Import

Usage

import { Popover, Text, Button } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
return (
<Popover width={200} position="bottom" withArrow shadow="md">
<Popover.Target>
<Button>Toggle popover</Button>
</Popover.Target>
<Popover.Dropdown>
<Text size="sm">This is uncontrolled popover, it is opened when button is clicked</Text>
</Popover.Dropdown>
</Popover>
);
}

Controlled

You can control Popover state with opened and onChange props:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { Popover, Button } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
const [opened, setOpened] = useState(false);
return (
<Popover opened={opened} onChange={setOpened}>
<Popover.Target>
<Button onClick={() => setOpened((o) => !o)}>Toggle popover</Button>
</Popover.Target>
<Popover.Dropdown>Dropdown</Popover.Dropdown>
</Popover>
);
}

Controlled example with mouse events:

import { useDisclosure } from '@mantine/hooks';
import { Popover, Text, Button } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
const [opened, { close, open }] = useDisclosure(false);
return (
<Popover width={200} position="bottom" withArrow shadow="md" opened={opened}>
<Popover.Target>
<Button onMouseEnter={open} onMouseLeave={close}>
Hover to see popover
</Button>
</Popover.Target>
<Popover.Dropdown sx={{ pointerEvents: 'none' }}>
<Text size="sm">This popover is shown when user hovers the target element</Text>
</Popover.Dropdown>
</Popover>
);
}

Controlled example with focus events:

import { useState } from 'react';
import { IconX, IconCheck } from '@tabler/icons';
import { PasswordInput, Progress, Text, Popover, Box } from '@mantine/core';
function PasswordRequirement({ meets, label }: { meets: boolean; label: string }) {
return (
<Text
color={meets ? 'teal' : 'red'}
sx={{ display: 'flex', alignItems: 'center' }}
mt={7}
size="sm"
>
{meets ? <IconCheck size={14} /> : <IconX size={14} />} <Box ml={10}>{label}</Box>
</Text>
);
}
const requirements = [
{ re: /[0-9]/, label: 'Includes number' },
{ re: /[a-z]/, label: 'Includes lowercase letter' },
{ re: /[A-Z]/, label: 'Includes uppercase letter' },
{ re: /[$&+,:;=?@#|'<>.^*()%!-]/, label: 'Includes special symbol' },
];
function getStrength(password: string) {
let multiplier = password.length > 5 ? 0 : 1;
requirements.forEach((requirement) => {
if (!requirement.re.test(password)) {
multiplier += 1;
}
});
return Math.max(100 - (100 / (requirements.length + 1)) * multiplier, 10);
}
function Demo() {
const [popoverOpened, setPopoverOpened] = useState(false);
const [value, setValue] = useState('');
const checks = requirements.map((requirement, index) => (
<PasswordRequirement key={index} label={requirement.label} meets={requirement.re.test(value)} />
));
const strength = getStrength(value);
const color = strength === 100 ? 'teal' : strength > 50 ? 'yellow' : 'red';
return (
<div style={{ maxWidth: 340, margin: 'auto' }}>
<Popover opened={popoverOpened} position="bottom" width="target" transition="pop">
<Popover.Target>
<div
onFocusCapture={() => setPopoverOpened(true)}
onBlurCapture={() => setPopoverOpened(false)}
>
<PasswordInput
withAsterisk
label="Your password"
placeholder="Your password"
value={value}
onChange={(event) => setValue(event.currentTarget.value)}
/>
</div>
</Popover.Target>
<Popover.Dropdown>
<Progress color={color} value={strength} size={5} style={{ marginBottom: 10 }} />
<PasswordRequirement label="Includes at least 6 characters" meets={value.length > 5} />
{checks}
</Popover.Dropdown>
</Popover>
</div>
);
}

Focus trap

If you need to use any interactive elements within Popover, set trapFocus prop:

import { Popover, Button, TextInput } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
return (
<Popover width={300} trapFocus position="bottom" withArrow shadow="md">
<Popover.Target>
<Button>Toggle popover</Button>
</Popover.Target>
<Popover.Dropdown sx={(theme) => ({ background: theme.colorScheme === 'dark' ? theme.colors.dark[7] : theme.white })}>
<TextInput label="Name" placeholder="Name" size="xs" />
<TextInput label="Email" placeholder="john@doe.com" size="xs" mt="xs" />
</Popover.Dropdown>
</Popover>
);
}

Inline elements

Enable inline middleware to use Popover with inline elements:

Stantler’s magnificent antlers were traded at high prices as works of art. As a result, this Pokémon was hunted close to extinction by those who were after the priceless antlers. , you may catch sight of it having an intense fight with Murkrow over shiny objects.Ho-Oh’s feathers glow in seven colors depending on the angle at which they are struck by light. These feathers are said to bring happiness to the bearers. This Pokémon is said to live at the foot of a rainbow.
import { Popover, Mark, Text } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
return (
<Text>
Stantler’s magnificent antlers were traded at high prices as works of art. As a result, this
Pokémon was hunted close to extinction by those who were after the priceless antlers.{' '}
<Popover middlewares={{ flip: true, shift: true, inline: true }} position="top">
<Popover.Target>
<Mark>When visiting a junkyard</Mark>
</Popover.Target>
<Popover.Dropdown>Inline dropdown</Popover.Dropdown>
</Popover>
, you may catch sight of it having an intense fight with Murkrow over shiny objects.Ho-Oh’s
feathers glow in seven colors depending on the angle at which they are struck by light. These
feathers are said to bring happiness to the bearers. This Pokémon is said to live at the foot
of a rainbow.
</Text>
);
}

Same width

Set width="target" prop to make Popover dropdown take the same width as target element:

import { Popover, Text, Button } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
return (
<Popover width="target" position="bottom" withArrow shadow="md">
<Popover.Target>
<Button sx={{ width: 280 }}>Toggle popover</Button>
</Popover.Target>
<Popover.Dropdown>
<Text size="sm">
This popover has same width as target, it is useful when you are building input dropdowns
</Text>
</Popover.Dropdown>
</Popover>
);
}

Initial focus

Popover uses FocusTrap component to manage focus. Add data-autofocus attribute to element that should receive initial focus:

<Popover>
<input />
<input data-autofocus />
<input />
</Popover>

Popover.Target children

Popover.Target requires an element or a component as a single child – strings, fragments, numbers and multiple elements/components are not supported and will throw error. Custom components must provide a prop to get root element ref, all Mantine components support ref out of the box.

import { Popover, Button } from '@mantine/core';
function Demo() {
return (
<>
<Popover.Target>
<button>Native button – ok</button>
</Popover.Target>
{/* OK */}
<Popover.Target>
<Button>Mantine component – ok</Button>
</Popover.Target>
{/* String, NOT OK – will throw error */}
<Popover.Target>Raw string</Popover.Target>
{/* Number, NOT OK – will throw error */}
<Popover.Target>{2}</Popover.Target>
{/* Fragment, NOT OK – will throw error */}
<Popover.Target>
<>Fragment, NOT OK, will throw error</>
</Popover.Target>
{/* Multiple nodes, NOT OK – will throw error */}
<Popover.Target>
<div>More that one node</div>
<div>NOT OK, will throw error</div>
</Popover.Target>
</>
);
}

Required ref prop

Custom components that are rendered inside Popover.Target are required to support ref prop:

// Example of code that WILL NOT WORK
import { Popover } from '@mantine/core';
function MyComponent() {
return <div>My component</div>;
}
// This will not work – MyComponent does not support ref
function Demo() {
return (
<Popover>
<Popover.Target>
<MyComponent />
</Popover.Target>
</Popover>
);
}

Use forwardRef function to forward ref to root element:

// Example of code that will work
import { forwardRef } from 'react';
import { Popover } from '@mantine/core';
const MyComponent = forwardRef((props, ref) => (
<div ref={ref} {...props}>
My component
</div>
));
// Works correctly – ref is forwarded
function Demo() {
return (
<Popover>
<Popover.Target>
<MyComponent />
</Popover.Target>
</Popover>
);
}

Accessibility

Popover follows WAI-ARIA recommendations:

  • Dropdown element has role="dialog" and aria-labelledby="target-id" attributes
  • Target element has aria-haspopup="dialog", aria-expanded, aria-controls="dropdown-id" attributes

Supported target elements

Uncontrolled Popover will be accessible only when used with button element or component that renders it (Button, ActionIcon, etc.). Other elements will not support Space and Enter key presses.
