Tooltip inconsistencies between/within 32/64 Bit version

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Tooltip inconsistencies between/within 32/64 Bit version

Post by *Dalai »

Hi there,

I noticed some inconsistencies of the various tooltips TC uses. Test system: Win7 x64.

I've uploaded some pics showing the differences:
TC 32 Bit - Compare by Contents: Tooltip without shadow and standard Delphi color.
TC 64 Bit - Compare by Contents: Tooltip with shadow but with standard color set by the OS.
TC 64 Bit - Buttonbar: Tooltip with shadow, but again using standard Delphi color.

I didn't upload a screenshot of the buttonbar of the 32 Bit version because the tooltip design is the same as in the CbC window linked above (without shadow, standard Delphi color).

Are there any efforts and/or plans to match all these different tooltips to one design, preferably the one the OS uses too?

Greets,
Dalai

TC uses standard Delphi or Lazarus tooltips where only one line tips are needed, but my own where multi-line tips or special formatting may be needed. Currently it's not planned to use the same tips everywhere.
