Anchor Elements

Updated on Jul 22, 2026

The Tooltip can target specific elements within a container, so you can control exactly which elements display a tooltip on hover.

The filter property controls which elements inside the kendoTooltip container display a tooltip. Set it to any valid CSS selector. By default, filter is set to [title], which matches all elements that have a title attribute.

For example, filter=".role-badge" targets only elements with a role-badge class. To match multiple element types, separate the selectors with a comma—for example, filter="a[href],button[title]".

The default tooltip template displays the title attribute value of the matched element. To customize the tooltip content, use content templates.

The following example shows a team roster where only the role badges trigger a tooltip.
