autoFlipHorizontally | boolean | If a node has been attached to the left but there isn't enough space on the screen it will automatically be positioned to the right. |
onClickOutside | function: (event: Event) => void | A handler that is called on every click on any element outside of the anchor element and the stick node. |
inline | boolean | If set to true , the stick node will not be rendered detached but inside the same container as the anchor node. |
updateOnAnimationFrame | boolean | If set to true , will update the stick node position on every animation frame. Per default, it will only update on idle callback. |
component | string | Pass any string-type React component that shall be rendered as the wrapper element around the children. Per default, "div" is used. |
