<p>The tip is a short piece of text reminding the user of the widget's function. It is drawn immediately below the given position in a distinctive black-on-yellow color combination. The tip can be any <a href="qtextedit.html">rich text</a> formatted string.</p>
<p>Rich text formatted tips implictely do word breaking, unless specified differently with <tt><p style='white-space:pre'></tt>.</p>
<p>The simplest and most common way to set a widget's tooltip is by calling its <a href="qwidget.html#toolTip-prop">QWidget.setToolTip</a>() function.</p>
<p>It is also possible to show different tool tips for different regions of a widget, by using a <a href="qhelpevent.html">QHelpEvent</a> of type <a href="qevent.html#Type-enum">QEvent.ToolTip</a>. Intercept the help event in your widget's <a href="qwidget.html#event">QWidget.event</a>() function and call <a href="qtooltip.html#showText">QToolTip.showText</a>() with the text you want to display. The <a href="widgets-tooltips.html">Tooltips</a> example illustrates this technique.</p>
<p>See also <a href="qwidget.html#toolTip-prop">QWidget.toolTip</a> and <a href="qaction.html#toolTip-prop">QAction.toolTip</a>.</p>

The optional widget argument, <i>w</i>, is used to determine the appropriate screen on multi-head systems. If <i>text</i> is empty the tool tip is hidden.</p>
