SetToolBarTips:Void toolbar:Int32, tips:String

Parameter	Mode	Type	Default	Description
toolbar	In	Int32	required	Handle of a toolbar.
tips	In	String	required	Hints separated by commas.

Description

Sets the hints for the icons of a toolbar, as a list separated by commas with one for each icon. They are supposed to pop up when the mouse rests over an icon.

Differences

• A hint shows below its button after the mouse rested on it for half a second, in a yellow box, and goes when the mouse moves to another button or is pressed. Spaces between buttons do not take a hint.
