No, I didn't know that, I mean, yes I knew TTS_CLOSE but it did
nothing when I tested it. I've never dreamed that it may be related to
the visual styles... (I used to delete .manifest files without
hesitation if they come with apps). Bad habbit... Thanks!

Now PP's tooltips have the Layered style defaultly too, so, no need to
trans stuff anymore. They can be safely commented out. So, is this
also related to the visual styles? Hmm... a bit strange as other apps
have DropShadow/Layered-style without .manifest files. Then, maybe
depends on Compilers too? The reason why PP doesn't have them
defaultly without .manifest file is because PP is compiled with VC5?
Actually I have no idea about compilers as I've never compiled myself
before.

Oh, I forgot. The cross-hair didn't work in your system either?
It used to work fine by mere one execution in my system, suddenly now
I have to execute it constantly to get it back.
