Tooltips
for Widgetry.
This
version is intended for VW 7.6, not previous versions.
1. New tooltips from VW 7.6:
The Tooltips intruduced in VW 7.6 are adapted for Widgetry. Now,
every widget will display its #helpText as tooltip.
The functionality is the
same as in VW 7.6:
- can show strings and UserMessages
- can show
arbitrary VisualComponents
- cannot show Widgetry.Forms
- only on the
widget level
- not yet able to show full entries in lists or tables
The usage is simple: To show Strings or UserMessages, you simply
call #helpText: with it.
Since helpTexts are defined as StringAttributes, it
is, unfortunately, not possible to display formated text.
If you want to roll
your own, you can use #tooltip: of the Agent to show Text or Graphics.
2. Bugfixes
- selections in entry widgets are not cleared
when focussing out
- Mouse event error in DropDownList
Details:
- The changes are integrated into the main bundle to
avoid overrides.
- TooltipAssistant is copied and abapted to widgetry
-
The HoverHelpWindow and the StateMachine are used from the [Tools-Hoverhelp]
package
- A compatibility method from [WidgetryWrapper] is moved to here
-
No tests. I didnt add any test and I didnt fix any. I did run some tests and a
couple failed (in the original version), but I didnt investigate.
Licence: same as
Widgetry
