Class API¶

class wx.ToolTip(Object)¶

Possible constructors:

ToolTip(tip) -> None

This class holds information about a tooltip associated with a window (see Window.SetToolTip()).

Methods¶

__init__(self, tip)¶

Constructor.

Parameters:: tip (string)
Return type:: None

static Enable(flag)¶

Enable or disable tooltips globally.

Parameters:: flag (bool)
Return type:: None

Note

This function is only effective for the tooltips set using wx.Window.SetToolTip in wxMSW. It is not implemented in wxOSX or Qt and doesn’t have any effect in wxGTK with GTK 3.10 or later.

GetTip(self)¶

Get the tooltip text.

Return type:: str

GetWindow(self)¶

Get the associated window.

Return type:: wx.Window

static SetAutoPop(msecs)¶

Set the delay after which the tooltip disappears or how long a tooltip remains visible.

Parameters:: msecs (long)
Return type:: None

Note

May not be supported on all platforms (eg. Cocoa, GTK).

static SetDelay(msecs)¶

Set the delay after which the tooltip appears.

Parameters:: msecs (long)
Return type:: None

Note

May not be supported on all platforms.

static SetMaxWidth(width)¶

Set tooltip maximal width in pixels.

By default, tooltips are wrapped at a suitably chosen width. You can pass -1 as width to disable wrapping them completely, 0 to restore the default behaviour or an arbitrary positive value to wrap them at the given width.

Notice that this function does not change the width of the tooltips created before calling it.

Parameters:: width (int)
Return type:: None

Note

Currently this function is MSW-only.

static SetReshow(msecs)¶

Set the delay between subsequent tooltips to appear.

Parameters:: msecs (long)
Return type:: None

Note

May not be supported on all platforms (eg. Cocoa, GTK).

SetTip(self, tip)¶

Set the tooltip text.

Parameters:: tip (string)
Return type:: None
