Topic on Talk:Reference Tooltips

I'm using this mainly in qupzilla 1.8.9 (a linux browser) where I have to click on the link to enable seeing the reference. When I try to change it to 'hover' I'm not able to change it as it seems to be locked onto 'click'.

However, when i look at the same page and reference in firefox, its showing as 'hover'!

Is it possible that this can be set globally in some form of configuration script or css such that you can set it to hover for every user please?

Unfortunately, there is no way for the script to determine whether the user has a mouse, so it defaults to "click" if the user has a touchscreen (as determined by presence of ontouchstart) even if the user also has a mouse. If the user only had a touchscreen, setting it to "hover" would make both the tooltips themselves and the settings menu inaccessible, so that's not given as an option when a touchscreen is detected.
