I would like to show a tooltip, i.e. additional non-essential information about a View
when the user long-clicks on it.
The two options I see in front of me are using an OnLongClickListener to construct a custom tooltip in front of the clicked View; or abusing an OnCreateContextMenuListener to create a context menu that isn't.
Neither seems like the best way to go about things, and I'm not sure whether either will work. I've scoured the web and haven't found any hints. Any alternatives, or should I be wet-fish-slapped for trying to do this? Thanks!
