Angular Bootstrap popovers

Add small overlay content, like those found in iOS, to any element for housing secondary information.


Examples


<button type="button" class="btn btn-default waves-light" 
        mdbPopover="And here some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?" 
        placement="right" 
        popoverTitle="Popover on right" mdbWavesEffect>
  Popover on right
</button>

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default waves-light" 
        mdbPopover="And here some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?" 
        placement="bottom" 
        popoverTitle="Popover on bottom" mdbWavesEffect>
  Popover on bottom
</button>

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default waves-light" 
        mdbPopover="And here some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?" 
        placement="left" 
        popoverTitle="Popover on left" mdbWavesEffect>
  Popover on left
</button>

<button type="button" class="btn btn-default waves-light" 
        mdbPopover="And here some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?" 
        placement="top" 
        popoverTitle="Popover on top" mdbWavesEffect>
  Popover on top
</button>
        

Dismiss on next click

Use the focus trigger to dismiss popovers on the next click that the user makes.

Dismissible popover

<button type="button" class="btn btn-danger waves-light" 
        mdbPopover="And here some amazing content. It's very engaging. Right?" 
        placement="right" 
        popoverTitle="Dismissible popover" 
        triggers="focus" mdbWavesEffect>
  Dismissible popover
</button>
