I was quite happy to see this addition in Q3 after waiting for it expectantly.
However , I cannot get it to work. I am adding screen tips as I always did
on the ribbonbar control previously (always worked fine). The screentip
never shows when I mouseover the control (radbutton).
I decided to trap the screentipneeded event and found that even though
the screentip was present in the designer, that the event found the item
to be a null.
I then tried programatically adding the screentip on application startup ,
this time the event showed that the screentip was not a null but a valid
screentip. Still the same problem though , the screentip never shows.
I assume I am missing something simplistic but I am doing nothing any
differently from before.
