Tooltip - JS error ngOnInit - Cannot read properties of null (reading 'elementRef')

[Jan van Rossum]

Hi there,

I noticed in the newest version of Syncfusion, there are JS errors generated when using the tooltip in Angular.

For instance if you go to your documentation page https://ej2.syncfusion.com/angular/documentation/tooltip/getting-started/

And look at the JS console in your browser, you will see the following errors:

In other words: initializing a tooltip will give you the JS error:

TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'elementRef')

Probably some null check is forgotten somewhere.
