Hello,

I add a problem marker with below code. It shows up on the ProblemView and just left of line 11 via a error-icon.
When I move the mouse over the error-icon I would like a tooltip to show up with the message-text.
How do I do this ?

IMarker marker6 = file.createMarker(IMarker.PROBLEM);
lineNumber = 11;
marker6.setAttribute(IMarker.LINE_NUMBER, lineNumber );
marker6.setAttribute(IMarker.MESSAGE, "Mess 8");
marker6.setAttribute(IMarker.TEXT, "Text 8");
marker3.setAttribute(IMarker.PRIORITY, IMarker.PRIORITY_HIGH);
marker6.setAttribute(IMarker.SEVERITY , IMarker.SEVERITY_ERROR);

Is this for you own/custom editor?

Yes it is. Do you know how to do it ?

If you use the Platform Text framework to create your editor then a
mistake could be that you only use/set your plug-ins preference store
into the editor instead of using a combined preference store that also
includes the general text editor store, e.g.:

IPreferenceStore[] stores = new IPreferenceStore[2];
stores[0] = YOUR_PLUGIN.getDefault().getPreferenceStore();
stores[1] = EditorsUI.getPreferenceStore();
setPreferenceStore(new ChainedPreferenceStore(stores));

If that's not the case then I suggest to debug into
org.eclipse.ui.editors.text.TextSourceViewerConfiguration.ge tAnnotationHover(ISourceViewer)
and
org.eclipse.jface.text.source.DefaultAnnotationHover.getHove rInfo(ISourceViewer,
int).

HTH

In your editor. Check for calls to setPreferenceStore(...).

I added the code (see below) ... and checked via debug if the plugin goes through the code (and it does off course, no errors) ... but still no tooltips.

Perhaps it's not possible to have tooltips on Markers ? ... or did you succeed in it ?

public class XMLEditor extends TextEditor
{
private ColorManager colorManager;
private IEditorInput input;
private EditorContentOutlinePage outlinePage;

public XMLEditor()
{
super();
colorManager = new ColorManager();
setSourceViewerConfiguration(new XMLConfiguration(colorManager));
setDocumentProvider(new XMLDocumentProvider());

IPreferenceStore[] stores = new IPreferenceStore[2];
stores[0] = EditorArticlePlugin.getDefault().getPreferenceStore();
stores[1] = EditorsUI.getPreferenceStore();
setPreferenceStore(new ChainedPreferenceStore(stores));

}

Maybe I misunderstood you: where exactly do you want the tool tip to appear?

I want it to appear when I move the mouse over a marker in the editor. A marker is a small icon (f.e. an error-icon) just left of the line where the error occurs.
Just as in the Java editor ... when you make a syntax error ... a red icon appears left off the line ... and when you move your mouse over it ... it shows the syntax-error.

OK, then we're on the same page ;-)

It should work as described. The normal text editor also shows that tool
tip e.g. for bookmarks or tasks and it uses the DefaultAnnotationHover
that's configured by the TextSourceViewerConfiguration.
