Creating flyer tips

Question

I want to add tooltips on the elevator map (without markers) and make them clickable. The following code adds a tooltip, but is not clickable:

var tooltip = L.tooltip({
        direction: 'center',
        permanent: true,
        interactive: true,
        noWrap: true,
        opacity: 0.9
    });
tooltip.setContent( "Example" );
tooltip.setLatLng(new L.LatLng(someLat, someLon));
tooltip.addTo(myLayer);
tooltip.on('click', function(event) {
    console.log("Click!");
});

How can I make it work?

Answer 1

To receive clicks on an object L.Tooltip, you need to:

• configure the listener on the associated DOM object:

  var el = tooltip.getElement();
  el.addEventListener('click', function() {
      console.log("click");
  });
  

• remove the pointer-events: noneproperty set for this element:

  var el = tooltip.getElement();
  el.style.pointerEvents = 'auto';
  

Demo so far

var map = L.map(document.getElementById('map')).setView([48.8583736, 2.2922926], 4);
L.tileLayer('http://{s}.tile.osm.org/{z}/{x}/{y}.png', {
        attribution: '&copy; <a href="http://osm.org/copyright">OpenStreetMap</a> contributors'
}).addTo(map);

var tooltip = L.tooltip({
    direction: 'center',
    permanent: true,
    interactive: true,
    noWrap: true,
    opacity: 0.9
});
tooltip.setContent( "Example" );
tooltip.setLatLng(new L.LatLng(48.8583736, 2.2922926));
tooltip.addTo(map);

var el = tooltip.getElement();
el.addEventListener('click', function() {
    console.log("click");
});
el.style.pointerEvents = 'auto';

html, body {
  height: 100%;
  margin: 0;
}
#map {
  width: 100%;
  height: 180px;
}
