Use a plot as tooltip

tippy_plot(
  selector,
  plotId,
  ...,
  .width = 200,
  .height = 200,
  .hidePlot = FALSE,
  .session = shiny::getDefaultReactiveDomain()
)

Arguments

selector	A CSS selector, e.g.: `#id` or `.class`. If it is a bare selector (e.g.: `sth`) then it is assumed to be an id and processed as `#sth`. Set `.is_tag` to `TRUE` to disable that.
plotId	Id of plot to use.
...	Any other options from the official documentation.
.width, .height	Dimensions of plot.
.hidePlot	Whether to hide the original plot.
.session	A valid shiny session.

Examples

library(shiny)

ui <- fluidPage(
  useTippy(),
  plotOutput("plot"),
  h5("plot tooltip", id = "plotTip")
)

server <- function(input, output) {
  output$plot <- renderPlot({
    on.exit({
      tippy_plot(
        "plotTip", 
        "plot", 
        theme = "light",
        .hidePlot = TRUE,
         .width = 600,
         .height = 200,
        maxWidth = 700
      )
    })
    plot(cars)
  })
}

if(interactive())
  shinyApp(ui, server)
