how do i reduce the tool tip text pop up Delay?

Question

Is it possible to make a ToolTipText pop up instantly on hover instead of having to wait the 2-3 sec delay?`

button1.setToolTipText("hi")

Answer 1

Try using ToolTipManager#setInitialDelay(long milliseconds)

Just understand that this will effect all the tooltips in your application and AFAIK, there is no way to effect a single tooltip without implementing the entire base API yourself
