Created page with "{{Documentation subpage}}  ===Meaning=== '''tltt''' stands for '''"template link with tooltip". "t..."

New page

{{Documentation subpage}}


===Meaning===
'''tltt''' stands for '''"template link with [[tooltip]]". "tt" also can stand for the <nowiki><tt></nowiki> tag that surrounds it. '''

===Usage===
Like {{tltt|tl|A template to refer to templates. Name stands for 'template link'.}} (see [[Template:Tl/doc|documentation]]), with an additional parameter for the tooltip. This will be displayed when user hovers over the curly braces. (Try it right here: {{tltt|Any template|Template link with tooltip}}!)

The template is meant to be used in pages such as {{tltt|TestTemplates|Our list of user warning templates}}, where it is desirable to provide a bit more explanation for a template than what its name reveals.

Differently from <nowiki>{{tl}}</nowiki>, the font is set in monospace, so that all text appears in [[non-proportional font]].

The template also permits up to two named parameters, like so:
:<tt><nowiki>{{tltt|Template name|Tooltip text|par=First parameter=1|par2=Second parameter=2}}</nowiki></tt>
Produces:
:{{tltt|Template name|Tooltip text|par=First parameter=1|par2=Second parameter=2}}

===Known problems===
* On some systems, the text only displays when user hovers over the curly braces, not over the link itself.
* It is not possible to include double quotes in the text. Use single quotes instead.

=== See also ===

* {{tl|tltt2}} - allows one sample parameter
* {{tl|tltt/tip}} - inform user that tooltips can be displayed
* {{tl|tltts}} - where subst: is required
