| <h2>SWT standalone example - Hover Help</h2> |
| |
| <p> |
| The Hover Help example shows how to implement custom tooltips and hover help support |
| on various SWT controls including Buttons, TableItems, ToolItems and TreeItems. |
| To see the custom tooltips in action, hover over an item or button in the UI, and |
| notice that images appear in the left-hand corner of the tooltip. |
| To see the custom hover help in action, hover over an item or button in the UI until |
| the tooltip is displayed. Then, without moving the mouse, press <strong>F1</strong> and a new |
| Shell will be shown with the extended hover help information for the UI element. |
