I have searched the email archives and found that a call to...

    ToolTipManager ttm = ToolTipManager.sharedInstance();
    ttm.setLightWeightPopupEnabled(false);

... is needed to make tooltips show up in an app mixing heavy- and
light-weight components.  Sure enough, my tooltip shows up... white text
on white background.

Also, making a call to JComponent.createToolTip() returns a JToolTip,
which is lightweight, so that doesn't make any sense.  How can I get
hold of the tooltip to set the colors (which I wouldn't think I would
have to do.)
