Hi, Here is an example to specify tooltip to the menu inserted by the Addons.xcu file. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/91791736/MenuHelpTip.oxt
The entry has "foo.bar:MenuHelpTip" URL and index.xhp file contains the following bookmark and ahelp: <bookmark branch="hid/foo.bar:MenuHelpTip" id="bm_idfoobar12" localize="false"/> ... <paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_idfoobartip"><ahelp hid=".">This menu is a tooltip example.</ahelp></paragraph> The branch attribute have to match with the menu URL. Jump to a specified position in the help file is work well but sometimes not its not work because of the loading duration.
