I have SVG map where i want to display some tooltip when user hovers the element:

const Tooltip = ({ children }) => {
    return (
        <div className="Tooltip">
            <div className="Tooltip--content">
                {children}
            </div>
        </div>
    );
}

export default Tooltip

and component

const svgField = () => {
    const tooltip = useRef(null);
  // methods

    const FieldWrapper = styled('div')(({ theme }) => ({
        width: '100%',
        height: '100%',
        position: 'relative',
        /* display */
        overflow: 'hidden',
        '&':{
            'alignItems': "center",
            'justifyContent': "center"
        },

        [theme.breakpoints.up('xs')]: {
            display: 'none'
        },
        [theme.breakpoints.up('lg')]: {
            display: 'flex'
        },
    }));

    return (
        <FieldWrapper >
            <div ref={tooltip} style={{position: 'absolute', display: 'none'}}>
                <Tooltip>
                    {currentTooltipInfo}
                </Tooltip>
            </div>
            <svg className="Field--svg"
                 width={fieldSize[0]}
                 height={fieldSize[1]}
                 sx={{
                     'padding-top':'12px'
                 }}
            >
                <g className="field">
                    {
                        fields.map((d, i) => (
                            <path
                                // 
                                onm ouseMove={(e) => handleMouseMove(e, d)}
                            />
                        ))
                    }
                </g>
            </svg>
        </FieldWrapper >
    )
}

now if i use hooks , e.g:

 const [tooltipContent, setTooltipContent] = useState(null);

and implement handleMouseMove such as:

const [tooltipContent, setTooltipContent] = useState(null);


const handleMouseMove = (evt, country) => {
    tooltip.current.style.display = "block";
    tooltip.current.style.left = evt.clientX   10   'px';
    tooltip.current.style.top = evt.clientY   10   'px';
    tooltip.current.style.border="1px solid black";

    setTooltipContent("Some content");
}

wouldnt this re-render whole component including SVG ( which is not small ) and thus affect performance while i need only to re-render tooltip element?

Is there a way how to rerender only tooltip element? I am not proficent in React so every piece of information is appreciated.

Thanks.

If you want to avoid a re-render of the SVG fragment, just extrapolate it in a new Component, and wrap it into React.memo, that way it won't re-render if the props it receives do not change.

Just make sure you take that Styled Component, FieldWrapper, out of your Component, since Styled Components must not be declared inside the body of a COmponent, or you are going to recreate a new one at each render.

One option is to memoize the SVG component.

const svg = useMemo(() => (
    <svg className="Field--svg"
        width={fieldSize[0]}
        height={fieldSize[1]}
        sx={{
            'padding-top': '12px'
        }}
    >
        <g className="field">
            {
                fields.map((d, i) => (
                    <path
                        // 
                        onm ouseMove={(e) => handleMouseMove(e, d)}
                    />
                ))
            }
        </g>
    </svg>
), [fieldSize, fields]);
return (
    <FieldWrapper >
        <div ref={tooltip} style={{ position: 'absolute', display: 'none' }}>
            <Tooltip>
                {currentTooltipInfo}
            </Tooltip>
        </div>
        {svg}
    </FieldWrapper >
);

This will result in the SVG being recalculated/rerendered only when any of the values in the dependency array change (fieldSize or fields).
