Hi All,

Please review a fix for an issue whereby Java developer is not able to to force the tooltips to be displayed in a heavyweight popup.

In ToolTipManager#showTipWindow() , even if we do "ToolTipManager.setLightWeightPopupEnabled(false)" we can only force a medium weight popup as can be seen here

[http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/client/file/f054a3a03050/src/java.desktop/share/classes/javax/swing/ToolTipManager.java#l338]

In addition, there is also a field "heavyWeightPopupEnabled" inside the ToolTipManager which is not used.. There should be at least one way to force a heavy weight popup in the ToolTipManager.

Proposed fix is to give an option to developer to force tooltip to be displayed in HW. CSR will be raised after technical review
