The ToolTip class provides a flexible tooltip widget for tkinter; it is based on IDLE's ToolTip
|
|
module which unfortunately seems to be broken (at least the version I saw).
|
|
INITIALIZATION OPTIONS:
|
|
anchor : where the text should be positioned inside the widget, must be on of "n", "s", "e", "w", "nw" and so on;
|
|
default is "center"
|
|
bd : borderwidth of the widget; default is 1 (NOTE: don't use "borderwidth" here)
|
|
bg : background color to use for the widget; default is "lightyellow" (NOTE: don't use "background")
|
|
delay : time in ms that it takes for the widget to appear on the screen when the mouse pointer has
|
|
entered the parent widget; default is 1500
|
|
fg : foreground (i.e. text) color to use; default is "black" (NOTE: don't use "foreground")
|
|
follow_mouse : if set to 1 the tooltip will follow the mouse pointer instead of being displayed
|
|
outside of the parent widget; this may be useful if you want to use tooltips for
|
|
large widgets like listboxes or canvases; default is 0
|
|
font : font to use for the widget; default is system specific
|
|
justify : how multiple lines of text will be aligned, must be "left", "right" or "center"; default is "left"
|
|
padx : extra space added to the left and right within the widget; default is 4
|
|
pady : extra space above and below the text; default is 2
|
|
relief : one of "flat", "ridge", "groove", "raised", "sunken" or "solid"; default is "solid"
|
|
state : must be "normal" or "disabled"; if set to "disabled" the tooltip will not appear; default is "normal"
|
|
text : the text that is displayed inside the widget
|
|
textvariable : if set to an instance of tkinter.StringVar() the variable's value will be used as text for the widget
|
|
width : width of the widget; the default is 0, which means that "wraplength" will be used to limit the widgets width
|
|
wraplength : limits the number of characters in each line; default is 150
|
|
|
|
WIDGET METHODS:
|
|
configure(**opts) : change one or more of the widget's options as described above; the changes will take effect the
|
|
next time the tooltip shows up; NOTE: follow_mouse cannot be changed after widget initialization
|
|
|
|
Other widget methods that might be useful if you want to subclass ToolTip:
|
|
enter() : callback when the mouse pointer enters the parent widget
|
|
leave() : called when the mouse pointer leaves the parent widget
|
|
motion() : is called when the mouse pointer moves inside the parent widget if follow_mouse is set to 1 and the
|
|
tooltip has shown up to continually update the coordinates of the tooltip window
|
|
coords() : calculates the screen coordinates of the tooltip window
|
|
create_contents() : creates the contents of the tooltip window (by default a tkinter.Label)
|
