There is no straight forward API methods Java 3D have for tooltip. You have to play with mouse listeners.
Though, here is the another approach:

Welcome, also its my personal experience that, here at JR, you'll find very few Java 3D experts, so better post your J3D queries at dev.java.net forum.

Not exactly, but for any polygon drawn in the boundary box.

First, you haven't initialized SimpleUniverse instance 'u', its causing NPE. Second, isn't above links don't have any help for you.
