Hi, I have a form with several small graphics (imagine a little lightbulb...)
When you hover the mouse over the pictures, they display a little tooltip.
I created these using a button, showing the icon only.
Thing is on the form, yes you get the tip when you hover over the image, but as you get a little hand appear too, it looks to a user like it's a link that you're supposed to click on.
Is there a way to either remove this without losing the tooltip, or I wondered if I could put some script in that just showed the tooltip upon click (mouse up) as well as hover?

Indeed, that's been an issue. That's why I wondered if I could just write a script so that if someone does click on the button, it pops up with the tooltip. Currently, if you hover over and the tooltip is displayed, then you click the icon, the tooltip disappears.

The tooltip can't be made to appear using a script, but you can use something else, like a pop-up menu or an alert.
It's not exactly the same, though...

Here's an idea:
Instead of using a tooltip, use a small text field at the corner of the button. You can the create MouseEnter and MouseExit actions to show/hide the text field. That way, even if the user clicks the button, the "tooltip" will remain visible.

The problem is the only way to prevent the hand mouse icon from disappearing is to set the field to be read-only, but then the tooltip doesn't appear...
