Tooltip Flashing
-
Windows explorer shows a tooltip if the contents of a column is not entirely visible. I'm trying to emulate that behaviour but when I move the tooltip to cover the clipped text I end up with a flashing tooltip. This seems to be because the tooltip is now under the cursor which causes it to be closed immediately which leaves the cursor back over the clipped text which fires the tooltip and around we go. Has anyone run into this before and found a solution?

Just a guess but try adding the WS_EX_TRANSPARENT style to your tooltip and see if it changes anything, don't know what it might screw up though...
