Comments on: Long lines in Java Tooltips (or multiline tooltips) http://extremejava.tpk.com.br/2008/02/14/long-lines-in-java-tooltips-or-multiline-tooltips/ When vanilla Java is not enough Sat, 04 Jun 2011 12:12:50 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: edu http://extremejava.tpk.com.br/2008/02/14/long-lines-in-java-tooltips-or-multiline-tooltips/#comment-16 edu Mon, 28 Jul 2008 21:44:40 +0000 http://extremejava.tpk.com.br/2008/02/14/long-lines-in-java-tooltips-or-multiline-tooltips/#comment-16 I've done this already, but the main problem is that i want a transparent background for my tooltip. It works half a way. When the ToolTipo container (JPannel) shows inside the tooltiped control's container it is transparent (setting setOpaque to false) but when it shows partially of full outside it gets opaque ?? How is this possible, and what can i don for changinng this behavior ? Thanks. Edu I’ve done this already, but the main problem is that i want a transparent background for my tooltip.

I'm having trouble with some tooltips too, and i found out reading the source code of the java jars (via NetBeans 6.1) the same as you. I have a lot of questions on this (how to show an image is the first one...) I'm trying to override the container (the JPanel that renders the HTML) and cant find the starting point, where to start. Can ypu help me out? Thanks a lot. PD: Do you speak spanish ? Bye. Hi!
