Instantly add professional, responsive, and fully interactive tooltips to your Unity UI. Whether you are building an RPG inventory, a complex strategy game interface, or simple menu hints, Easy Tooltip handles the hard work for you.

Designed for both Artists (via an intuitive custom Inspector) and Programmers (via a robust 1-line C# API), the system requires absolutely zero scene setup.



🌟 KEY FEATURES


Zero Setup Required: Just add the script to a UI element. The global manager is auto-generated instantly.


Smart Screen Clamping & Flipping: Tooltips never clip off-screen. They automatically detect screen edges and flip to the opposite side or clamp to stay visible.


Fixed & Relative Positioning: Choose standard "Follow Mouse" or pin tooltips to 12 specific anchor points (e.g., Top-Center, Bottom-Right) relative to your target.


Continuous Cursor Tracking: Need the tooltip to follow the mouse dynamically? Enable continuous tracking with custom X/Y pixel offsets so the cursor never blocks your text.


Custom Editor Workflow: A clean, foldout-based custom Inspector makes configuring timing, overrides, and events a breeze for designers.


Visual Style Overrides: Customize backgrounds, outlines, and colors per-tooltip, or rely on your global defaults.


Event Hooks (UnityEvents): Trigger custom game logic easily with OnShow and OnHide events directly in the Inspector.


Multi-Canvas & World Space: Works seamlessly across Screen Space (Overlay/Camera) and World Space UIs. Perfect for VR or 3D diegetic UI.


Input System Ready: Native, error-free support for both the Legacy Input Manager and the New Input System.
