setTooltip

I create a Tooltip on a JTable with
jTable.setToolTipText(strTooltiptext)
with MouseMotionListener on jTable.

The problem is that the Tooltip only refresh when the Tooltiptext is
changed.
I want to refresh the Tooltip with every Tablecell independent from
the Tooltiptext.
How can I perform this ?

I try to delete the Tooltip with jTable.setToolTipText(null) and set
with jTable.setToolTipText(strTooltiptext) but if the Tooltiptext is
not changed to the old text there was no repaint of the Tooltip and
the Tooltip position does not change.

Thanks for help

according to javadoc, you should set tooltip text for TableCellRenderer, not
for JTable
