Hi,

I have a JPanel, call it panel1, which is composed of an other JPanel
panel2.
panel2 is a final class of librarie I need.

The problem is, I need to override the getToolTipText of panel2 or it
is impossible (class is final), so how can I set the ToolTipText of
panel2 by "catching" event with my panel1 ?

thanks

Does using setToolTipText(String) help?

xt(java.lang.String)>

No,
Because the getToolTipText method is never call.
The only solution I find, it's to catch mouseMove event and
setToolTipText manually.
That is work, but I would like to have a better solution, because this
one can reduce performances of our application.

getToolTipText doesn't get called if the tooltip hasn't been set to a
value different than null using setToolTipText(String).

For further information, see:

Actually, that is how tooltips work.

Hi,

When I initialize my panel I do a setToolTip("");
But the getToolTip of my children is not called by the system

getToolTip isn't used most of the time. the code in setToolTip fires an
event that notifies Swing that it should do a pop-up.
