A modern and fully customizable tooltip library for PyQt and PySide

![ZToolTip](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/0313ffc7-560b-4665-a652-e1e2601fcbaa)

## Features

- Fixed and automatic placement
- Customizable triangle
- Customizable animations and delays
- Fully customizable and modern UI
- Works with `PyQt5`, `PyQt6`, `PySide2`, and `PySide6`

## Installation

```sh
pip install ztooltip
```

## Usage

```python
from PyQt6.QtWidgets import QMainWindow, QPushButton
from ztooltip import Tooltip, TooltipPlacement


class Window(QMainWindow):
    def __init__(self):
        super().__init__(parent=None)

        # Add button
        self.button = QPushButton('Button', self)
        
        # Add tooltip to button
        self.tooltip = Tooltip(self.button, 'This is a tooltip')
```

The tooltip will automatically be shown while hovering the widget. If you want to manually
show and hide the tooltip, you can use the `show()` and `hide()` methods:

```python
tooltip.show()
tooltip.hide()
```

To delete a tooltip, you can use the `deleteLater()` method:

```python
tooltip.deleteLater()
```

To get notified when a tooltip gets shown or hidden, you can subscribe to the `shown` and `hidden` signals:

```python
tooltip.shown.connect(lambda: print('shown'))
tooltip.hidden.connect(lambda: print('hidden'))
```

## Customization

* **Setting the widget:**

```python
tooltip.setWidget(widget)  # Default: None
```

* **Setting the text:**

```python
tooltip.setText('Text of the tooltip')  # Default: ''
```

* **Setting the placement:**

```python
tooltip.setPlacement(TooltipPlacement.RIGHT)  # Default: TooltipPlacement.AUTO
```

> **AVAILABLE PLACEMENTS:** <br> `AUTO`, `LEFT`, `RIGHT`, `TOP`, `BOTTOM`

* **Enabling or disabling the triangle:**

```python
tooltip.setTriangleEnabled(False)  # Default: True
```

* **Setting the size of the triangle:**

```python
tooltip.setTriangleSize(7)  # Default: 5
```

* **Setting a duration:**

```python
tooltip.setDuration(1000)  # Default: 0
```

> The duration is the time in milliseconds after which the tooltip will start fading out again.
> If the duration is set to `0`, the tooltip will stay visible for as long as the widget is hovered.

* **Adding delays to the fade in / out animations after hovering the widget:**

```python
tooltip.setShowDelay(500)  # Default: 50
tooltip.setHideDelay(500)  # Default: 50
```

* **Setting the durations of the fade in / out animations:**

```python
tooltip.setFadeInDuration(250)   # Default: 150
tooltip.setFadeOutDuration(250)  # Default: 150
```

* **Setting the refresh rate in Hz:**

```python
tooltip.setRefreshRate(30)  # Default: 60
```

* **Setting the border radius:**

```python
tooltip.setBorderRadius(0)   # Default: 8
```

* **Enabling or disabling the border:**

```python
tooltip.setBorderEnabled(False)   # Default: True
```

* **Setting custom colors:**

```python
tooltip.setBackgroundColor(QColor('#FCBA03'))   # Default: QColor('#FFFFFF')
tooltip.setTextColor(QColor('#000000'))         # Default: QColor('#373737')
tooltip.setBorderColor(QColor('#A38329'))       # Default: QColor('#CDCFD6')
```

* **Setting a custom font:**

```python
tooltip.setFont(QFont('Consolas', 10))  # Default: QFont('Arial', 9, QFont.Weight.Bold)
```

* **Applying margins to the content of the tooltip:**

```python
tooltip.setMargins(QMargins(10, 8, 10, 8))  # Default: QMargins(12, 8, 12, 7)
```

* **Setting a maximum width:**

```python
tooltip.setMaximumWidth(150)  # Default: 16777215 (QWIDGETSIZE_MAX)
```

* **Enabling or disabling text centering for wrapped text:**

```python
tooltip.setTextCenteringEnabled(False)  # Default: True
```

* **Enabling or disabling the drop shadow:**

```python
tooltip.setDropShadowEnabled(False)  # Default: True
```

* **Changing the drop shadow strength:**

```python
tooltip.setDropShadowStrength(3.5)  # Default: 2.0
```

* **Making the tooltip translucent:**

```python
tooltip.setOpacity(0.8)  # Default: 1.0
```
