Just like a normal table cell, but each table cell has a tooltip that will display its contents. This makes it easier for the user: they can read the contents without having to expand the table cell.
Feel free to make any suggestions or additions.
The goal here is ease of use.
- Put this class in your project (copy and paste, unless you know another way)
- Apply it to your column via
someColumn.setCellFactory(TooltippedTableCell.forTableColumn()); - Rejoice.
