Vuetify VTooltip trigger only on activator click

Question

I wanted to trigger Vuetify tooltip VTooltip only when the activator is clicked rather than hovered. I tried to bind it with a variable but still triggered on hover.

 methods: { 

  doCopy(){
     // copy logic
     this.showCopied = true;
     setTimeout(() => {
        this.showCopied = false
      }, 1000)

  }
 }

 <VTooltip v-model="showCopied">
    <template #activator="{ on }">
      <VBtn  v-on="on" @click="doCopy"> COPY </VBtn>
    </template>
 </VTooltip>

Answer 1

This is actually more complicated than I expected thanks to some bugs. You should be able to just do <v-tooltip :open-on-hover="false">, but a focus listener is still added which causes the click to close the tooltip immediately. Instead you need to bind the click and blur events separately, and add retain-focus-on-click to the button so it doesn't blur immediately.

Full solution:

<v-tooltip bottom :open-on-hover="false">
  <template #activator="{ on }">
    <v-btn @click="on.click" @blur="on.blur" retain-focus-on-click>Copy</v-btn>
  </template>
  <span>Copy</span>
</v-tooltip>
