Change orientation of tooltips

[phenomlab]

Is there a simple way to change the orientation of tooltips ?

For example, this "should" work in the HTML data-placement="bottom" but it doesn't seem to have any effect if you edit the DOM directly.

I suppose a better way would be to use auto placement as defined here
https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.1/components/tooltips/

I'm developing a swatch that uses the Persona theme (see https://sudonix.com/topic/284/theming-support-in-sudonix/16?_=1656092092008) and because I've changed the CSS of various elements, the tooltips for the top set of buttons now appear under the navbar which of course isn't optimum.

I could use jQuery as a workaround, but this would be expensive in terms of performance.

Thanks

Anyone ?

The placement value is hardcoded in multiple places in core. If you search for placement: you should see multiple places where it's hardcoded to bottom. These need to updated so they read the value from a config or DOM.

@baris Thanks. I might just go for CSS positioning as it's less invasive
