SSTAB - How can you have the ToolTip change when mouse hovers over unselected tabs
I am having a problem that does not seem to have an answer. I want the tooltips to change when the user moves the mouse over tabs that do not have the focus. Can this be done?

Your best bet will be to use subclassing of the sstab control and possibly calculating the mouse coordinates to determine the position of the mouse if its over a tab or not. The tabs are all one window of the entire sstab control so its something that will not be separated by child windows or anything like that.

Yeah, I figure that and was hoping someone else had encountered this situation and had code for it. It seems like a lot of work for such a small gain...

Well thats what I think too but I just looked into it with spy++ to determine its window structure. If it had child windows for the tabs and/or tab pages then it would be allot easier but perhaps someone else may have tsome experience with this type of issue.

I just get stuck on figuring out the tab coordinates... Especially after I resize the form...
