How to speed up tool tips ( hints ) ??

hi folks
does any one know how to speed up tool tips in mac ??
if u go to any tool in any application in mac and hold your mouse on it for a second , a tip will be showen telling you something on this tool
in mac i have to wait 2 - 3 second so i can see the tips
why ??
hope to find answer

I believe the default time for Cocoa apps is 2 seconds in Leopard. You can speed this up with a Terminal command. Launch Terminal, then copy and paste this command and press the Return key:
defaults write -g NSInitialToolTipDelay -int 100
That final number is milliseconds, so that should be rather speedy. It will also speed up the display of the location when you mouse over your Spotlight results. You may have to restart to see the change. Don't know what, if anything, you can do for Carbon apps.

  • How can i get tool tips to show on slideshow thumbnails?

    How can i get tool tips to show on slideshow thumbnails? I used the widget "blank" composition for a slideshow then i placed the tooltips widget composition over them and made them transparent, but that prevents a user from clicking on the thumbnails... Any ideas?

    I also want to note, i tried putting in tool tips as well as alt. text but only the first thumbnail is included in the HTML...I went through the code and it all my text is missing. I have to manually edit the html in edge reflow or dreamweaver. Muse should fix this - and i know "this is in the wrong section" and not in bugs and new ideas but it relates to my first post...

  • How to make a tool tip that can be selected

    i am making an online system that reads contacts from the addressbook of a user in his database. i want that every time the user enters a key on the input field in html, a script searches for a matching contact in the database and displays it in a tooltip that could be selected so that the user will not type any further and just select on the matching contacts. how do i do this? tnx

    Well, that does not have much to do with Graphics, which might explain why no answers were given so far...
    Basically, you need to look into AJAX. Set the onClick event handlers of the field to send an asynchronous request to the server, parse the response and put it into an initially invisible div, that is placed just under that text field.
    Have a look at prototype.js, here:

    Hope that helps.

  • How to control tool tip popup?

    Dear all:
    How can I control tool tip popup whenever I want ? and the position?

    I've been looking at this myself recently, and have come to the conclusion that it's easier to show a JWindow with a JLabel insteadWell it depends on the actual requirement.
    To simply force a tooltip to display in its default location for the component you can use:
    Action toolTipAction = component.getActionMap().get("postTip");
    if (toolTipAction != null)
         ActionEvent postTip = new ActionEvent(component, ActionEvent.ACTION_PERFORMED, "");
         toolTipAction.actionPerformed( postTip );}
    To force a tooltip to display is a specific location you need to get a little more creative. We tried code something like:
    int delay = ToolTipManager.sharedInstance().getInitialDelay();
    ToolTipManager.sharedInstance().mouseEntered( create a mouse entered event );
    ToolTipManager.sharedInstance().mouseMoved( create a mouse moved event);
    ToolTipManager.sharedInstance().setInitialDelay(delay);The above code should dislay the tooltip, but it will be hidden based on the rules of the tooltip manager.
    If you want a more permanent tooltip that you can control when it is visible or hidden then I would use a PopupFactory. The basic code is:
    JToolTip tooltip = component.createToolTip();
    toolTip.setTipText(...);
    PopupFactory factory = PopupFactory.getSharedInstance();
    popup = factory.getPopup(component, toolTip, x, y);
    popup.show();Now you are responsile for invoking the popup.hide() method.

    How to implement Dynamic Tool TIP in the Table Control for Particularly One Columnn.
    i.e rows in that Column.
    Note : Column contains Currency Type Data
    For that column, i am calculating the Quantity Multiplied with the Exchange Rate.

    Hi
    Take Text Element Radio button there  and give any number and activate.
    If the Visible lenght of the Table Control Field is less than actual length of the Content, it automatically displays the Tool Tip.
    I just did it.

  • Tool Tip(Mouse Over)

    Hello All,
    I need to create a Tool Tip (Mouse Over) in BI. Requirement is *" I have a dashboard report which shows the different trends by arrows going up & down. When i take my mouse over the Up arrow, a text should come up which says 'Trend is up, because you gained as compared to last quarter'. similarly for Arrow going down. "*
    How to create such tool tip (mouse over) in BI. Please suggest.
    Regards,
    Ashish A.

    Hi Ashish, first of all, I am not sure to do a Tool-Tip-Text for Column Headers.
    As far as the column formulas, you can still use the code i sent and embed in the already updated column.
    Ex: Lets assume you have updated the formula of the column Products."Product ID" as REPLACE(Products."Product ID",'000','1111') || '_PD'. To show Products.Product_Name as a tool tip to the updated ProductID, you can embed the code as
    'OpenTag div title=" '|| Products.ProductName || ' " closetag' || REPLACE(Products."Product ID",'000','1111') || '_PD' || 'opentag /div closetag'
    Thanks

  • Tool-Tip Text for button

    Hello,
    I have a button which I have statically associated with a tool-tip text.
    I did this by setting the TooltipText to a text element.
    However, when I run my program, the tool-tip does not appear
    for the button. This button does not have any text it it, only an ICON.
    Therefore, I need a tool-tip to inform the user about the functionality
    of the button.
    Can anyone please tell me how the display the tool-tip?
    Best regards,
    Divyaman Singh Rawat

    HI,
            Go to screen layout and double click on the button for which you are setting the toop tip text. Then Attributes window will open. In that window, Just below the 'Icon name' field, there is 'Tooltip' field. You give the tool tip text there.
    Also Dont forget to save the layout. After saving come to flow logic and activate the program and run. Then it definetely shows the tool tip when you place the mouse pointer on the button.
    Cheers

  • Tooltips (tool tips) do not show in Illustrator 14.0.0 (CS4)

    Hello,
    Today when I launch Illustrator CS4, I'm unable to see the tooltips that appear when the mouse hovers over the tools or any of the buttons on the panels. I'm still able to see the pop-up tooltips on the artboards (e.g., smart guide information).
    I've double checked the preference option to ensure that "show tool tips" is checked.
    I also deleted the preferences file (AIPrefs) in case it was corrupted.
    None of this worked.
    Does anyone know how to make the tool-tips appear again?
    thanks in advance!
    JP

    Hi Scott,
    Thanks for the reply. I'm farily certain that the mouse is not moving from any vibrations (heavy mouse, no detectible vibrations, etc.). If I leave my mouse over a tool and leave my hand off the mouse for a while, no tooltips.
    ... after rebooting my machine (Vista x64), the tooltips seem to have come back on. Like others have mentioned in these threads, it seems to take either about 4 seconds and/or mousing over several tools before the tooltips appear.... so I think this issue has resolved itself after the reboot.
    thanks,
    JP

  • No provision to provide Tool tip for Default Panel Collection Components

    "View" is a default menu item provided by Panel Collection Component. The "shortDesc" property can set the tool tip for entire panel collection.
    How to set the tool tip specifically for the default components given by panel collection component ?

    Hi,
    panel collection labels and tool tips can be changed through skinning See http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/apirefs.1111/e15862/toc.htm and search for af:panelCollection and go to the Resource String section. So far the good news. The bad news is that there is no skin selector to change the tool tip of the "View" menu option (though yo can change the label through af_panelCollection.LABEL_MENU_VIEW). If you need this, please file an enhancement request through customer support.
    Frank
    Ps.: Skinning is documented here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/b31973/af_skin.htm#BAJFEFCJ

  • Set tool tip on an image

    hi there,
    does anyone know how to set a tool tip on an image?
    easy to do that on a button - e.g.,
              dbButton      = new JButton ("", new ImageIcon("images/db.gif"));
              dbButton.setToolTipText("check connection to the database");
    but what if i have an image such as:
              DefaultEditorKit.CutAction cutImage = new DefaultEditorKit.CutAction();
              cutImage.putValue( Action.NAME, "Cut" );
              cutImage.putValue( Action.MNEMONIC_KEY, new Integer(KeyEvent.VK_T) );
              cutImage.putValue( Action.ACCELERATOR_KEY, KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_X, InputEvent.CTRL_MASK) );
              cutImage.putValue( Action.SMALL_ICON, new ImageIcon("images/Cut.gif") );
    anyone?

    The code you posted here is not the same as the code I gave you in your previous post. Before you remove lines of code you should understand what they do. One line you removed is important, the other isn't. Read the Action API for more information.
    Also, there is no reason you can't do:
    cut = new JButton(Action);
    cut.setToolTipText("Cut");

  • How can I turn off the yellow pop-up tool tips?

    Howdy,
    I have searched high and low in the preferences and found nothing that does the trick. How can I turn off the yellow pop-up tool tips?
    See attached screen shot. They are incredibly annoying. It's probably obvious, but I cannot find it anywhere on internets or this forum.
    Thanks!

    Thanks Nancy. Unfortunately that doesn't do it. I turned those off awhile back. Nor can I find anything under VIEW that seems to make a difference.  Just FYI: I'm on a Mac OS w/Dreamweaver CS6 - but this has happened on previous versions of DW. Thanks again.
