Global Attributes: Once defined, these attributes will be available to add for all the products. They will be listed in the attributes section of the product, from where you can choose them from the dropdown. Local Attributes: While global attributes are available to select for all products, local attributes are those that are custom-added to a particular product from the attributes section inside the product details.

The tooltip is used to set the hover element for each term of an attribute/variation. To set the tooltip for swatches: Navigate to Swatches Options → Swatches Designs→ Tooltip Styling Enable the checkbox → Enable tooltip. Save the changes. 👉Note: In the free version, only the attribute term name is displayed as a tooltip. The premium version allows displaying images and descriptions in tooltips.
