Currently, the tooltip behavior is not customizable. It is displayed (1) when the validation is triggered (based on the validationTrigger option, which is by default change and can be set to blur), (2) when the cell is active/focused, and (3) when hovering over the error indicator (the default tooltip behavior).
Our main use case is that we want to keep the existing validation behavior and invalid state handling, but we do not want the validation tooltip to be displayed automatically whenever a cell becomes invalid. Instead, we would like the tooltip to be shown only when the user hovers over the validation/error icon.
In short, we would like the validation indicator to remain visible when a cell is invalid, but the validation tooltip should only appear on hover. Currently, the tooltip remains visible as long as the cell is in an invalid state.
