FWIW (or perhaps for what little it's worth), this is
what MS has to say about it, at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa511495.aspx
The appropriate automatic display and removal of tips is crucial to the goal of
users maintaining control of their UI environment. Tips have three timeout
values:
* Initial. The time the pointer must remain stationary for the tip to
appear. The default time is 0.5 seconds (actually GetDoubleClickTime()).
* Reshow. The time the pointer must remain stationary as the pointer moves
from one target to another. The default time is 0.1 seconds (actually
GetDoubleClickTime() / 5).
* Removal. The time after which the tip is automatically removed. The
default time is 5 seconds (actually GetDoubleClickTime() * 10).
Cheers,
Stan
