This can be achieved with the following syntax. Note that this will highlight this word through the entire note.
### Abbreviation
The HTML specification
is maintained by the W3C.
*[HTML]: Hyper Text Markup Language
*[W3C]: World Wide Web Consortium
A workaround to get this functionality right away is to use:
[Display text](a "Hover text")
The link a
won't do anything.
Making the link field optional could be a nice feature to no longer need this workaround.
P.S.: I recommend you update your Boostnote to the latest version 0.15.3
I tried the abbreviation syntax but I wanted to highlight just one word. I updated to the latest version and will use the workaround for now, thanks!
Hey just use this:
[id1]: ## "your hover text"
This is a [hover text][id1] example.
Or this:
This is a [hover text](## "your hover text") example.
Works very well

Helped me a lot. Thanks!!!
None of the recommendations really work as in each case, a link is created that really does something if i click it. It either directs to the page a that doesn't exist or it directs to the position ## that adds a direction to the browsing history. In addition, it looks like a link.

It is possible that they changed how GitHub handles the double #. In my case it worked, but I also haven’t used it in a while.
GitHub? The browser handles links, not GitHub.
hovering works for me this above suggested idea but i want to bring some stylings for the in the hovered text like bold new line and italic where i use same markdown bold italic

@piiskop That's not entirely true... GitHub handles how the Markdown get's converted to HTML, so GitHub can also decide how links get "handled" or let's say "rendered".
Current behavior
You can only add a tooltip to a text if it's a link like this:
[Boostnote](https://github.com/BoostIO/Boostnote "This is Boostnote's repository")
.Boostnote
Expected behavior
I would like to be able to add a text on hover to texts that are not links, something like this:
[Boostnote]("Hover text")
