[Solved] Tooltip display problem?
-
Suppose i have a window containing one button. I have set a tool tip to that button. When i click that button a new window is opened. In this case once the focus pass to new window when i take the mouse pointer to button again the tool tip is not visible(without clicking). How can i make it visible?

Does the new windows have the button too?
If so, I miss it... :P -
Not sure how to do with that. It always annoyed me that (under Linux/X11, at least) the behaviour is inconsistent between toolkits. GTK-based applications will display a tooltip even if the window hasn't focus. Qt-based ones won't.

ya luisvaldes88 exactly like that, the new window may or may not have button. do you know the solution

hi pratik041, as peppe said, Qt app don't display tooltips where they are not focused.
A solution may be, try to make the button@bool QWidget::setMouseTracking(true)@
and then do something in
@void QWidget::mouseMoveEvent ( QMouseEvent * event )@
I did not try, but in theory, whenever you pass your mouse over the button, it will create a move event that will be handled in
@void QWidget::mouseMoveEvent ( QMouseEvent * event )@
If you try it let us know
best regards.

Actually the following is working and i think it is the best solution to do this @window.setAttribute (Qt::WA_AlwaysShowToolTips, true);@

In Qt namespace documentation see Qt::WidgetAttribute type
