What's the name of the ....

Hi fellow programmers. What’s the name of the little text box (usually yellow) that makes an appearance each time the curser is on an object with a short text description of the object ? I can add the box manually each time the curser is on the object (using MouseHover or MouseEnter ) but it seems so commonly used that I figured there must be an easier way setting this (If it helps I know in JAVA it is setDescription(“blab la bla”) ) Thanks​
