    Default tool tip

    Dear All,

    Is it possible to show tool tip of an widget without keeping the mouse on that widget?

    I will click on a action which will show tool tip for the target widget.

    Waiting for ur reply!

    Thanks
    Jnana

    Default Re: tool tip

    have a look at QToolTip. One of of achieving this is to create a a QToolTip objekt yourself and displaying it at a given position. I don't know how widgets are internally notified to display a toolTip. Maybe an EnterEvent ... ? It may be possible to post the Event that triggers it with QCoreApplication:ostEvent(QObject*, QEvent*);
