So you click on the pixmap, and then move the mouse to some place, but as your mouse goes to the coveted control, there is a risk that the tooltips fires for another one and disables tooltips too early, no? (Not sure my explanation is understandable) Or can you do like the ? button in windows that changes the cursor until you click at the right place? At least this is probably something people wil understand easily. But it may be too complicated... JMarc
