     * Displays a standard Hover canvas containing the specified HTML content.<br> This method may also be called to modify the
     * content of the hover if it is already showing. Call {@link com.smartgwt.client.widgets.Hover#hide Hover.hide} to hide
     * the canvas again.<br> A common use case for calling this method is to asynchronously fetch detail data from the server
     * about some component, and display it in the Hover canvas when the data is returned. Note that in this case you will
     * typically need to verify that the user is still hovering  over the component in question before calling Hover.show() -
     * if the user has moved the mouse  off the component, the information will not apply to whatever is now under the mouse. 
     * Suggested approaches for handling this are to either use a {@link com.smartgwt.client.widgets.Canvas#addMouseOutHandler
     * Canvas.mouseOut} handler to track when the user moves off the component, or checking {@link
     * com.smartgwt.client.util.EventHandler#getTarget EventHandler.getTarget} as part of the asynchronous callback <p> The
     * default Hover canvas position will be based on the mouse pointer position, adjusted by {@link
     * com.smartgwt.client.widgets.Hover#leftOffset leftOffset} and {@link com.smartgwt.client.widgets.Hover#topOffset
     * topOffset}. If this position would render the Hover canvas partially clipped, it will be automatically modified to
     * ensure the Hover  is entirely visible.
     * @param contents contents for the hover
     * @param properties object containing attributes for managing the hover canvas'   appearance. Valid properties include:<ul>  <li>left, top,
