Here is what I have so far:
Tooltip Testings
you can try this:
$(function() {
$(document).tooltip({
items: '.tooltip',
hide: 500,
position: { my: 'center bottom', at: 'center top' },
content: 'Testing jquery tooltips!',
show: {
effect: "slideDown",
delay: 250
}
});
});
the show
property accepts object parameter with the following properties;
effect, delay, duration, and easing
.

I finally managed to achieve what I was looking for.
Here is the final result:
