Change in comment on Search results panel item not reflected until call of Ctrl+Z or tip with comment on other item

[DrShark]

To reproduce:
1. Feed some files/folders to Listbox.
2. Add/edit its comment in Ctrl+Z dialog e.g. by adding/removing some lines there. Confirm the change with F2 or OK button.
3. If you have enabled an option to show comments in tooltips, pick mouse pointer on a file which comment was just changed.
The old version of a comment will probably be still shown in a tooltip.
4. Open Ctrl+Z File comment dialog on this file again:
The old version of a comment will probably be still shown in here too.
5. If you have enabled an option to show comments in tooltips, pick mouse pointer on some other file in search results list, or call Ctrl+Z dialog on another file. Then call a tooltip or File comment dialog on a file which comment was just changed again: now it should show correct updated version of the comment.

3. Not confirmed
4. Confirmed

Hmm. I can confirm 3 and 4, but I cannot confirm 5 - for me the only way to show new added/edited comments in either tooltip or after pressing Ctrl+Z is to exit the listbox view (only testet in Windows 7 so far).

I set file color by file with a Comments_Plugin=tc.comment != "" Search parameter - and interestingly enough if I in Search view create a comment for a file, then the color changes for that file, but neither tooltip nor a second Ctrl+Z shows the comment that I created.

My settings:
CommentPreferredFormat=4
CopyComments=6
OleComments=0
FileTipWindows=1
Win32TipWindows=1
Tips=3

I just tried with clear ini + only tips enabled, and it's interesting:
* for files in search results it seems it's enough to show the tooltip of other item to the get changes shown in tooltip or Ctrl+Z dialog for file which comment we changed;
* for folders in search results, to see the changes, search result list in panel has to be destroyed (Ctrl+R in panel) and only after next Feed to listbox the tooltip or Ctrl+Z dialog will show correct changed comment content...

Problem confirmed using TC 10.00.
Tested OK using TC10.50 b1 64bit, b2 64bit, b3 32bit and 64bit.

04.01.22 Fixed: Show comments also in search results after "Feed to Listbox" - "Show" - "Comments" (32/64)

Also tested OK.

I can also no longer reproduce the problem in TC 10.50b3
