The following table shows the styles that are supported by Windows Embedded CE.

ToolTip style Description

TTS_ALWAYSTIP

Indicates that the ToolTip control appears when the cursor is on a tool, even if the ToolTip control's owner window is inactive. Without this style, the ToolTip appears only when the tool's owner window is active.

TTS_NOPREFIX

Prevents the system from automatically stripping an ampersand character from a string. This allows an application to use the same string as both a menu item and as text in a ToolTip control.

Remarks

A ToolTip control always has the WS_POPUP and WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW window styles, regardless of whether you specify them when creating the control.
