    First of all, thanks for your post. It’s the closest I’ve come to getting the a tooltip for the ng-fullcalendar event. The only issue I have is that the tooltip gets hidden behind the title of the calendar. Any ideas on how to solve this?

    Here is an example: https://www.screencast.com/t/8N0UQTiobDY.

    Hi,

    This article was helpful. I can get a tooltip to appear, but the setAttribute method in the eventRender callback doesn’t seem to be working, so the tooltip text is always blank. I’m using the recently released FullCalendar 4 with the ng-fullcalendar wrapper.
