I'm currently developing a java/swing project, and i'm stuck in the customization process.

I've extended JToolTip and overrided the paint() method to draw my own tooltip, but i can't manage to remove the background around the tooltip.

Here's the paint() override:

/* (non-Javadoc)

* @see javax.swing.JComponent#paint(java.awt.Graphics)

*/

@Override

public void paint(Graphics g) {

String text = getComponent().getToolTipText();

if (text != null && text.trim().length() > 0) {

// set the parent to not be opaque

Component parent = this.getParent();

if (parent != null) {

if (parent instanceof JComponent) {

JComponent jparent = (JComponent) parent;

if (jparent.isOpaque()) {

jparent.setOpaque(false);

}

}

}

// create a round rectangle

Shape round = new RoundRectangle2D.Float(4, 4, this.getWidth() - 1 - 8, this.getHeight() - 1 - 8, 8, 8);

// draw the background

Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g.create();

g2.setRenderingHint(RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING, RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);

g2.setColor(getBackground());

g2.fill(round);

// draw the left triangle

Point p1 = new Point(4, 10);

Point p2 = new Point(4, 20);

Point p3 = new Point(0, 15);

int[] xs = {p1.x, p2.x, p3.x};

int[] ys = {p1.y, p2.y, p3.y};

Polygon triangle = new Polygon(xs, ys, xs.length);

g2.fillPolygon(triangle);

// draw the text

int cHeight = getComponent().getHeight();

FontMetrics fm = g2.getFontMetrics();

g2.setColor(getForeground());

if (cHeight > getHeight())

g2.drawString(text, 10, (getHeight() + fm.getAscent()) / 2);

else

g2.drawString(text, 10, (cHeight + fm.getAscent()) / 2);

g2.dispose();

}

}

Here's the (white) background i want to remove:

I'm running java 1.7.0_05 under OSX.
