    tooltip with function description

    Hi,
    When a function of the framwork is being called by an object of its
    class, a tooltip pops up on the screen with the definition of the
    function as well as a description of what the function does.
    When I call my own functions of my own classes, the tooltip appears but
    it only contains the function's definition. How can I add the
    description as well ?

    Regards

    That's done through XML files:
