How to see Javadoc documentation on mouseover in NetBeans?

Is it possible when you hover over a method / class so you can see the Javadoc in NetBeans 7?

I want it similar to Eclipse when you just hover over String and you can read the Java API documentation about it.

Perhaps there is a hotkey for this ...

You can view javadoc in Netbeans by clicking on this method and pressing Ctrl + Shift + Space
You can also see various shortcuts in the help menu> keyboard shortcuts

UPDATE:

Instead, you can open the javadoc window from the Window> IDE Tools> Javadoc Documentation menu. This will show javadoc in a window near the output window for this method when you click on a method or object

I know that in netbeans 8.0 you can hold down the ctrl key and hover over a class or method, etc., and a javadoc window will appear.

Javadoc will not be displayed with the mouse, but you can click on the word (method / class / field / variable / any name) and press ctrl + space . Javadoc should appear.

You can even open the Javadoc window, and in this you can see javadoc. I prefer this way

Window β†’ Other β†’ javadoc .

Now you can see both your code and the corresponding javadoc.

Update for NetBeans 8:

Window β†’ IDE Tools β†’ Javadoc Documentation
