ToolTips
A ToolTip is a short string that appears in an enclosing rectangle when the user pauses the mouse pointer over a field-level widget. ToolTips are widely used in Windows applications. For example, ToolTips are often used to provide labels for toolbar buttons, as shown in the following figure.
