Pseudo-ToolTip and PDF Artwork?

I had a similar post here: [url]http://www.acrobatusers.com/forums/aucbb/viewtopic.php?pid=46573[/url]
radzmar showed me how to change a tooltip in FormCalc.
But, there is no way for that coding to work because I have PDF Artwork in the background. Is there anyway t change the ToolTip settign in the Accessibility Tab? Or even make a fake ToolTip to get around this?
Maybe an invisible TextField that follows the mouse around and make it show up when hovering over an object?
I'm not really sure, sorry, I'm new in PDF design, so...
Just curious if there is a way to make a dynamic ToolTip and still have PDF Artwork.
Please and thanks,

Hi,

while trying around with popups with a pdf I remembered your question here.

You can create a Pseudo-Tooltip with the popup parameter.

var MyToolTip = app.popUpMenu("This is a tooltip");
Hust put this code into the enter event of your form fields.
It will show up if you enter the field per tab or mouse.

Hope this helps!
