Prevent overlap with target element?

[tconroy]

hey.. how do I prevent the tooltip from covering / overlapping the target element? I want the target to remain completely visible, with the tooltip positioned otuside its bounding box (top/left/right/bottom, doesn't matter).

You can move it out of the way using the offset option. Usage is offset: [x,y]. Using a -y value will move the element up when it is pointing down at the target
