TooltipManager

Overview:

This singleton class manages the enabling and disabling of controller tooltips. These tooltips mostly appear and disappear during the tutorial, and assist in guiding the player to the appropriate controller button.

Requirements:

A [VRTK] prefab to exist on the same scene.

How to use:

Drag the TooltipManager prefab from Assets/Prefabs/Managers and place it onto the scene.
To enable tooltips on the controller using this script, use EnableIndividualControllerTooltip(int index). For the parameter, use the public enum Buttons which currently has 5 available buttons to toggle the tooltips of.
To disable tooltips, you can manually do so by using DisableIndividualControllerTooltip(int index). This script also disables tooltips upon usage. Once it detects the usage or press of a corresponding controller button, it will disable that button's tooltip.
For both public methods, call them from another script with TooltipManager.instance.doPublicMethod((int)Buttons.WhateverButtonToToggle)

public enum Buttons

This public enum can be used by other scripts as long as TooltipManager is on the same scene.

These are the current 5 enumerations:

Touchpad = 0
Trigger = 1
Minimap = 2
Grip = 3
Geornal = 4

Warning! When using the enum, you must "cast" it as an int by having (int) in front of the enum.

For ex)

(int)Buttons.Touchpad would be correct, while

Buttons.Touchpad alone would be incorrect!
