How to change tooltip position in AppDesigner?

Hello dear community,

I have created a GUI in appdesigner. I created a checkbox with a label text and a button right side of the check box. I have created a tooltip string for checkbox and whenever user holds the mouse arrow over checkbox or its label my tooltip string shows up. That works perfectly.

The problem is that: The tooltip string box comes just right side of the check box which prevents to see my button I have created and I want to change the position of the tooltip string. It can be above or below the check box or left side of it. But I couldn't find anything related to the tooltip position.

Do we have any property for that? Or any java object property, etc?

Thanks very much!

@Luna How did you create the tooltip string for the checkbox on App Designer ? Did you implement it in the Callback function of the checkbox? I am trying to create a similar effect but with edit field instead of a checkbox.

In MATLAB R2020b the tooltip shows up closer to where the mouse cursor is hovering.

Ideally, this will help prevent the case where neighboring components are hidden because of a tooltip.

b = uibutton;
b.Tooltip = 'tooltip';
