   Hey i was making this richedit example and i noticed that the tooltips are show way down in the client's area. I decide to make a little test app and the same happens. Can someone explain why? How do i get throught this without tracking? does anyone know? it seems to work fine for other controls.

Very odd indeed. When adding ToolTips to the toolbar itself, the balloon appears in the right location but the individual ones keep moving with the screen position...

   Problem solved. Says in the manual that Tooltips have the WS_POPUP style and WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW ExStyle but doesnt seem entirelly true. I mentioned the styles and the tooltips appear where they belong: next to tool they belong to. Thn
