I want to be able to put paragraphs within the screentips. I currently have a bunch of links to HTML pop-ups and would rather have these screentips instead. By default they only stay on for 5 seconds so even reading a few sentences is difficult.

I don't think you can increase the amount of time the tool tip stays up.

We did a form for a client one time a year or so ago that implemented a tool tip in the taskpane (DHTML) and my developers had a lot more control over the tool tip there than in the default InfoPath tool tips. You might want to think about something like this as it would give you more flexibility I think.

How much content do you want in the tooltip?

Screen Tip Size

Well, I have searched and searched and could not find anything related to this so I figured I would ask here. Has anyone lengthened the size of screen tips so they accept more content? Also, has anyone made the screentips stay up longer? I believe they currently stay up for 5 seconds. Thank you.
