How about a work around:
private function init():void
{
var toolTipString:String = "You need to save your
changes!";
saveTip =
ToolTipManager.createToolTip(toolTipString,50,50) as ToolTip;
saveTip.setStyle("styleName", "errorTipGreen");
var TLM:TextLineMetrics =
saveTip.measureText(saveTip.text);
var paddingLeftPx:int = saveTip.getStyle("paddingLeft")
as int;
var paddingRightPx:int =
saveTip.getStyle("paddingRight") as int;
saveTip.width = TLM.width + 2 * paddingLeftPx + 2 *
paddingRightPx;
}
