Solution 1:

The CSS Solution

There is a very simple solution to the problem at hand. What I essentially added is the following CSS code

word-wrap:break-word;

to the class that surrounds your tooltip text.

What if I am using Angular UI?

For styling a tooltip from angular ui, I added tooltip-class="tooltip" to the tooltip code.

Here is a working demo with angular

This is a modified plunkr obtained from the Angular UI documentation

Solution 2:

Here is complete code of custom tooltip in bootstrap

<!DOCTYPE html><htmllang="en"><head><title>Bootstrap Example</title><metacharset="utf-8"><metaname="viewport"content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1"><linkrel="stylesheet"href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/css/bootstrap.min.css"><scriptsrc="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script><scriptsrc="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.7/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script><script>
   $(document).ready(function(){
    $("[data-toggle=tooltip]").tooltip();
});


  </script><style>.tooltip.top.tooltip-inner {
    background-color:red;
  }
.tooltip.top.tooltip-arrow {
          border-top-color: red;
       }
.tooltip.right.tooltip-inner {
    background-color:blue;
  }
.tooltip.right.tooltip-arrow {
          border-right-color: blue;
       }
.tooltip.bottom.tooltip-inner {
    background-color:green;
    width:400px;
    height:50px;
    padding-top:10px;
  }
.tooltip.bottom.tooltip-arrow {
          border-bottom-color: green;
       }  
.tooltip.left.tooltip-inner {
    background-color:yellow;
  }
.tooltip.left.tooltip-arrow {
          border-left-color: yellow;
       }                    
  </style></head><body><divclass="container"><divclass="row"><divclass="col-sm-12"><h1>Colored Tooltip</h1></div><divclass="col-sm-3"><h3>Top</h3><ahref="#"data-toggle="tooltip"title="This tooltip is on top!">Hover to see my tooltip</a></div><divclass="col-sm-3"><h3>Right</h3><ahref="#"data-placement="right"data-toggle="tooltip"title="This tooltip is on the right!">Hover to see my tooltip</a></div><divclass="col-sm-3"><h3>Bottom</h3><ahref="#"data-placement="bottom"data-toggle="tooltip"title="This tooltip is on the bottom!">Hover to see my tooltip</a></div><divclass="col-sm-3"><h3>Left</h3><ahref="#"data-placement="left"data-toggle="tooltip"title="This tooltip is on the left!">Hover to see my tooltip</a></div></div></div></body></html>

Solution 3:

You can create a use some css tricks which will resize the tooltip according to content.

Here is some example with assumptions of width and height.

.tooltip{
    max-width:100px;
    padding:15px;
    min-height:30px;
    background:#000;/*change accordingly*/
}

Above css will create a div with fix maximum width and resizeable height which will fit you content.

Solution 4:

.tooltip {
    position: relative;
    display: inline-block;
    border-bottom: 1px dotted black;
}

.tooltip.tooltiptext {
   
    max-width:100px;
    padding:15px;
    min-height:30px;
    background:red;
    visibility: hidden;
    border: 1px solid black;
    color: #000;
    text-align: center;
    border-radius: 6px;
    /* Position the tooltip */position: absolute;
    z-index: 1;
}

.tooltip:hover.tooltiptext {
    visibility: visible;
}
<bodystyle="text-align:center;"><p>Move the mouse over the text below:</p><divclass="tooltip">Hover over me 1
  <spanclass="tooltiptext">Tooltip text</span></div><divclass="tooltip">Hover over me 2
  <spanclass="tooltiptext">Array [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,,1,11,1,1,1,11,1,,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]</span></div></body>
