Tooltips in a drawer

Post by sturgis » Mon Mar 23, 2009 5:59 am

Hey, got a quick question about a stack that I want to drawer.

When I set a button tooltip for a button on the stack, the tooltip works fine till I pop it out as a drawer, then the tooltip no longer works. I assume this has something to do with it being treated as a pallet?

How do I restore the tooltip? Do I need to make my own handler?

I'm sure I'm missing something right in front of me, any help is appreciated.

Ah k, just realized that I have to click on the dawer itself somewhere or force a focus change before the tooltip will work.

DOH!

So my modified question is, is there a simple way to make all tooltips show, no matter which stack/card etc is active at the time?
