Hi,

I don't know if this is normal behaviour but tooltip doesn't show actual value of item when first time mouse hoovers item. Only when mouse hoovers the second time it shows actual value of PropertyItem. I attached test to see what I mean. I hope this can be solved somehow...

Hi,

Problem that tooltipcontext get tooltiptext before you set new tooltip. Thin kbetter change tooltip in ValueChanged event for item and not in MouseOver for Category.

Hi Oleg,

I don't understand... If I set .Tooltip = "" I get no tooltip. I do this in same event. Why TooltipContext "knows" I did set tooltip to ""?

Please see changed test project:

I really need this because I have extended markup tooltips for category items and allow the user to turn on/off the tooltips. Is there another way to get arounds this?

Thanks a lot
