This is just a guess, as I haven't tried anything quite like this myself, but tooltips are basically little windows floating over everything else, so maybe it is possible to get this window from the windowslist [NSApp windows]. You can then use a timer to refresh the windows contentView every second or so, hopefully it will display for the new string when refreshing.

Good luck, Patrick

Hi,
I want to be able to change a view's tool tip when it (the tool tip) is already showing. Just using -setToolTip: doesn't work nor does using -removeAllToolTips and then setting it (the remove works and hides the tool tip but it doesn't come back up without re- entering the view). Is there a way to do this (or to maybe force a tool tip to pop up since I can already remove it on demand)?
Thanks,
paul
