Using ToolTips

Since version 0.10 it is possible to use tooltips for entry widgets. See below code snippet

w99 = FloatEntry(self.frmButtonsIndividualContent, width=10, textvariable=self.__safety_Z, mandatory=False) w99.grid(row=row, column=3, sticky=W) ToolTip(w99, text="move Z to this value if finished")

Save object into a variable. Via this variable you can put the widget into your grid and use the reference for your tooltip. You can use more parameters for the ToolTip

def __init__(self, widget, bg='#FFFFEA', pad=(5, 3, 5, 3), text='widget info', waittime=400, wraplength=250)
