block widgets display on mouse event

1

I would like to change the block widget content when mouse hovers on the dom that generated the block widget. Is there an easy way to do it?

2

What does “the dom that generated the block widget” mean?

3

Sorry for not being clearer. I meant: change block widget content when the mouse hover over a code block.

There’s no automated way to do that – you’ll have to listen to mouse events to detect the hover, and replace the widget.

5

Yes but how can i update the widget content inside the event handler. I wonder what triggers the widget update?

You should be able to use a plugin that exposes decorations, change the decoration set on the appropriate DOM effects, and call view.update([]) to have the view redraw the decorations.
