Detailed Description

The ToolTip class is used within anXApp.

There can be one tooltip per mouse.

To give a window a tooltip, simply call win->tooltip("blah new tip"). Make sure that anXApp::tooltips is set to an adequate number of milliseconds, and anXApp will hover the tooltip near the current mouse position until the mouse moves again.

Multiline tooltips are simply one char array with the standard '\n' characters to delimit the lines.

Todo:
This class is basically a MessageBar without the input handling, maybe use that one instead for automatic text wrapping?
