API Reference

Root

Contains all the parts of an avatar.

PropTypeDefault
asChild
boolean
false

Image

The image to render. By default it will only render when it has loaded. You can use the onLoadingStatusChange handler if you need more control.

PropTypeDefault
asChild
boolean
false
onLoadingStatusChange
function
No default value

Fallback

An element that renders when the image hasn't loaded. This means whilst it's loading, or if there was an error. If you notice a flash during loading, you can provide a delayMs prop to delay its rendering so it only renders for those with slower connections. For more control, use the onLoadingStatusChange handler on Avatar.Image.

import * as Avatar from "@radix-ui/react-avatar";

import * as Tooltip from "@radix-ui/react-tooltip";



export default () => (

	<Tooltip.Root>

		<Tooltip.Trigger>

			<Avatar.Root>…</Avatar.Root>

		</Tooltip.Trigger>



		<Tooltip.Content side="top">

			Tooltip content

			<Tooltip.Arrow />
