Hello,

I have a question regarding the tip window. More precisely the one that pops up in an ArrayCtrl when hovering a cell with text that is too large to be shown completely within the cell boundaries. But I am interested in this on a general level as well.
The question I have is whether it is possible to influence what (and how) is displayed in these tips. I tried with a custom Display object attached to the column, but I have the impression that's not were the tip is drawn.
I know there is a way to statically set the tip text (Ctrl::Info), but I am more interested in dynamic behaviour. A callback or overridable method would both suit my purpose.

Thanks in advance,

Frank
