Method Detail

show

void show(javax.swing.JComponent parentComponent,
          int x,
          int y,
          javax.swing.JComponent focusBackComponent,
          HintHint hintInfo)

Parameters:

parentComponent - defines coordinate system where hint will be shown.

x - x coordinate of hint in parent coordinate system

y - y coordinate of hint in parent coordinate system

focusBackComponent - component which should get focus when the hint will

isVisible

boolean isVisible()

Returns:

whether the hint is showing or not

hide

void hide()

Hides current hint object.

Note: this method is also used as a destruction callback, i.e. it performs necessary de-initialization when current hint is not necessary to use anymore. Hence, it's necessary to call it from place where you definitely know that current hint will not be used.

addHintListener

void addHintListener(HintListener listener)

removeHintListener

void removeHintListener(HintListener listener)

pack

void pack()

setLocation

void setLocation(RelativePoint point)
