I'd like to give individual items of my tree tooltips. I'm using WTL, but having some difficulty with it. All the per-item tooltips on the Internet are for MFC, and the relevant functions aren't available in WTL. I'm guessing I might have to trap WM_MOUSE messages moving over the tree control, set a timer that will fire when the tooltip delay elapses, check the mouse pointer again, and if it hasn't moved, display the tooltip at the current position. Yuck. I can't use infotips - they pop up nearly instantaneously, which is extremely annoying. If I could somehow delay them so that they'd resemble tooltips, that'd be perfect.
