Do you have a short compilable example program, maybe one that you used for your tests? I hope that I can find the time to look at Alvin's FL_TOOLTIP patch this weekend, and I'd like to check what you saw as well. I tried to reproduce the behavior with one of my programs, but all my widgets do either have a real tooltip, or they have an empty "" tooltip. I suppose, your observations are with a widget that has no tooltip at all (NULL). Can you confirm this?
