# Hoverintent
HoverIntent is a wrapper component that attempts to determine the user's intent of hovering over the child element in which case returns the `onMouseOver` event or `onMouseOut` if `onMouseOver` was previously triggered. The most common scenarios:
1. Having a button that triggers a popover (example below). In that case, when user hovers their mouse fast over the element but doesn't stop over the element then `onMouseOver` will not be triggered.
2. Evaluating the users intention to move the cursor to a flyout submenu.

## Props
`onMouseOver` : The callback to fire on mouse over event
`onMouseOut` : The callback to fire on mouse out event
`timeout` :
A simple delay, in milliseconds, before the `onMouseOut` callback is fired. If the user mouses back over the element before the timeout has expired the `onMouseOut` callback will not be called (nor will the `onMouseOver` callback be called). This is primarily to protect against sloppy/human mousing trajectories that temporarily (and unintentionally) take the user off of the target element... giving them time to return.
Default `timeout: 0`
`sensitivity` :
If the mouse travels fewer than this number of pixels between polling intervals, then the `onMouseOver` callback will be called. With the minimum sensitivity threshold of 1, the mouse must not move between polling intervals. With higher sensitivity thresholds you are more likely to receive a false positive.
Default `sensitivity: 7`
`interval` :
The number of milliseconds hoverIntent waits between reading/comparing mouse coordinates. When the user's mouse first enters the element its coordinates are recorded. The soonest the `onMouseOut` callback can be called is after a single polling interval. Setting the polling interval higher will increase the delay before the first possible `onMouseOver` call, but also increases the time to the next point of comparison.
Default `interval: 700`
## Example
```javascript
import clsx from 'clsx';
import HoverIntent from 'calypso/lib/hover-intent';
class App extends Component {
constructor() {
super();
this.state = { mouseover: false };
}
onMouseOver = () => {
this.setState( { mouseover: true } );
};
onMouseOut = () => {
this.setState( { mouseover: false } );
};
render() {
const { mouseover } = this.state;
return (
<div className="container">
<HoverIntent
onMouseOver={ this.onMouseOver }
onMouseOut={ this.onMouseOut }
sensitivity={ 10 }
interval={ 1000 }
timeout={ 250 }
>
<button>Hover</button>
</HoverIntent>
<span className={ clsx( 'popover', { open: mouseover } ) }>Hover</span>
</div>
);
}
}
```
