public class FloatingHint
ImplementsAnimation, Editable, Iterable<Component>, StyleListener
com.codename1.ui.TextComponent which includes a more thorough implementation of the functionality and improved APIA floating hint is similar to a text field with a hint. However, when the text field has text in it the hint appears above the text field instead including an animation when focus hits the text field see Googles take on this.
Form hi = new Form("Floating Hint", BoxLayout.y());
TextField first = new TextField("", "First Field");
TextField second = new TextField("", "Second Field");
hi.add(new FloatingHint(first)).
add(new FloatingHint(second)).
add(new Button("Go"));
hi.show();
The animation effect
