[jira] Updated: (PIVOT-565) Use TextArea in default tooltip rather than Label

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-565?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Greg Brown updated PIVOT-565:
-----------------------------

        Summary: Use TextArea in default tooltip rather than Label  (was: New multiline text Tooltip constructor)
       Priority: Minor  (was: Major)
    Description: 
This would allow callers to more easily specify tooltips that contain line breaks.


  was:
Please add a third org.apache.pivot.wtk.Tooltip constructor that takes a string.
This would then construct a tooltip that can potentially display multiline text.
This solution offers greater compatibility and less breakage to earlier versions
of Pivot, and at the same time probably covers 99% of all Tooltip usage.

new Tooltip("This\nis\na\nmultiline\nTooltip\ntext");

Also the setTooltipText of the Component class could use a TextArea under the
hood by default, allowing for myButton.setTooltipText("Multiline\nTooltip\ntext");


Renaming issue to more accurately reflect intent and possible solution.
