Config Toobar: tooltip not always visible

Post by BBServ »

Today I am revising my toolbar and I combined a few buttons that I use, but not as often so I put them in a sub-menu. Since they are not used as often as others I added a tootip on those items to help me remember exactly what they do. To my surprise the tooltip does not dislay when I hover. Tooltips show on items I have added in the main toolbar. Is this an intended behavior?

Thanks in advance for your response.

i did this:

- made root item-submenu 'mmm' with tooltip
- in this submenu, added button 'aaa' with tooltip
- added root button 'bbb' with tooltip

and tooltips for 'mmm' and 'bbb' are working.
of course, the tooltip for 'aaa' don't work because when I hover 'aaa' the menu is dropped down.
so what is wrong?

I expected that 'aaa' would display a tootip since I was allowed to add one. Not an issue, just confirming the behavior.
Thanks for responding.

as I see, dropped down menu-items cannot show tooltips (at least in lazarus).
