Disabled elements

Elements with the disabled attribute aren’t interactive, meaning users cannot hover or click them to trigger a popover (or tooltip). As a workaround, you’ll want to trigger the overlay from a wrapper <div> or <span> and override the pointer-events on the disabled element.

Hide arrow indicator

You can hide arrow indicator by setting arrow props to false;

Follow cursor

You can enable the Tooltip to follow the cursor by setting followCursor={true}.
