How to create an item tooltip

[klaro00]

Hi,

I's like to show an item tooltip (when hovering over certain control). It's not the problem to register the required mouse event listener. What I need is a way to display the tooltip itself when the item (e.g. a potion, a weapon, ...) is given/known, e.g. by an item link or whatever.

I noticed the "TooltipControl" which seems to be fairly complicated for creating a tooltip from scratch. There must be some higher level function(s) from ZO which manages tooltip creation. Also I do want to look the tooltips not any different, so the best would be to use existing ZO code. But I can't find any code example or other hint. I searched half of the Internet, I promise

Cheers,
