java添加组件不显示不出来,使用Swing组件作为内容的自定义Java工具提示不会显示...

I'm trying to show multiple images in a component's tooltip, found createToolTip() and implemented a custom that adds the needed components like this:

setComponent(component);

JPanel images = new JPanel(null);

images.setLayout(new BoxLayout(images, BoxLayout.X_AXIS));

for(ImageIcon icon:myIcons) {

images.add(new JLabel(icon));

}

JPanel content = new JPanel(new BorderLayout());

content.add(new JLabel(title), BorderLayout.NORTH);

content.add(new JLabel(description));

content.add(images, BorderLayout.SOUTH);

add(content);

However, all I see is a little dot, indicating that the tool tip is shown, but somehow the size is ignored. What do I miss implementing a custom tooltip?

The base "problems" are that JToolTip

is-not designed as a container, it's only accidentally a container because JComponent is. For a Swing "not-container" its the responsibility of the ui-delegate to act as LayoutManager.

isn't rich enough, it can handle text-only (at least with the emergency door html, which is @Andrew's favourite :-)

By-passing those limitations basically is a driving that widget nearly over the edge. A clean solution would roll a new component .. On the other hand, the OP already found the screws to tweak. The only thingy that could be slightly improved is to neither call setXXSize, nor set a custom ui. Instead, make it behave like a container by overriding getXXSize() like:

@Override

public Dimension getPreferredSize() {

if (getLayout() != null) {

return getLayout().preferredLayoutSize(this);

}

return super.getPreferredSize();

}
