Bootstrap Tooltip - Hide when another tooltip is click

Question

I hope someone can help.

I'm trying to hide the tooltip when another tooltip icon is clicked. It works but when I decide to click the last tooltip again it 'flashes' the tooltip.

var Hastooltip = $('.hastooltip');
HasTooltip.on('click', function(e) {
     e.preventDefault();
     HasTooltip.tooltip('hide');
}).tooltip({
     animation: true
}).parent().delegate('.close', 'click', function() {
     HasTooltip.tooltip('hide');
});

HTML

<a href="#" class="hastooltip" data-original-title="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.">
    <h3>Info 1</h3>
</a>

<a href="#" class="hastooltip" data-original-title="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipisicing elit.">
    <h3>Info 2</h3>
</a>

If it helps a following markup is added to the DOM when the user clicks on the button to display the tooltip.

<div class="tooltip"</div>

This can be handled more easily than the above answers indicate. You can do this with a single line of javascript in your show handler:

$('.tooltip').not(this).hide();

Here's a complete example. Change 'element' to match your selector.

$(element).on('show.bs.tooltip', function() {
    // Only one tooltip should ever be open at a time
    $('.tooltip').not(this).hide();
});

The same technique is suggested for closing popovers in this SO thread:
