java.lang.Object
  org.nuiton.widget.datatips.DataTipManager

public class DataTipManager
extends Object

DataTipManager provides data tips for tree, table and list components. Whenever the mouse cursor is over a cell whose content is partially hidden a popup with the complete cell content is shown. The cell content can be hidden because it is clipped at either the parent component bounds (e.g. scrollpane) or at the cell bounds (e.g. table row height is too small).
