Description Rüdiger Herrmann CLA 2011-01-18 12:19:03 EST 
Like ColumnViewerToolTipSupport#enableFor() can be used to activate tooltips on a TableViewer, it should also be possible to activate tooltips for a TreeViewer.

I saw changes regarding cell tooltips for the Tree arrive in CVS (including the JFace API part), but it doesn't seem to work.
Am I missing something?

Hi Ruediger, could you provide a snippet that doesn't work for you?
Comment 4 Rüdiger Herrmann CLA 2011-01-28 10:55:02 EST 
I extended the TreeViewerExample from the org.eclipse.rap.examples.pages plug-in:
* added ColumnViewerToolTipSupport.enableFor( viewer ) after creating the TreeViewers
* implemented getToolTipText() in the label provider
Is there anything else necessary to get tooltips for the TreeViewer?

I did exactly the same testing.... and it works. Make sure that you do this for the second TreeViewer (with columns). Just found that is doesn't work for Tree/TableViewer without columns (first TreeViewer).
Comment 6 Rüdiger Herrmann CLA 2011-01-28 11:07:56 EST 
Thanks for the fast reply, Ivan. I only used the column-less TreeViewer. It works on the one with columns.
Comment 7 Ivan Furnadjiev CLA 2011-01-28 11:39:20 EST 
The cell tooltips for column-less Tree/TableViewer is fixed in CVS HEAD.

Is this worth a N&N entry? What do you think?
Comment 9 Ivan Furnadjiev CLA 2011-01-28 13:00:03 EST 
Sure... I plan to write it on Monday :-)
