What specific section or headline is this issue about?

Description and example

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

The SC requires the tooltip to stay open, if the mouse is moved over it (hovered).

This is not mentioned in the the description’s text, and the example does not take this into account.

What did you expect to see?

Some addition that the tooltip must stay open if hovered, and either a warning along with the example, or a solution for this.

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?
