dotnet windows forms: Hi,

Is it normal that tool tips appear on menu items of a menu strip
although the ShowItemToolTips property of the menu strip is set to
false? I know that setting the ToolTipText property of a menu item to
an empty string prevents tool tips from being shown but I need this
property to fill the status bar panal when the mouse hovers over a menu
item. Additionally it's very strange that this behaviour doesn't appear
with menu items that are directly added to the menu strip's
ToolStripItemCollection (that means these items who have no parent menu
item).

Can anybody tell me something about that?

Thanks,
Steffen

Not a very good solution but using the Tag property of the menu item
instead of ToolTipText property works fine.
