

- **Scroll away:** If the end user scrolls away from the element to which the Smart Tip is attached, it automatically disappears from view. The behavior is to prevent clutter and ensure a smooth user experience.
- **Scroll back:** However, if the end user scrolls back to the element, the Smart Tip reappears automatically. This ensures that helpful information is readily available whenever the user needs it.
- **Permanent dismissal:** Once the end user dismisses the Smart Tip using the [‘X’ icon](/studio/docs/smart-tips-customization), it remains hidden even if the user scrolls back to the element. The behavior indicates that the user has consciously decided not to see the Smart Tip again.

> [!WARNING]
> Note:
> 
> The scrolling back behaviour works only when the following two conditions are valid:
> 
> - Smart Tip is set to auto Hover.
> - Smart Tip has an ‘**X**’ icon to enable end users to dismiss it.
