Is there a way to change the "fadeout" of a tooltip? In other words, it'll
display for about 10 seconds which may or may not be long enough for a user
to read the tooltip. I'd like to programatically adjust it if possible, and
if that's not, I would like to increase the time duration.

Anyone know if you can do this?

Thanks

You can't. This is a local machine setting.

You are correct, Maxim. My apologies for the misinformation.

Can this be changed from inside the codebehind?

What I'd like to do is display a tooltip for the same item, but saying
different things depending on the access level of the user as he enters the
page. For some user levels, I want the tooltip to display longer, but could
live with it if I could only choose it to be a length throughout the site.

I have an existing dotnet website, what do you need to add to the project?
If I add the tooltip_js.htc and the tooltip_vbs.htc to the project, where
are they added?

Yes - that's the one I'm looking at as well.

Wasn't sure where the pages needed to go, or if the script needed to be
yanked into the aspx portion of the page I was working on. Wasn't sure if
the htc file took over settings for the entire project or not.

I'm running into this issue as well. Can anyone provide a more detailed response on what you need to do. I need to change the Tooltip.Duration, but I don't know if its simply a line of code or if I need to include a file.

Thanks
