Description

Hello, I added a popup to the map, and it displays when the point is hovered over. In my implementation, there is a link in a popup, thus, if I move the mouse to the popup area from its point, it disappears and I can't click the link. I know I can do that with the close button, but it introduces additional actions to the close popup. What I request from you is that if the mouse is hovered over a marker or popup area, then the popup should not get close.

Is there anything in Mapbox gl that I can use to implement above feature.

please let me know if you need more details,

Thank you in advance

Research direction

Start by reading the existing popup hover and close behavior in Mapbox GL JS; the issue names no file or test. Done means a popup remains open while the pointer is over its marker or popup area, allowing links inside the popup to be clicked.
