How do I display tooltips in Tkinter?

Tooltips are useful in applications where we need to display some information while hovering on a button.

In order to create and display a tooltip, we can use the Balloon property of tkinter.

Example

#Import the tkinter library from tkinter import * from tkinter.tix import * #Create an instance of tkinter frame win = Tk() #Set the geometry win.geometry("600x450") #Create a tooltip tip = Balloon(win) #Create a Button widget my_button=Button(win, text= "Hover Me") my_button.pack(pady=20) #Bind the tooltip with button tip.bind_widget(my_button,balloonmsg="www.tutorialspoint.com") win.mainloop()

Output

The above code will display the following window with a button "Hover Me". When the user hovers over the button, it will show a tooltip text.
