Hi, 1. I fully agree that the ToolTip should be _independent_ of the enabled state of the button. 1.1. It should be possible to disable/enable the tooltip in any state.
2. A quick "proposal" for a button-class with enableTooltip() and disableTooltip() methods is here: http://tinyurl.com/2gxc5uk 3. Note: This does not yet work 100% 'cause the tooltip is not shown at disabled buttons (base class of "playground.Button") Just to give some brain food for the weekend ;) /Peter On 2010-11-05 15:55 Martin Wittemann wrote: > Hey, > >> I am setting the toolTipText property for buttons in a Toolbar.
