[malcev]

Tooltip does not appear in front of taskbar on Win10.
Instead, it shows at the top of screen.

Code: Select all

f11::
ToolTip, test, 100, A_ScreenHeight-20

BeautifulToolTip has a fix for that.

I think it can be fixed in ahk source code.

BeautifulToolTip is beautiful, but there is a tiny problem: to display such a ToolTip, you have to increase your script by 100500 lines of code.

BeautifulToolTip has a fix for that.

No, it just doesn't use tooltip controls.

ToolTip cannot be used to place a tooltip in front of the taskbar on Windows 8 and later. This is due to OS behaviour and by design.

The tooltip appearing at the top of the screen was reported again in another topic and fixed by v1.1.34.00.
