We should all really push for this feature to be fully implemented.  I have 
often wanted it myself to put context sensitive help in my applications.

Subject: [perl-win32-gui-users] Tool Tips

Hello All,

I have now exhausted most combinations of things that seem logical, however
I still can't get the tool tips to work.

What Objects can I place it on. I'm trying to get a tip to appear on
buttons.

# Create Button object - SetCWD
$btnSetCWD = $MainWin->AddButton(
   -name        => "btnSetCWD",
   -text        => "Set",
   -width       => 80,
   -height      => 23,
   -left        => 516,
   -top         => 260,
   -tabstop     => 1,
   -font        => $Font,
   -tooltips    => 1,
        );

# Create Tooltip object
$ttipSetCWD = new Win32::GUI::Tooltip(
        -parent     => $btnSetCWD,
        -name       => "ttipSetCWD",
        -text       => "Text to display as tooltip",
        );

I have scoured the net for any examples but have not found a worked example
and the Win32::GUI docs are not expansive enough for me to figure it out
(read dumb!).

Has anyone else managed to get this to work?

Chris

afaik, tool tips are not yet implemented. I also spent a lot of time on
them because the manual gives the impression of tool tips being
available. The only implemented tool tip is the one that comes with the
system tray icon.

I'd be glad to learn otherwise though.
