Which versions of Angular, Material, OS, TypeScript, browsers are affected?

Is there anything else we should know?

Having the title attribute set will cause the browser tooltip to be shown. Passing a translated string should be handled by you.
You can do something like this

<span class="cdk-visually-hidden" #translatedTooltipMessage i18n="@@myTranslation">Will be translated</span>
...
<button [matTooltip]="translatedTooltipMessage.innerHTML">I have a translated tooltip</button>

@msc117 Wow, it's a nice trick, but will be a cool having this method inside directive.

[msc117]

I haven't tried something like this before, but would this work?

<button i18n-matTooltip matTooltip="To be translated"></button>

[zverbeta]

Maybe i trying wrong, but string above doesn't work

[andrewseguin]

Closing since we don't want to overload the title attribute and change default behavior of it

the i18n-matTooltip works well
