Setting ScreenTip in Excel Hyperlinks using Apache-POI

Go To StackoverFlow.com

I am using POI 3.8 to create Excel sheets using Java

I have created hyperlinks successfully using the method explained by Prashant Jadhav in How to Create Hyperlink to a filter on other sheet using Apache poi in Java?

However I would like to set the ScreenTip as well

I tried

linkPrint.setLabel("Print");

but to no avail.

Is this even possible?

Thanks!

POI 1.8, are you serious? That was never officially released, and would date from about 8 years ago! Is there a reason why you're not using a release from this decade - Gagravarr 2012-04-04 21:44
Thank you Gagravarr. I corrected the typo. I meant 3.8 not 1.8 - gordon613 2012-04-05 11:31

There is not possible for the current implementation for the HyperLink in Apache POI to include a tooltip. Check the HyperLink interface. It only has 4 properties :

  • The link address.
  • The link label.
  • The link type which is a read-only property.
