No tooltips anywhere on Installation Kit Dialog

Good day.

I'm trying to set tooltip on some controls of my installation dialogs.
But whatever values or whatever controls I use, there is no tooltip that appears during installation process.
I move cursor over control and wait, wait, wait..... but nothing appears.

Maybe I don't understand something, but tooltip property is useless for me.

(In any other application tooltips appear correctly, almost instantly).

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,

Re: No tooltips anywhere on Installation Kit Dialog

Hello Daniil,

Usually a tooltip attribute is available for controls with which the user can interact with. (e.g. button, edit box, check box, etc.)
It does not apply for controls like static text or other similar.

All the best,

Thanks, I missed the moment with static.
BTW I set tooltip for edit and it works.
