Tooltip extra large [message #131971]

Hi,

When I create a tool tip on an element with a label, the tool tip is
very big.

Label labelView = new Label(text);
labelView.setSize(10, 10);
((ClasseFigure) getFigure()).setToolTip(labelView);

Have you an idea ?

Thanks

I use the tooltip code from "GMF Tips":

if (getToolTip() == null) {
setToolTip(new Label(tooltipText));
} else if (getToolTip() instanceof Label) {
((Label) getToolTip()).setText(tooltipText);
}

Is there a way to make something like a text area instead of a long
string of characters - like eclipse does?

ex:
______________________________
|Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla.|
|Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla.|
------------------------------

instead of:
___________________________________________________________
|Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla. Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla.|
-----------------------------------------------------------

Merry Christmas :)
