Ellipsis should be avoided according to Microsoft recommendations. Menu items are the only exception:
Word 2007 does it right. The header of the tooltip has no ellipsis.
 XTP 13.3.1 does not take care of this! It's rather ugly to have three dots in the tooltip...
Modify RibbonSample:
pCommandBars->GetCommandBarsOptions()->bShowPopupBarToolTips = TRUE;
ID_EDIT_PASTE_SPECIAL "Insert Clipboard contents with options\nPaste &Special..."
Then you get this:

znakeeye, just so you know, the three dots are called an ellipsis (...), not a hyphen (-).

But just in case you don't add string as Oleg suggest we made it so that it will remove the trailing ellipses before displaying the tip.
