Description

Add tips to your widgets

Synopsis

Detail

Tooltips are the messages that appear next to a widget when the mouse pointer is held over it for a short amount of time. They are especially helpful for adding more verbose descriptions of things such as buttons in a toolbar.

An individual tooltip belongs to a group of tooltips. A group is created with a call to tooltipsNew. Every tooltip in the group can then be turned off with a call to tooltipsDisable and enabled with tooltipsEnable.

This module is deprecated. It is empty in Gtk3.
