HI,

 
On the system button controls ,will it be possible to get a tooltip when the popup bar is out.
 
for ex:- in word --when the cursor is over the print cmd the flyout/pop up bar and tooltip are seen. I would like to get the exact same behaviour in our app....But when I move the cursor I do see the tooltip for a second and then the flyout/popup bar jumps out. ...
 
Is there a setting to show the tooltips always on controls ...even when the popup happens.

Add

pCommandBars->GetCommandBarsOptions()->bShowPopupBarToolTip = TRUE;

I already have this setting
pCommandBars->GetCommandBarsOptions()->bShowPopupBarToolTip = TRUE;
 
This helped me get the tooltips on the flyout/popup bar
But did not help me in getting the tooltip on the split popup button itself---when expanded
 
This problem can be seen on any split button on the ribbon bar too.
 
I use the following call to create the split popup button.
 
pControl = CXTPControlPopup::CreateControlPopup(xtpControlSplitButtonPopup);
 
so my question is " when the split popup is expanded ( flyout/popup bar shows up) ---can we get tooltips on the split button itself" ---Office 2007 Word handles this ( above picture)"
 
Additionally I do dee a splitter line by default on the sytem button split button popups ...But in office 2007 I do see the splitter line only when moving the cursor over that specific button. Is this possible ???
 
Thanks in advance

Now Tooltips appeared only for top popup. We will add option for future.
