It is drawn immediately below the region in a distinctive black-on-yellow combination. The tip can be any Rich-Text formatted string. QToolTipGroup provides a way for tool tips to display another text elsewhere (most often in a \link QStatusBar status bar\endlink). At any point in time, QToolTip is either dormant or active. In dormant mode the tips are not shown and in active mode they are. The mode is global, not particular to any one widget. QToolTip switches from dormant to active mode when the user hovers the mouse on a tip-equipped region for a second or so and remains active until the user either clicks a mouse button, presses a key, lets the mouse hover for five seconds or moves the mouse outside \e all tip-equipped regions for at least a second. The QToolTip class can be used in three different ways: \list 1 \i Adding a tip to an entire widget. \i Adding a tip to a fixed rectangle within a widget. \i Adding a tip to a dynamic rectangle within a widget. \endlist To add a tip to a widget, call the \e static function QToolTip::add() with the widget and tip as arguments: \code QToolTip::add( quitButton, "Leave the application" ); \endcode This is the simplest and most common use of QToolTip. The tip will be deleted automatically when \e quitButton is deleted, but you can remove it yourself, too: \code QToolTip::remove( quitButton ); \endcode You can also display another text (typically in a \link QStatusBar status bar),\endlink courtesy of \l{QToolTipGroup}. This example assumes that \e grp is a \c{QToolTipGroup *} and is already connected to the appropriate status bar: \code QToolTip::add( quitButton, "Leave the application", grp, "Leave the application, prompting to save if necessary" ); QToolTip::add( closeButton, "Close this window", grp, "Close this window, prompting to save if necessary" ); \endcode To add a tip to a fixed rectangle within a widget, call the static function QToolTip::add() with the widget, rectangle and tip as arguments. (See the \c tooltip/tooltip.cpp example.) Again, you can supply a \c{QToolTipGroup *} and another text if you want. Both of these are one-liners and cover the majority of cases. The third and most general way to use QToolTip requires you to reimplement a pure virtual function to decide whether to pop up a tool tip. The \c tooltip/tooltip.cpp example demonstrates this too. This mode can be used to implement tips for text that can move as the user scrolls, for example. To use QToolTip like this, you must subclass QToolTip and reimplement maybeTip(). QToolTip calls maybeTip() when a tip should pop up, and maybeTip() decides whether to show a tip. Tool tips can be globally disabled using QToolTip::setGloballyEnabled() or disabled in groups with QToolTipGroup::setEnabled(). You can retrieve the text of a tooltip for a given position within a widget using textFor(). The global tooltip font and palette can be set with the static setFont() and setPalette() functions respectively. \sa QStatusBar QWhatsThis QToolTipGroup \link guibooks.html#fowler GUI Design Handbook: Tool Tip\endlink */ /*!
