Tooltip on disabled button with wrapper

For AI Agents

Hand your agent this brief or the ReUI MCP, not a screenshot. Free to install.

Best for: A disabled Delete Project button wrapped in a span trigger, so the reason it is locked still shows on hover

When to use

Short labels for buttons and icon only toolbar actions, with a keyboard shortcut where one exists
Help text on an info icon, a warning, a verified mark, a locked feature or a disabled button
Compact summaries behind a trigger, such as service status, notifications, file details or a person

When not to use

Content with links or buttons that keyboard users must be able to reach: use the Popover component
A rich profile or page preview with a large photo, bio and dates: use the Hover Card component
A status or count that stays readable without pointing at anything: use the Badge component

Agent notes

The span trigger is not focusable and the disabled Button skips Tab, so keyboard users never see the reason; give the span tabIndex 0
Outside a TooltipProvider the base Tooltip opens after 600ms and inside one at once; the radix Tooltip throws without one
TooltipTrigger renders a button of its own, so a Button nested in it without render or radix asChild makes a button in a button
TooltipContent is portaled to the end of the body with no focus guards, so a link or button in it is not next in Tab order after its trigger
