Org links already have tooltips out of the box. You can also display the
tooltip in the echo area by pressing <C-h .> (`display-local-help').
If you want to try the code from my first post, please replace the
`my-org-fn-make-tooltips' function with this new version, which is much
simpler and doesn't have time-consuming issues to create or update
tooltips.
(However, I find the function I put in my second post more useful (for
my use case: I don't use the mouse very much).
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(defun my-org-fn-make-tooltips ()
(interactive)
(org-element-map (org-element-parse-buffer) 'footnote-reference
(lambda (ref)
(let* ((label (org-element-property :label ref))
(label-from (org-element-property :begin ref))
(label-to (org-element-property :end ref))
(def (org-with-wide-buffer
(org-footnote-goto-definition label)
(let* ((e (org-element-context))
(from (org-element-property :contents-begin e))
(to (org-element-property :contents-end e)))
(buffer-substring-no-properties from to))))
(tooltip def))
(add-text-properties label-from label-to
`(help-echo
,tooltip))))
nil nil))
#+end_src
