UITooltip Theming Parameters

The UIToolTip theming block id is 'tool_tip'.

Misc

UITooltip accepts the following miscellaneous parameters in a 'misc' block:

  • "rect_width" - The width of the rectangle around the tool tip in pixels, including any shadows or borders. The height is determined dynamically.

Sub-elements

The UIToolTip contains a UITextBox so you can use the block ID 'tool_tip.text_box' to start styling it.

There is more information on theming the text box at UITextBox Theming Parameters.

Example

Here is an example of a tool tip block in a JSON theme file, using parameters from the text box element.
