\class HbToolTip
\brief The HbToolTip class provides tool tips (balloon help) for any graphics item.
\mainclass
The tip is a short piece of text reminding the user of the
graphics item's function.
The simplest and most common way to set a graphics item's tool tip is by
calling its QGraphicsItem::setToolTip() function.
When a tooltip is currently on
display, isVisible() returns true and text() the currently visible
text.
By default the tool tip framework is responsible for showing and hiding the tool tips
on the scene. When the framework detects a long mouse press event it checks what is the
top most QGraphicsItem on the scene having non empty tooltip text under the press point and
sends an QGraphicsSceneHelpEvent to it. This makes it possible that QGraphicsItem derived
objects can implement their own tool tip showing logic. If the sent QGraphicsSceneHelpEvent
event is accepted by the QGraphicsItem object then framework does nothing. Otherwise it shows
the tool tip text with Qt::AlignTop alignment.
In rare cases QGraphicsItem derived classes can handle QGraphicsSceneHelpEvent to provide
custom tool tip showing logic. An example on how to get custom tooltip alignment
on a QGraphicsItem derived class.

/*!
\overload
This is analogous to calling HbToolTip::showText(\a text, \a item,
item->boundingRect(), \a preferredAlignment)
*/
void HbToolTip::showText( const QString &text, QGraphicsItem *item,
Qt::Alignment preferredAlignment )
{
showText( text, item, item ? item->boundingRect() : QRectF(), preferredAlignment );
}
/*!
Shows \a text as a tool tip, with the prefererred alignment \a preferredAlignment in relation
to \a item.
If you specify a non-empty rect the tip will be hidden as soon
as you move your cursor out of this area.
The \a rect is in the coordinates of the graphics item you specify with
\a item.
If \a text is empty or the item 0 the tool tip is hidden.
The supported alignment flags are Qt::AlignTop, Qt::AlignRight, Qt::AlignLeft,
Qt::AlignTop|Qt::AlignRight, Qt::AlignTop|Qt::AlignLeft. Any other alignment flags are ignored.
Alignment flags are referring to the side of \a item i.e. when \a preferredAlignment
equals Qt::AlignTop the tool tip is aligned to the top of \a item and so on.
When Qt::AlignTop|Qt::AlignLeft combination is used the bottom-right corner of the tool tip is
aligned to the top-left corner of \a item. When Qt::AlignTop|Qt::AlignRight combination is used
the bottom-left corner of the tool tip is aligned to the top-right corner of \a item.
HbToolTip uses QStyle::visualAlignment() to transforms \a preferredAlignment according to the
current layout direction. Qt::AlignAbsolute is supported the way is described
in QStyle::visualAlignment().
If the tool tip could not be aligned properly i.e. without intersecting \a item's bounding
rectangle by using the provided \a preferredAlignment then it will be aligned by another
supported alignment option.
If none of the supported alignment options results proper alignment then Qt::AlignTop will
be used.
