igPopover

The pointer is mispositioned in Chrome on page loading

In Google® Chrome™ browser, if the igPopover control appears upon the initial loading of the page, the pointer is not positioned properly relative to the content frame.

The issue occurs because the DOM element is loaded, but the content is not, so the width and height of the target element are 0.

Workaround 1: Set width and height of the target element with the style attribute.

In HTML:

style="width:160px;height:160px"

Workaround 2: Invoke the show method of the igPopover inside the $(window).load() function.

In JavaScript:

$(window).load(function () {
            $('#imgPopover').igPopover("show");
        });
