I have a list whose data is variable, so the application must know the index of the item in the list that the user selects. I know clicking on an item will set several of the List's fields, but what about hovering the mouse over that item?
I want to use tooltips to display the full version of the abbreviated text in the List. Since the user has not made a selection, I cannot use selectedIndex. How can I detect the index of the item over which the user's cursor is hovering? If a Listener is the only solution, how does it need to be done? I'm not familiar with making Listeners. Thanks!
