Class RichTooltip

java.lang.Object

org.pushingpixels.flamingo.api.common.RichTooltip

public class RichTooltip
extends java.lang.Object

Rich tooltip for command buttons.

In its most basic form, the rich tooltip has a title and one (possible multiline) description text:

 +--------------------------------+
 | Title                          |
 |        Some description text   |
 +--------------------------------+
 

The #addDescriptionSection(String) can be used to add multiple sections to the description:

 +--------------------------------+
 | Title                          |
 |        First multiline         |
 |        description section     |
 |                                |
 |        Second multiline        |
 |        description section     |
 |                                |
 |        Third multiline         |
 |        description section     |
 +--------------------------------+
 

The #setMainImage(Image) can be used to place an image below the title and to the left of the description sections:

 +--------------------------------+
 | Title                          |
 | *******  First multiline       |
 | *image*  description section   |
 | *******                        |
 |          Second multiline      |
 |          description section   |
 +--------------------------------+
 

The #addFooterSection(String) can be used to add (possibly) multiple footer sections that will be shown below a horizontal separator:

 +--------------------------------+
 | Title                          |
 |        First multiline         |
 |        description section     |
 |                                |
 |        Second multiline        |
 |        description section     |
 |--------------------------------|
 | A multiline footer section     |
 | placed below a separator       |
 +--------------------------------+
 

The #setFooterImage(Image) can be used to place an image to the left of the footer sections:

 +--------------------------------+
 | Title                          |
 |        First multiline         |
 |        description section     |
 |                                |
 |        Second multiline        |
 |        description section     |
 |--------------------------------|
 | *******  A multiline           |
 | *image*  footer section        |
 | *******                        |
 +--------------------------------+
 

Here is a fully fledged rich tooltip that shows all these APIs in action:

 +--------------------------------+
 | Title                          |
 | *******  First multiline       |
 | *image*  description section   |
 | *******                        |
 |          Second multiline      |
 |          description section   |
 |--------------------------------|
 | *******  First multiline       |
 | *image*  footer section        |
 | *******                        |
 |          Second multiline      |
 |          footer section        |
 +--------------------------------+
