# buttonToolTip

The tool tip that is shown when the mouse cursor is over the color picker’s button image.

```
var buttonToolTip: String { get }
```

## Discussion

Override this property’s getter method to provide a custom tool tip. The default implementation returns the name of the receiver’s class. If you want the color picker to have no tool tip, return an empty string.
