Thanks Martin - but we aren't having a problem with the ToolTip :-)
The classes in question are JMeter classes that extend JPanel, and
have _private_ gui elements such as TextField and TextArea.
The patch proposes to add set/get ToolTip methods for these. However
using the same name overrides the ToolTip methods for the superclass.

Hi Sebb,
I don't know the code, the reason I didn't respond before :)
The problem is a known issue (with a number of components) and is solved like
this :
public Point getToolTipLocation(MouseEvent event) {
if (getToolTipText(event) == null) {
Point point = new Point(event.getX(), event.getY());
return point;
}
return super.getToolTipLocation(event);
}
Which is just needed when no tooltip seems to work (= override from JComponent
btw).
Hope this is useful.
Mvgr,
Martin
