styleguide section on tooltips is wrong or easily misunderstood #75

@allefeld

Description

@allefeld

Under "Tooltips", the styleguide says:

You do not create the markup directly. You call element.setTooltip(title, {command, commandElement}={}). Passing in a command (like find-and-replace:show-find) and commandElement (context for the command) will yield a tip with a keystroke.

I've tried this, and there is no method setTooltip, at least not on regular HTML elements.

Either I completely misunderstand (which might indicate that that text is easily misunderstood), or it refers to something that no longer exists. As far as I can tell, the standard method to create tooltips is described in the Flight Manual under TooltipManager. I propose that the text in the styleguide refers to that.
