[jira] Created: (PIVOT-225) Add a "balloon" component
Add a "balloon" component
-------------------------
Key: PIVOT-225
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-225
Project: Pivot
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: wtk
Affects Versions: 1.3
Reporter: Greg Brown
Priority: Minor
Fix For: 1.4
This component would be similar to a tooltip, but would display an arrow pointing to the screen element to which it applies. Like tooltip, it would also extend Window, but would provide a close button rather than auto-hiding when the mouse is moved. Not sure how it would be invoked - we could add a "balloonHelp" property to Component and automatically handle it in ComponentSkin, but it might make more sense to simply require callers to instantiate and manage these.
