All Implemented Interfaces:

Animation, Editable, StyleListener, Iterable<Component>

Deprecated.

this class is superceded by TextComponent which includes a more thorough implementation of the functionality and improved API

public class FloatingHint
extends Container

A floating hint is similar to a text field with a hint. However, when the text field has text in it the hint appears above the text field instead including an animation when focus hits the text field see Googles take on this.

	Form hi = new Form("Floating Hint", BoxLayout.y());
	TextField first = new TextField("", "First Field");
	TextField second = new TextField("", "Second Field");
	hi.add(new FloatingHint(first)).
	add(new FloatingHint(second)).
	add(new Button("Go"));
	hi.show();
