A SuperToolTip that supports multiple text and image regions.

Remarks

The ToolTipController component allows regular tooltips, flyout hints, and SuperToolTip objects to be displayed for controls. The type of tooltips is specified by the ToolTipType property.

DevExpress simple controls (editors, buttons, listboxes, etc.) generally provide ToolTip and SuperTip properties that allow you to set regular tooltips and SuperToolTip objects respectively. For other controls, you can use the ToolTipController.SetToolTip and ToolTipController.SetSuperTip methods to specify tooltips.
