Tooltip with Click instead of Hover

Hi,

I want to display a tooltip with a mouse click and not just when the
mouse hovers over the control.
I can't derive from tooltip because its sealed.

so what can I do?
thanks in advance.

greetings juergen

I have an application where some forms have many (say 100) UserControls on them (each of which contain a label, an image, and a data entry control), and each UserControl has a ToolTip provider (although really we don't assign ToolTips to most of the controls), and then the UserControl exposes a ToolTipText property which sets the same ToolTip...

I use Visual Studio 2005 and created a very simple Form with one button. I added a Tooltip for that button. It shows fine the first time I hover over that button. But if I let it disappear by the maximum time it should be displayed, it never shows again over that button. Is that intended? And what can I do to make it show again?

I have to take this personally now. Tooltips have been flakey since the dawn of .NET, but to still have to put up with a disappearing tooltip in VS 2008 is getting beyond a joke. Tooltips have always done this, so isn't it about time they were fixed? I have a tooltip that I assign to a button control on my form. I hover over the button and...
