Remarks

See the ToolTipLocation topic for information on possible tooltip window positions.

When a tooltip is displayed for a RibbonControl’s bar item, its location is determined automatically. The ToolTipLocation setting is ignored in this instance.

When a flyout tooltip is shown with a beak, its location can be set to one of four positions: top center, bottom center, left center, or right center.

To customize the relative position of the tooltip, you can handle the ToolTipController.CalcSize event.

To specify the amount of space between the tooltip and the associated visual element, use the ToolTipControllerShowEventArgs.ToolTipIndent property.
