Re: ListView tooltips appearing at top-left corner of screen

Any help?

Some more info :
This happens only in VS 2005 projects with XP themes ON.
This does NOT happen in VS 2002/2003 even if XP themes are ON.

I have a control (derived from Control class) based on SysListView32. The
LVS_EX_INFOTIPS style is ON.

I select an item and hover mouse over it to shows its infotip. Then I move
mouse outside the control and use the arrow keys to select a different
item. Now, the tooltip for the item appears in the *top-left corner* of
the screen (0,0) instead of below the selected item.

This strange behavior only occurs if XP themes are enabled.

Any suggestions on what might be causing this?

Thanks
Bob
