hi ...
Pls help me in solving this problem

I am using org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Canvas and displaying a image over it.
This image has small rectangles at few places. What i require is to show tooltip when mouse moves over a particular rectangle. These tooltips are different for different rectangles

I tried to solve this by adding MouseMoveListener on canvas and overriding mousemove method, when mouse moves over specified coordinates it shows tooltip. But this fails when i zoom in and out image(because coordinates are changed).

I have around 2500 images to go, all have the possibility of zoom in and out. So i need help in

1) adding tooltips at some specific points in image, which also works when i zoom in and out
2) Knowledge about some framework available to tag images and add tooltips, which may simplify my task.

Thanks in advance Cool
