Hi Tanya,
I didn't realize this was considered a problem worth contacting support over.
It does not seem like it is SmartBears fault because some other programs popup window won't let you move your mouse over it.
Perhaps my explanation was not that good.
I have created a video for you to look at instead.
If you think the behavior in the video is not expected then I will write a support ticket.
I was unable to attach the video...
Could I send it to you in an email or do you have another idea? I don't want to open a support ticket until you can see what it is i'm seeing. I have a feeling I'm just not explaining it right so it sounds like a bug.
Hi Gratis,
I tried to replicate your steps. I can see what your doing there and it is very clever. I was unable to get it to work after a few attempts. I was only ever able to capture the parent object to the tooltip I am looking for. I think the method I created actually works a bit better and is easier to use. I hope you give my way a try as I think you may be happy with it. Here is the basic idea behind what I did and it works really well.
myButton.HoverMouse(-1,-1);
Delay(1000);
var toolTip = Sys.Process("devenv").Find("Name", "*"+nameToSearch+"*", 1000);
Thanks,
Levi
