JavaFX Tooltip

JavaFX Tool tip is used to provide hint to the user about any component. It is mainly used to provide hints about the text fields or password fields being used in the application.

It can be created by instantiating javafx.scene.control.Tooltip class. The following code implements Tooltip about a password field to the user.

package application;
import javafx.application.Application;
import javafx.scene.Scene;
import javafx.scene.control.PasswordField;
import javafx.scene.control.Tooltip;
import javafx.scene.layout.StackPane;
import javafx.stage.Stage;
public class ProgressBarTest extends Application {
public void start(Stage primaryStage) throws Exception {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
	PasswordField pf = new PasswordField();
	Tooltip tool=new Tooltip();
	StackPane root = new StackPane();
	tool.setText("Information");
	pf.setTooltip(tool);
	root.getChildren().add(pf);
	
	Scene scene = new Scene(root,300,200);
	primaryStage.setScene(scene);
	primaryStage.setTitle("ToolTip Example");
	primaryStage.show();
	
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
		launch(args);	
	}
}
