A tooltip is specified via a set-tooltip command in a pick (or slider or knob) animation's <hovered> bindings group. The tooltip is configured at this time, especially content and an ID. The mouse-handling system then displays the tooltip at the correct time. This design allows us to show tooltips at configurable points, either the standard method - after the mouse is stationary for a period of time - or in response to other actions, such as mouse clicks/drags. | A tooltip is specified via a set-tooltip command in a pick (or slider or knob) animation's <hovered> bindings group.

The tooltip-id is important to distinguish when the mouse moves over different scene objects (with potentially the same tooltip), or crosses between different objects without an intervening hit on an area with no tooltip assigned. In both cases, the ID is necessary to give correct updating. | The <code>tooltip-id</code> is important to distinguish when the mouse moves over different scene objects (with potentially the same tooltip), or crosses between different objects without an intervening hit on an area with no tooltip assigned.
