/*
 * In its current form QToolTip is not extensible. So this is an attempt to provide a more
 * flexible and customizable tooltip mechanism for Creator. Part of the code here is duplicated
 * from QToolTip. This includes a private Qt header and the non-exported class QTipLabel, which
 * here serves as a base tip class. Please notice that Qt relies on this particular class name in
 * order to correctly apply the native styles for tooltips. Therefore the QTipLabel name should
 * not be changed.
