Hi,

Has anyone implemented a dynamic tooltip or is there any current implementation?

My tooltip is suppose to display some fields in my model. However the fields in my model changes and the tooltip is suppose to reflect it. Currently what I did is to fire a property change to change my tooltip whenever there is changes to my model.

However there are cons to this method as all my figures have to have a tooltip object. As there only 1 tooltip is to be display at a time, is there a method for me to share a single tooltip object?

Hi,

Figure class has setTooltip(IFigure) and getTooltip(). which can be
update at refreshVisuals() when property changed. What you need may be
saticified is create a tooltip Figure subclass, sucn as Label or others.
