Article summary

Each tooltip must be appropriately placed so that it doesn't obstruct the end user's view of important information on your page. While it is positioned automatically by Whatfix in most cases, alter it using the position selector, if needed.

You can change the position of the tooltip in two instances:


During Flow Creation

  1. Log in to the application where you want to create content, and then launch the Whatfix Studio.
  2. Click Flow.
    Studio_Click_Flow
  3. Enter the name of the Flow as you want it displayed to the users.
    Studio_Enter_Flow_Name
  4. Click + Add Step.
    Studio_Click_Add_Step
  5. Click the desired element on the page that the user needs to select.

Note:

  • With the new Flow enhancement feature, you have the option to select two types of Flow steps, and not just element latching Flows. A dialog box appears on the application to highlight the two types of Flows. Under Choose step type, select a Flow step based on your requirements: either Attached to element or Free-floating.

Studio switcher enables you to switch between 2 flow types: element-attached flow types and free-floating flow types

Attached to element Free-floating
When you select this type of Flow step, it remains attached to an element on your application. When you select this type of Flow step, it remains flexibly positioned devoid of any element attachment

  1. Review or edit the auto generated action text on the step.
    SF_Click_Leads
Info:

Enter any additional information that you want to provide in the description section of the tooltip.

  1. Under Configurations, expand Position and select the desired position of the tooltip.
