Inheritance diagram for wxToolTip:

Detailed Description

This class holds information about a tooltip associated with a window (see wxWindow::SetToolTip()).

The four static methods, wxToolTip::Enable(), wxToolTip::SetDelay() wxToolTip::SetAutoPop() and wxToolTip::SetReshow() can be used to globally alter tooltips behaviour.

Library:  wxCore

Public Member Functions
	wxToolTip (const wxString &tip)
	Constructor.
wxString	GetTip () const
	Get the tooltip text.
wxWindow *	GetWindow () const
	Get the associated window.
void	SetTip (const wxString &tip)
	Set the tooltip text.
Public Member Functions inherited from wxObject
	wxObject ()
	Default ctor; initializes to NULL the internal reference data.
	wxObject (const wxObject &other)
	Copy ctor.
virtual	~wxObject ()
	Destructor.
virtual wxClassInfo *	GetClassInfo () const
	This virtual function is redefined for every class that requires run-time type information, when using the wxDECLARE_CLASS macro (or similar).
wxObjectRefData *	GetRefData () const
	Returns the wxObject::m_refData pointer, i.e. the data referenced by this object.
bool	IsKindOf (const wxClassInfo *info) const
	Determines whether this class is a subclass of (or the same class as) the given class.
bool	IsSameAs (const wxObject &obj) const
	Returns true if this object has the same data pointer as obj.
void	Ref (const wxObject &clone)
	Makes this object refer to the data in clone.
void	SetRefData (wxObjectRefData *data)
	Sets the wxObject::m_refData pointer.
void	UnRef ()
	Decrements the reference count in the associated data, and if it is zero, deletes the data.
void	UnShare ()
	This is the same of AllocExclusive() but this method is public.
void	operator delete (void *buf)
	The delete operator is defined for debugging versions of the library only, when the identifier WXDEBUG is defined.
void *	operator new (size_t size, const wxString &filename=NULL, int lineNum=0)
	The new operator is defined for debugging versions of the library only, when the identifier WXDEBUG is defined.

Static Public Member Functions
static void	Enable (bool flag)
	Enable or disable tooltips globally.
static void	SetAutoPop (long msecs)
	Set the delay after which the tooltip disappears or how long a tooltip remains visible.
static void	SetDelay (long msecs)
	Set the delay after which the tooltip appears.
static void	SetMaxWidth (int width)
	Set tooltip maximal width in pixels.

	Set the delay between subsequent tooltips to appear.

Additional Inherited Members
Protected Member Functions inherited from wxObject
void	AllocExclusive ()
	Ensure that this object's data is not shared with any other object.
virtual wxObjectRefData *	CreateRefData () const
	Creates a new instance of the wxObjectRefData-derived class specific to this object and returns it.
virtual wxObjectRefData *	CloneRefData (const wxObjectRefData *data) const
	Creates a new instance of the wxObjectRefData-derived class specific to this object and initializes it copying data.
Protected Attributes inherited from wxObject
wxObjectRefData *	m_refData
	Pointer to an object which is the object's reference-counted data.

wxToolTip::wxToolTip

(

const wxString &

tip

)

Constructor.

Member Function Documentation

static void wxToolTip::Enable ( bool  flag )

static

Enable or disable tooltips globally.

Note

May not be supported on all platforms (eg. wxCocoa).

wxString wxToolTip::GetTip

(

)

const

Get the tooltip text.

wxWindow* wxToolTip::GetWindow

(

)

const

Get the associated window.

static void wxToolTip::SetAutoPop ( long  msecs )

static

Set the delay after which the tooltip disappears or how long a tooltip remains visible.

Note

May not be supported on all platforms (eg. wxCocoa, GTK).

static void wxToolTip::SetDelay ( long  msecs )

static

Set the delay after which the tooltip appears.

Note

May not be supported on all platforms (eg. wxCocoa).

static void wxToolTip::SetMaxWidth ( int  width )

static

Set tooltip maximal width in pixels.

By default, tooltips are wrapped at a suitably chosen width. You can pass -1 as width to disable wrapping them completely, 0 to restore the default behaviour or an arbitrary positive value to wrap them at the given width.

Notice that this function does not change the width of the tooltips created before calling it.

Note

Currently this function is wxMSW-only.

static void wxToolTip::SetReshow ( long  msecs )

static

Set the delay between subsequent tooltips to appear.

Note

May not be supported on all platforms (eg. wxCocoa, GTK).

void wxToolTip::SetTip

(

const wxString &

tip

)

Set the tooltip text.
