- duckmysick 12y agoBecause hover saves user two clicks (one to access a tooltip, another to dismiss it) and desktop users are already familiar with additional information displayed on hover. If a hover tooltip has a clickable content then yes, using on click to lock the tooltip in place is a good idea. For example, hover navigation with subcategories can be awkward to use and on click navigation is a better choice here. But for a simple caption in an interactive chart it would be an overkill on desktops.
