The System.Windows.Forms.Control to display the ToolTip for.

Remarks

The version of the erload:System.Windows.Forms.ToolTip.Show method displays the ToolTip for the specified control modally; that is, the ToolTip will be displayed until the ToolTip.Hide(IWin32Window) method is called, or until the parent form is minimized, hidden, or closed. The ToolTip is positioned in the center of the associated control.

Applications running in partial trust must assert the System.Security.Permissions.UIPermissionWindow.AllWindows permission to use this method, as erload:System.Windows.Forms.ToolTip.Show can control the display and location of a ToolTip independent of user action.
