    \brief Provides tool tips for any control.
 
    A tool tip is a short piece of text that informs the user of a control's
    function. It is typically placed above or below the parent control. The
    tip text can be any \l{Rich Text Processing}{rich text} formatted string.
 
    \image qtquickcontrols-tooltip.png
 
    \section2 Attached Tool Tips
 
    The most straight-forward way to setup tool tips for controls is to
    specify \l text and \l {visible}{visibility} via attached properties.
    The following example illustrates this approach:
 
    \snippet qtquickcontrols-tooltip.qml 1
 
    Under normal circumstances, there is only one tool tip visible at a time.
    In order to save resources, all items that use the ToolTip attached property
    share the same visual tool tip label instance. Even though the visuals are
    shared, \c text, \c timeout and \c delay are stored individually for each item
    that uses the respective attached property. However, multiple items cannot
    make the shared tool tip visible at the same time. The shared tool tip is only
    shown for the last item that made it visible. The position of the shared tool
    tip is determined by the framework.
 
    \include qquicktooltip.qdocinc customize-note
 
    \section2 Delay and Timeout
 
    Tool tips are typically transient in a sense that they are shown as a
    result of a certain external event or user interaction, and they usually
    hide after a certain timeout. It is possible to control the delay when
    a tool tip is shown, and the timeout when it is hidden. This makes it
    possible to implement varying strategies for showing and hiding tool tips.
 
    For example, on touch screens, it is a common pattern to show a tool tip
    as a result of pressing and holding down a button. The following example
    demonstrates how to delay showing a tool tip until the press-and-hold
    interval is reached. In this example, the tool tip hides as soon as the
    button is released.
 
    \snippet qtquickcontrols-tooltip-pressandhold.qml 1
 
    With pointer devices, however, it might be desired to show a tool tip as
    a result of hovering a button for a while. The following example presents
    how to show a tool tip after hovering a button for a second, and hide it
    after a timeout of five seconds.
 
    \snippet qtquickcontrols-tooltip-hover.qml 1
 
    \section2 Custom Tool Tips
 
    Should one need more fine-grained control over the tool tip position, or
    multiple simultaneous tool tip instances are needed, it is also possible
    to create local tool tip instances. This way, it is possible to
    \l {Customizing ToolTip}{customize} the tool tip, and the whole \l Popup
    API is available. The following example presents a tool tip that presents
    the value of a slider when the handle is dragged.
