Description Mike Wilson CLA 2001-10-11 14:20:21 EDT 
Tooltips on Linux don't work unless you move the cursor a pixel.
STEPS:
1) Put the mouse cursor over top of a button with a tooltip
2) Wait a second
3) Move the mouse a pixel
The tooltip shows up (This is not acceptable! but it is a workaround)

NOTES:

		The problem is that you have to wait for the hover delay
		on each tool item.

	McQ (09/05/2001 3:38:50 PM) -
		Low priority.

You still have to wait for the tooltip delay in most cases, but the 
CTabFolder has been optimized to bring up tool tips quickly once the first 
one has appeared.
