Tooltips

[d.healey]

Since the HISE header has been replaced with the floating tile system will there be (or is there already) a Tool Tip floating tile type?

Not yet, but its on my Todo list. However I am currently extremely busy with other stuff so it might take a while before I find time to do that.

Alright, here we go:

Content.makeFrontInterface(600, 500);
const var FloatingTile = Content.addFloatingTile("FloatingTile", 51, 36);
// [JSON FloatingTile]
Content.setPropertiesFromJSON("FloatingTile", {
  "width": 400,
  "height": 28
});
// [/JSON FloatingTile]

const var d = {
  "Type": "TooltipPanel",
  "ColourData": {
  	"textColour": "0xFF0000FF",
  	"bgColour": "0xFFFF0000",
  	"itemColour1": "0xFF00FF00"
  },
  "Font": "Arial Bold",
  "FontSize": 18.0
};

FloatingTile.setContentData(d);

It seems tooltips don't work for sliders/knobs

@Christoph-Hart Do you have the time to fix the tooltip for sliders, please?

[LightandSound]

@ustk Seconded, would be hugely helpful right now ^^

Where were things left off with Tooltips/Sliders? It's been a while since I've messed with them. I slightly remember them not working at all with sliders. Today, it looks like they are working correctly within HISE but not on exported plugins. Is that what everyone else is seeing?

EDIT:
Scratch that... My HISE directory was accidentally pointed at an older location. Tooltips/sliders working as expected here

@Christoph-Hart is it possible to get the tooltip text to word-wrap in the floating tile?
