Here are is the relevant code > excerpted from my program: Ok, thanks - I would say you're code implements tooltips for menus because menus don't support it themselves, you're building the tooltip from basic parts, rather than just setting the tooltip text and letting Qt do the work. But, it's a solution, so cool. I guess I'll try it, I think you very rarely see tooltips on menu items, maybe I'm wrong, but I haven't noticed them much.
