Still flickers after update.

Actually I can click it (since it stays visible forever) but will not close; if it's meant to have a close button, then that's the problem, since I can't have that on my system. |

Here is an example script that should demonstrate the problem. I've included the Tooltip function from today's post.
When you run the script, notice that tooltips are assigned to all GUI objects. If you click on any (read: most) of the non-button objects, the Tooltip for that object disappears and never returns again. I hope this helps to demonstrate the problem. Thanks for your help.

I think I've got it now, at least it looks to work 
 I have rewritten the function, please test 
EDIT:
Small bugfix.
17.05.2009 - Destroy and create again should work now, ToolTip() and ToolTip(1)
21.05.09 - New version: ToolTip()

I did a quick test and the problem appears to be fixed. I'll do more thorough testing when I get time but I think you got it. Good work! |

Unfortunately I'm out of this race - links won't show up as clickable so I'm stuck with a static tooltip at the bottom-right of my primary monitor with no way of launching anything or making it go away. And it's green - ugh, do I hate green! 
Ah well, color tastes apart, I'm sorry for not being able to provide feedback anymore. Good luck with the project! |

I'm sad you can't use them, I like the linking feature, never thought It will be possible.
Can you tell me if flickering got better?
| Code: | ToolTip(100,"`nJust an example ToolTip following mouse movements"
,"This ToolTip will be destroyed in " . 4 . " Seconds","o1 I" . GetAssociatedIcon(A_AhkPath) . " B0000FF FFFFFFF")
Start:=A_TickCount
end=
While, end < 10
{
ToolTip(100,"In this example text and Title are updated continuously.`nTickCount:" . A_TickCount,"This ToolTip will be destroyed in " . 11 - Round(end:=(A_TickCount-Start)/1000) . " Seconds","I" . GetAssociatedIcon(A_AhkPath))
}
ToolTip(100)
end=
ToolTip(100,"In this example only position is tracked.","This ToolTip will be destroyed in 10 Seconds","D10 I" . GetAssociatedIcon(A_AhkPath) . " B0000FF FFFFFFF")
ToolTip(100)
end=
ToolTip(100,"`nHere only title is being changed"
,"This ToolTip will be destroyed in 10 Seconds","I" . GetAssociatedIcon(A_AhkPath) . " B0000FF FFFFFFF")
Start:=A_TickCount
While, end < 10
{
ToolTip(100,"","This ToolTip will be destroyed in " . 11 - Round(end:=(A_TickCount-Start)/1000) . " Seconds","I" . GetAssociatedIcon(A_AhkPath))
}
ToolTip(100)

#1 (title and text updating) flickers badly.
#2 (position tracking) is static, displays perfectly.
#3 (title updating) shows faint signs of flicker when updating title, but it's merely noticeable and may get away unnoticed.
I suspect the balloon feature itself is possible on my system due to system files updates. AFAIK, the balloon has first been introduced in WindowsME and it most likely had limited possibilities at the time. With newer versions of Windows, the features have been extended (such as links support, probably, and the close button).
My updates most likely inherit only the ME features so the possibilities are limited. Thanks anyway, you've done a great job and there's a much larger Win2000+ user base to test/use your script. |

I just downloaded today's version. It appears the "Tooltip disappearing and never returning" problem is back.
Thanks for your help. |

Update:
Fixed not to destroy ToolTips on ToolTipClose, otherwise control associated ToolTips were destroyed as well. |

New options G and R:
Find an exaple here: InfoToolTip
| Option G wrote: | Execute one or more internal Labels of ToolTip function only.
For example:
- Track the position only, use ToolTip(1,"","","Xcaret Ycaret gTTM_TRACKPOSITION")
- - When X+Y are empty (= display near mouse position) you can use TTM_UPDATE
- Update text only, use ToolTip(1,"text","","G1"). Note specify L1 if links are used.
- Update title only, use ToolTip(1,"","Title","G1")
- Update background color + text color, specify . between gLabels to execute several:
- - ToolTip(1,"","","BBlue FWhite gTTM_SETTIPBKCOLOR.TTM_SETTIPTEXTCOLOR")
- Following labels can be used: TTM_SETTITLEA, TTM_SETTITLEW, TTM_POPUP, TTM_POP
TTM_SETTIPBKCOLOR, TTM_SETTIPTEXTCOLOR, TTM_TRACKPOSITION
|
| Option R wrote: |
Restrict width. This will restrict the width of the ToolTip.
So if Text is to long it will be shown in several lines
