Tooltips for the netbeans IDE

How do I get tooltip help from Netbeans 7.3? And side-by-side dropdown boxes which divert me to the correct classes and methods? Thanks Jack

This helped me, but already posted on another thread was the answer here TLDR: Control + Shift + Space

You can get tooltip help from the IDE by hovering a line that has some sort of light bulb on the left of your code like below:

Then Pressing Alt-Enter the IDE will give you a list of suggestions of how you can improve/modify your code.

Also you can get the auto complete functionality by pressing CTRL+SPACE in the code editor. This will bring up any javadoc information about the Method/Object/etc like below:
