Bootstrap 4 tooltip stuck using Datatables.net

Question

Scenario: Load the datatables grid using server side processing. Set the tooltip on the title column. When the mouse hovers the tooltip is shown.

Issue: I got the tooltip working. but found one issue that I couldn't solve.

1. Hover on one of the title, which shows the tooltip

2. While keeping the mouse hovered on the title, change the show 10 records to 25 records using keyboard.

3. After the records are loaded, the tooltip is stuck on the screen.

Here is my code snippet

var table = $('#list-of-product').DataTable({
            "processing": true,
            "serverSide": true,
            "info": true,
            "stateSave": false,
            "bFilter": false,
            "drawCallback": function (settings, json) {
                $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip('update');
                //$("#list-of-product tbody tr > td").tooltip('hide');
            },
            "ajax": {
                "url": "@Url.Action("GetProducts", "LandingPage")",
                "type": "POST"
            },
            "language": {
                "paginate": {
                    "previous": "<<",
                    "next": ">>"
                },
                "info": "Showing _START_ to _END_ of _TOTAL_",
                "lengthMenu": "Show _MENU_",
                "search": "",
                "searchPlaceholder": "Search..."
            },
            "columns": [
                            { "data": "LineOfBusiness", "orderable": true },
                            { "data": "Discipline", "orderable": true },
                            { "data": "InventoryProgram", "orderable": true },
                            { "data": "ISBN13", "orderable": true },
                            { "data": "Title", "orderable": true },
                            { "data": "ProductID", "orderable": true },
                            {
                                data: null,
                                className: "text-center",
                                defaultContent: '<a href="#list-of-product" data-toggle="modal" data-target="#ContactAssigner"><i class="material-icons">assignment_ind</i></a>',
                                "orderable": false
                            }
            ],
            "order": [[0, "asc"]],
            createdRow: function (row, data, dataIndex) {
                $(row).find('td:eq(4)').attr('title', data["Title"]);
                $(row).find('td:eq(4)').attr('data-toggle', "tooltip");
                //$(row).find('td:eq(4)').tooltip();
            }
        });

Any advise would be helpful. Thanks.

For Bootstarp Popovers use

            dom: "<'row'<'col-sm-4'l><'col-sm-4 text-center'B><'col-sm-4'f>>tp",
            "lengthMenu": [[50, -1], [50, "All"]],
            order: [[1, 'desc']],
            fnDrawCallback: function () {
                $('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover();
                $('[data-toggle="popover"]').popover('hide');
            },
            "language": {
                "emptyTable": "No Records Founds"
            },
            "ordering": false,
            buttons: [
                { extend: 'csv', title: 'Support Portal', className: 'btn-sm' },
                { extend: 'pdf', title: 'Support Portal', className: 'btn-sm' },
                { extend: 'print', className: 'btn-sm' }
            ]
        });```

Answer 2

You need to hook into this page size change event, and then hide any open tooltips.

$('#list-of-product').on('length.dt', function (e, settings, len) {
    $('[data-toggle="tooltip"]').tooltip('hide');
});

Demo on Codeply

The drawCallback event won't work very well because it's called on init and any time the table is updated, when it may not be necessary to hide all the tooltips.
