Why not just limit the text you assign to the tooltip?

How long Tooltip shows a text depends how long the text is. As Jan
pointed out, you need to limit the text by trimming or removing
specified range or use substring to set specified part of text.

Additionaly, tooltip's text is splitted into lines automatically when
the text is longer than your screen resolution's width, if your
concern was about aligning the long text of tooltip.

Hope this helps,
