        <ejs-tooltip ref="tooltip" class="tooltipcontainer" :cssClass="cssClass" content='Tooltip arrow customized'>
            <div id="target">
                Show tooltip
            </div>
        </ejs-tooltip>
    </div>
</template>
<script setup>
import { TooltipComponent as EjsTooltip } from "@syncfusion/ej2-vue-popups";
